પ્રભુ ભક્તોને પરીક્ષણમાંથી છોડાવવાનું જાણે છે, અને અન્યાયીઓને તથા વિશેષે કરીને જેઓ દુર્વાસનાઓથી દૈહિક વિકારો પ્રમાણે ચાલે છે.
हिन्दी2 पतरस २:९
तो प्रभु के भक्तों को परीक्षा में से निकाल लेना और अधर्मियों को न्याय के दिन तक दण्ड की दशा में रखना भी जानता है।

In context

7and delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked

8(for that righteous man dwelling among them was tormented in his righteous soul from day to day with seeing and hearing lawless deeds),

9then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment,

10but chiefly those who walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries,

11whereas angels, though greater in might and power, don’t bring a slanderous judgment against them before the Lord.
