Or despisest thou the riches of His goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
New King James Version

Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

Or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and forbearance and patience, not realizing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?
New International Version

Or do you show contempt for the riches of His kindness, tolerance and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness leads you towards repentance?
The Amplified Bible

Or are you [so blind as to] trifle with and presume upon and despise and underestimate the wealth of His kindness and forbearance and longsuffering patience? Are you unmindful or actually ignorant [of the fact] that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repent (to change your mind and inner man to accept God’s will)?
Wuest’s Expanded Translation

Or, the wealth of His kindness and forbearance and longsuffering are you treating with contempt, being ignorant that the goodness of God is leading you to repentance?
Phillips’ Modern English

Are you, perhaps, misinterpreting God’s generosity and patient mercy towards you as weakness on His part? Don’t you realise that God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?
Williams’ Language of the People

Do you think so little of the riches of God’s kindness, forbearance, and patience, not conscious that His kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

That Reference This Scripture

  1. Blessings?; The End Time Men - W.W. Fischer We have often been accused of seeking blessings rather than Jesus, and rightfully so.

  2. 6. Do What They Need; Poverty in the Body of Christ - Neil Girrard Something which should be obvious (but often isn’t) is that vicarious giving (charity, random acts of kindness, etc.) has robbed us of our need and responsibility to give to the poor what they need.

  3. Fellowship; The End Time Men - W.W. Fischer Obviously, what is acclaimed as fellowship in most Christian churches isn’t really Christian fellowship.

  4. Spiritual Fruit; Lords of Darkness - Neil Girrard For every fruit of the Spirit of God, there is a counterfeit or alternative fruit of the spirit of mammon.
