Romans:9:1 @
I say the truth in Christ ,
I lie not ,
my conscience bearing witness with me in the Holy Spirit ,
asv @
Romans:9:2 @
that I have great sorrow and unceasing pain in my heart .
asv @
Romans:9:3 @
For I could wish that I myself were anathema from Christ for my brethren '
s sake ,
my kinsmen according to the flesh :
asv @
Romans:9:4 @
who are Israelites ;
whose is the adoption ,
and the glory ,
and the covenants ,
and the giving of the law ,
and the service of God ,
and the promises ;
asv @
Romans:9:5 @
whose are the fathers ,
and of whom is Christ as concerning the flesh ,
who is over all ,
God blessed for ever .
Amen .
asv @
Romans:9:6 @
But it is not as though the word of God hath come to nought .
For they are not all Israel ,
that are of Israel :
asv @
Romans:9:7 @
neither ,
because they are Abraham '
s seed ,
are they all children :
but ,
In Isaac shall thy seed be called .
asv @
Romans:9:8 @
That is ,
it is not the children of the flesh that are children of God ;
but the children of the promise are reckoned for a seed .
asv @
Romans:9:9 @
For this is a word of promise ,
According to this season will I come ,
and Sarah shall have a son .
asv @
Romans:9:10 @
And not only so ;
but Rebecca also having conceived by one ,
even by our father Isaac --
asv @
Romans:9:11 @
for the children being not yet born ,
neither having done anything good or bad ,
that the purpose of God according to election might stand ,
not of works ,
but of him that calleth ,
asv @
Romans:9:12 @
it was said unto her ,
The elder shall serve the younger .
asv @
Romans:9:13 @
Even as it is written ,
Jacob I loved ,
but Esau I hated .
asv @
Romans:9:14 @
What shall we say then ?
Is there unrighteousness with God ?
God forbid .
asv @
Romans:9:15 @
For he saith to Moses ,
I will have mercy on whom I have mercy ,
and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion .
asv @
Romans:9:16 @
So then it is not of him that willeth ,
nor of him that runneth ,
but of God that hath mercy .
asv @
Romans:9:17 @
For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh ,
For this very purpose did I raise thee up ,
that I might show in thee my power ,
and that my name might be published abroad in all the earth .
asv @
Romans:9:18 @
So then he hath mercy on whom he will ,
and whom he will be hardeneth .
asv @
Romans:9:19 @
Thou wilt say then unto me ,
Why doth he still find fault ?
For who withstandeth his will ?
asv @
Romans:9:20 @
Nay but ,
O man ,
who art thou that repliest against God ?
Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it ,
Why didst thou make me thus ?
asv @
Romans:9:21 @
Or hath not the potter a right over the clay ,
from the same lump to make one part a vessel unto honor ,
and another unto dishonor ?
asv @
Romans:9:22 @
What if God ,
willing to show his wrath ,
and to make his power known ,
endured with much longsuffering vessels of wrath fitted unto destruction :
asv @
Romans:9:23 @
and that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy ,
which he afore prepared unto glory ,
asv @
Romans:9:24 @
even us ,
whom he also called ,
not from the Jews only ,
but also from the Gentiles ?
asv @
Romans:9:25 @
As he saith also in Hosea ,
I will call that my people ,
which was not my people ;
And her beloved ,
that was not beloved .
asv @
Romans:9:26 @
And it shall be ,
that in the place where it was said unto them ,
Ye are not my people ,
There shall they be called sons of the living God .
asv @
Romans:9:27 @
And Isaiah crieth concerning Israel ,
If the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea ,
it is the remnant that shall be saved :
asv @
Romans:9:28 @
for the Lord will execute his word upon the earth ,
finishing it and cutting it short .
asv @
Romans:9:29 @
And ,
as Isaiah hath said before ,
Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed ,
We had become as Sodom ,
and had been made like unto Gomorrah .
