他願萬人得救、而達到真理之認識。

還是你輕看他慈惠寬容與恆忍之豐富，不知道上帝的慈惠正領着你悔改麼？

因為異象還在等候它的定期；它向着結局喘吁吁地急進，必不令人失望。就使它躭延，你還要等候；因為它一定臨到，必不遲延。』

因此永恆主必等候來恩待你們；因此永恆主必興起來憐憫你們；因為永恆主是公平的上帝；凡等候他的全都有福。

但你呢、主啊，你乃是有憐憫有恩惠的上帝；你不輕易發怒，而有豐盛的堅愛和忠信。

上帝揀選的人晝夜向他喊救，他縱然在他們的事上延持着，難道總不給他們伸冤麼？我告訴你們，他總要快快地給他們伸冤的。然而人子來的時候，難道得見信心在地上麼？』

我給了她時間、讓她悔改；她又不願意改悔她的淫亂。

然而我蒙了憐恤，正因為耶穌基督要在我這罪魁上證顯他萬分的恆忍，好給將來信靠他而得永生的人做標本。

你們並且要以我們的主的恆忍為得救的機緣；就如我們親愛的弟兄保羅、照所賜給他的智慧、也給你們寫了信了。

永恆主在他面前經過，宣告說：『永恆主耶和華，有憐憫有恩惠的上帝，不輕易發怒，而有豐盛的堅愛和忠信，

『因為還有短短的一會兒、那將要來的就來，必不遲延；

對從前在挪亞的日子那些硬心不信的、宣傳。當時樓船正建備着，上帝的恆忍還切候着，進入樓船的並不多，只是八個人，由水得了救度。

倘若上帝雖有意要證顯他的義怒，播知他的能力，卻用大恆忍寬容那應受義怒的、準備進入滅亡的、器皿，

我使我的義氣臨近，並不遠離；我的拯救必不遲延；我必將拯救施於錫安，將我的榮美賜給以色列。』

你若這樣行，上帝也這樣吩咐你，你就能站得住，這眾民也就能夠安安然然回到他們的地方去。』

如今，你若赦免他們的罪，就好啦；倘若不然，就求你從你所記的冊上把我塗抹掉吧。』

永恆主對摩西面對面地說話，好像人對朋友說話一樣。摩西回到營裏，惟有他的助手、一個青年人、嫩的兒子約書亞、不離開會棚。
