Romans 9 KJV

¹I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, God Holy Spirit Jesus Christ

²That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.

³For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: God Jesus Christ

⁴Who are Israelites; to whom [pertaineth] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service [of God], and the promises; God Jacob

⁵Whose [are] the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ [came], who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. God Jesus Christ

⁶Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they [are] not all Israel, which are of Israel: God Jacob

⁷Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, [are they] all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. Abraham Isaac

⁸That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these [are] not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. God YHVH

⁹For this [is] the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son. Sarah

¹⁰And not only [this]; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, [even] by our father Isaac; Isaac Rebekah

¹¹(For [the children] being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;) God YHVH

¹²It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.

¹³As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. Jacob Esau

¹⁴What shall we say then? [Is there] unrighteousness with God? God forbid. God

¹⁵For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. Moses

¹⁶So then [it is] not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. God

¹⁷For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth. Pharaoh

¹⁸Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will [have mercy], and whom he will he hardeneth.

¹⁹Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

²⁰Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed [it], Why hast thou made me thus? God

²¹Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

²²[What] if God, willing to shew [his] wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: God

²³And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

²⁴Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles? Judah

²⁵As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. Hosea

²⁶And it shall come to pass, [that] in the place where it was said unto them, Ye [are] not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God. God

²⁷Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved: Jacob Isaiah

²⁸For he will finish the work, and cut [it] short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. God

²⁹And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha. God Jesus Christ Isaiah Gomorrah Sodom

³⁰What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.

³¹But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. Jacob

³²Wherefore? Because [they sought it] not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;

³³As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. Jerusalem Zion
