Geneva Study Bible

And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though {d} he bear long with them?

(d) Though he seems slow in avenging the harm done to his own.


People's New Testament

18:7 Shall not God avenge his own elect? If an unjust, hard-hearted judge can be moved by the persistent prayers of a widow, will not the tender, loving, good Father hear the cries of his children?

Though he bear long with them. Rather, as in the Revised Version, He is long-suffering over them. He is long-suffering for them for their own good, and long-suffering towards their enemies in order that they may have opportunity to repent.
