Romans 9:17-24

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? 22What if GodG2316, willingG2309 to showG1731 his wrathG3709, and to makeG1107 his powerG1415 known, endured with muchG4183 longsuffering vesselsG4632 of wrathG3709 fitted unto destructionG684: 23and that he might makeG1107 known the richesG4149 of his gloryG1391 upon vesselsG4632 of mercyG1656, which he afore prepared unto gloryG1391, 24evenG2532 us, whom he alsoG2532 calledG2564, not from the JewsG2453 onlyG3440, but alsoG2532 from the GentilesG1484?
