'Long' in the Bible

Indeed, as long as I am in this tabernacle, I consider it right to stir you up by way of a reminder,

And in their greed they will exploit you with deceptive words. Their condemnation pronounced long ago is not sitting idly by; their destruction is not asleep.

For they deliberately suppress this fact, that by the word of God heavens existed long ago and an earth was formed out of water and by means of water.
