What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
What if God, although choosing to show his wrath and make his power known, bore with great patience the objects of his wrath — prepared for destruction?
Εἰ δὲ θέλων ὁ Θεὸς ἐνδείξασθαι τὴν ὀργήν, καὶ γνωρίσαι τὸ δυνατὸν αὐτοῦ, ἤνεγκεν ἐν πολλῇ μακροθυμίᾳ σκεύη ὀργῆς κατηρτισμένα εἰς ἀπώλειαν·
Ei de thelōn o Theos endeixasthai tēn orgēn, kai gnōrisai to dynaton aytoy, ēnegken en pollē makrothymia skeyē orgēs katērtismena eis apōleian·
