And Jehovah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth,

Jehovah is slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness, forgiving iniquity and transgression; and that will by no means clear the guilty , visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.

But thou, O Lord, art a God merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth.

O Jehovah, thou knowest; remember me, and visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered reproach.

But forasmuch as he had not wherewith to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

So his fellow-servant fell down and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.

And shall not God avenge his elect, that cry to him day and night, and yet he is longsuffering over them?

especially because thou art expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

with all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, unto all patience and longsuffering with joy;

howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief might Jesus Christ show forth all his longsuffering, for an ensample of them that should thereafter believe on him unto eternal life.

A factious man after a first and second admonition refuse;

that ye be not sluggish, but imitators of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receive the early and latter rain.

Take, brethren, for an example of suffering and of patience, the prophets who spake in the name of the Lord.

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some count slackness; but is longsuffering to you-ward, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote unto you;
