2PE 3:9

9 [Therefore, you should not think that because Christ has not yet come back to judge people], the Lord God is ◄delaying/slow to do► what he promised. Some people think that this is so, [and they say that Christ will never come back]. But [you should understand that the reason why Christ has not yet come back to judge people is that] God is being patient with you, because he does not want anyone to be lost [eternally]. Instead, he wants everyone to turn away from their sinful behavior.
