Romans chapter 9

Bible Version
Book
Chapter
1
I sayG3004 the truthG225 in Christ,G5547 I lieG5574 not, my conscienceG4893 alsoG4828 bearingG4828 me witnessG4828 in the HolyG40 Ghost,G4151
2
That I haveG2076 greatG3173 heavinessG3077 and continualG88 sorrowG3601 in my heart.G2588
3
For I could wishG2172 that myselfG846 were accursedG331 from ChristG5547 for my brothers,G80 my kinsmenG4773 accordingG2596 to the flesh:G4561
4
WhoG3748 are Israelites;G2475 to whomG3739 pertains the adoption,G5206 and the glory,G1391 and the covenants,G1242 and the givingG3548 of the law,G3548 and the serviceG2999 of God, and the promises;G1860
5
WhoseG3739 are the fathers,G3962 and of whomG3739 as concerningG2596 the fleshG4561 ChristG5547 came, whoG3588 is overG1909 all,G3956 GodG2316 blessedG2128 for ever.G165 Amen.G281
6
Not as thoughG3754 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 has taken noneG1601 effect.G1601 For they are not allG3956 Israel,G2474 whichG3588 are of Israel:G2474
7
Neither,G3761 becauseG3754 they are the seedG4690 of Abraham,G11 are they allG3956 children:G5043 but, In IsaacG2464 shall your seedG4690 be called.G2564
8
That is, They which are the childrenG5043 of the flesh,G4561 theseG5023 are not the childrenG5043 of God:G2316 but the childrenG5043 of the promiseG1860 are countedG3049 for the seed.G4690
9
For thisG3778 is the wordG3056 of promise,G1860 AtG2596 thisG5126 timeG2540 will I come,G2064 and SarahG4564 shall haveG2071 a son.G5207
10
And not onlyG3440 this; but when RebeccaG4479 alsoG2532 had conceivedG2845 G2192 by one,G1520 even by our fatherG3962 Isaac;G2464
11
(For the children being not yetG3380 born,G1080 neitherG3366 having doneG4238 anyG5100 goodG18 orG2228 evil,G2556 that the purposeG4286 of GodG2316 accordingG2596 to electionG1589 might stand,G3306 not of works,G2041 but of him that calls;G2564)
12
It was saidG4483 to her, The elderG3187 shall serveG1398 the younger.G1640
13
As it is written,G1125 JacobG2384 haveG2071 I loved,G25 but EsauG2269 haveG2071 I hated.G3404
14
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 then?G3767 Is there unrighteousnessG93 with God?G2316 GodG3361 G1096 forbid.G3361 G1096
15
For he saidG3004 to Moses,G3475 I will have mercyG1653 on whomG3739 I will have mercy,G1653 and I will have compassionG3627 on whomG3739 I will have compassion.G3627
16
SoG686 thenG686 it is not of him that wills,G2309 norG3761 of him that runs,G5143 but of GodG2316 that showsG1653 mercy.G1653
17
For the scriptureG1124 saidG3004 to Pharaoh,G5328 Even for thisG5124 sameG846 purpose have I raisedG1825 you up, that I might showG1731 my powerG1411 in you, and that my nameG3686 might be declaredG1229 throughoutG1722 allG3956 the earth.G1093
18
ThereforeG686 G3767 has he mercyG1653 on whomG3739 he willG2309 have mercy, and whomG3739 he willG2309 he hardens.G4645
19
You will sayG2046 thenG3767 to me, WhyG5101 does he yetG2089 find fault?G3201 For whoG5101 has resistedG436 his will?G1013
20
NoG3304 but, O man,G444 whoG5101 areG1488 you that replyG470 againstG470 God?G2316 Shall the thingG4110 formedG4110 sayG2046 to him that formedG4110 it, WhyG5101 have you madeG4160 me thus?G3779
21
HasG2192 not the potterG2763 powerG1849 over the clay,G4081 of the sameG846 lumpG5445 to makeG4160 one vesselG4632 to honor,G5092 and anotherG3739 to dishonor?G819
22
What ifG1487 God,G2316 willingG2309 to showG1731 his wrath,G3709 and to makeG1107 his powerG1415 known,G1107 enduredG5342 with muchG4183 long-sufferingG3115 the vesselsG4632 of wrathG3709 fittedG2675 to destruction:G684
23
And that he might makeG1107 knownG1107 the richesG4149 of his gloryG1391 onG1909 the vesselsG4632 of mercy,G1656 whichG3739 he had beforeG4282 preparedG4282 to glory,G1391
24
EvenG2532 us, whomG3739 he has called,G2564 not of the JewsG2453 only,G3440 but alsoG2532 of the Gentiles?G1484
25
As he saidG3004 alsoG2532 in Osee,G5617 I will callG2564 them my people,G2992 which were not my people;G2992 and her beloved,G25 which was not beloved.G25
26
And it shall comeG1511 to pass, that in the placeG5117 whereG3757 it was saidG4483 to them, You are not my people;G2992 thereG1563 shall they be calledG2564 the childrenG5207 of the livingG2198 God.G2316
27
EsaiasG2268 alsoG1161 criesG2896 concerningG5228 Israel,G2474 ThoughG1437 the numberG706 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 be as the sandG285 of the sea,G2281 a remnantG2640 shall be saved:G4982
28
For he will finishG4931 the work,G3056 and cutG4932 it shortG4932 in righteousness:G1343 becauseG3754 a shortG4932 workG3056 will the LordG2962 makeG4160 on the earth.G1093
29
And as EsaiasG2268 saidG4280 before,G4280 ExceptG1508 the LordG2962 of SabaothG4519 had leftG1459 us a seed,G4690 we had beenG1096 as Sodoma,G4670 and been madeG3666 likeG3666 to Gomorrha.G1116
30
WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 then?G3767 That the Gentiles,G1484 whichG3588 followedG1377 not after righteousness,G1343 have attainedG2638 to righteousness,G1343 evenG1161 the righteousnessG1343 whichG3588 is of faith.G4102
31
But Israel,G2474 which followedG1377 after the lawG3551 of righteousness,G1343 has not attainedG5348 to the lawG3551 of righteousness.G1343
32
Why?G1302 BecauseG3754 they soughtG2212 it not by faith,G4102 but as it were by the worksG2041 of the law.G3551 For they stumbledG4350 at that stumbling stone;G3037
33
As it is written,G1125 Behold,G2400 I layG5087 in SionG4622 a stumbling stoneG3037 G4348 and rockG4073 of offense:G4625 and whoeverG3956 G3588 believesG4100 onG1909 him shall not be ashamed.G2617
