Romans 9:14-21

14What shall we sayG3004 thenG3767? Is there unrighteousnessG93 with GodG2316? GodG2316 forbid. 15For he saith to MosesG3475, I will have mercyG1653 on whom I have mercyG1653, and I will have compassionG3627 on whom I have compassionG3627. 16So thenG3767 it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of GodG2316 that hath mercyG1653. 17For the scriptureG1124 saith unto PharaohG5328, For this very purpose did I raise thee up, that I might showG1731 in thee my powerG1411, and that my nameG3686 might be published abroad in all the earthG1093. 18So thenG3767 he hath mercyG1653 on whom he will, and whom he will he hardeneth.

19Thou wilt sayG3004 thenG3767 unto me, WhyG5101 doth he stillG2089 find faultG3201? For who withstandeth his will? 20Nay but, O manG444, who art thou that repliest against GodG2316? Shall the thing formed sayG3004 to him that formed it, WhyG5101 didst thou makeG4160 me thusG3779? 21Or hath not the potterG2763 a rightG1849 over the clayG4081, from the sameG846 lumpG5445 to makeG4160 oneG3739 part a vesselG4632 unto honorG5092, and another unto dishonorG819?
