Verse 9

The Lord{G2962} is{G1019} not{G3756} slack{G1019}{(G5719)} concerning his promise{G1860}, as{G5613} some men{G5100} count{G2233}{(G5736)} slackness{G1022}; but{G235} is longsuffering{G3114}{(G5719)} to{G1519} us-ward{G2248}, not{G3361} willing{G1014}{(G5740)} that any{G5100} should perish{G622}{(G5641)}, but{G235} that all{G3956} should come{G5562}{(G5658)} to{G1519} repentance{G3341}.
