He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool. | Lying lips conceal hatred, and anyone who slanders another is a fool. |
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. | The Lord does not delay in keeping his promise, as some think in terms of delay, but he is patient with you. It is not his wish that any should perish but rather that all should be brought to repentance. |
