GNT 2 Timothy 2:15 - SPOUDASON SEAUTON DOKIMON PARASTHSAI TWi QEWi,
ERGATHN ANEPAISCUNTON, ORQOTOMOUNTA TON LOGON THS ALHQEIAS.

LXX Proverbs 3:6 - EN PASAIS hODOIS SOU GNWRIZE AUTHN hINA ORQOTOMHi TAS
hODOUS SOU hO DE POUS SOU OU MH PROSKOPTHi

LXX Proverbs 11:5 - DIKAIOSUNH AMWMOUS ORQOTOMEI hODOUS ASEBEIA DE
PERIPIPTEI ADIKIAi

In researching the verb ORQOTOMEW, I read the following statement in
BAGD: "found elsewh. independently of the NT only Pr 3:6; 11:5..." Am I
reading that correctly? Aside from the three references above, are there
no other examples of the verb ORQOTOMEW in KOINH Greek literature?
Nothing in the papyri? Nothing in early Patristic writings? Would
someone please confirm or correct my understanding here?

Thank you in advance for your help in this matter.
