Romans 9:1-8
11I am tellingG3004 the truthG225 in ChristG5547, I am not lyingG5574, my conscienceG4893 testifiesG4828 with me in the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, 2that I have greatG3173 sorrowG3077 and unceasingG88 griefG3601 in my heartG2588. 3For 2I could 3wishG2172 that I myselfG846 were 4accursedG331, separated from ChristG5547 for the sakeG5228 of my brethrenG80, my kinsmenG4773 5accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, 4whoG3748 are 6IsraelitesG2475, to whomG3739 belongs 7the adoptionG5206 as sonsG5206, and 8the gloryG1391 and 9the covenantsG1242 and 10the givingG3548 of the LawG3548 and 11the temple serviceG2999 and 12the promisesG1860, 5whoseG3739 are 13the fathersG3962, and 14from whomG3739 is 15the ChristG5547 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, 16who is overG1909 allG3956, 17GodG2316 18blessedG2128 19foreverG165. AmenG281.
6But it is not as thoughG3754 20the wordG3056 of GodG2316 has failedG1601. 21For they are not allG3956 IsraelG2274 whoG3588 are descended from IsraelG2274; 7norG3761 are they allG3956 childrenG5043 22becauseG3754 they are Abraham’sG11 23descendantsG4690, but: “2425throughG1722 IsaacG2464 your 26descendantsG4690 will be namedG2564.” 8That is, it is not the childrenG5043 of the fleshG4561 whoG3778 are 27childrenG5043 of GodG2316, but the 28childrenG5043 of the promiseG1860 are regardedG3049 as 29descendantsG4690.
