Romans 9:16-18

16So then it does not depend on the man who wills or the man who 1runs, but on 2God who has mercy. 17For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “3For this very purpose I raised you up, to demonstrate My power in you, and that My name might be proclaimed 4throughout the whole earth.” 18So then He has mercy on whom He desires, and He 5hardens whom He desires.
