Romans 9:10-24
101And not onlyG3440 this, but there was 2RebekahG4479 alsoG2532, when she had conceivedG2845G2192 twins by oneG1520 manG1520, our fatherG3962 IsaacG2464; 11for though the twins were not yetG3380 bornG1080 and had not doneG4238 anythingG5100 goodG18 orG2228 badG5337, soG2443 that 3God’sG2316 purposeG4286 accordingG2596 to His choiceG1589 would 4standG3306, not 5becauseG1537 of worksG2041 but 6becauseG1537 of Him who callsG2564, 12it was saidG3004 to her, “7The olderG3173 will serveG1398 the youngerG1640.” 13JustG2509 as it is writtenG1125, “8JacobG2384 I lovedG25, but EsauG2269 I hatedG3404.”
149WhatG5101 shall we sayG3004 thenG3767? 10There is noG3361 injusticeG93 with GodG2316, is there? 11May it neverG3361 be! 15For He saysG3004 to MosesG3475, “12I will haveG1653 mercyG1653 on whomG3739 I haveG1653 mercyG1653, and I will haveG3627 compassionG3627 on whomG3739 I haveG3627 compassionG3627.” 16SoG686 thenG686 it does not depend on the man who willsG2309 orG3761 the man who 13runsG5143, but on 14GodG2316 who hasG1653 mercyG1653. 17For the ScriptureG1124 saysG3004 to PharaohG5328, “15For thisG3778 veryG846 purpose I raisedG1825 you up, to demonstrateG1731 My powerG1411 in you, and that My nameG3686 might be proclaimedG1229 16throughoutG1722 the wholeG3956 earthG1093.” 18SoG686 thenG686 He hasG1653 mercyG1653 on whomG3739 He desiresG2309, and He 17hardensG4645 whomG3739 He desiresG2309.
1918You will sayG3004 to me thenG3767, “19WhyG5101 does He stillG2089 findG3201 faultG3201? For 20whoG5101 resistsG436 His willG1013?” 20On the contraryG3304, whoG5101 are you, 21OG5599 manG444, who 22answersG470 backG470 to GodG2316? 23The thingG4110 moldedG4110 will not sayG3004 to the molderG4111, “WhyG5101 did you makeG4160 me likeG3779 thisG3779,” will it? 21OrG2228 does not the potterG2763 haveG2192 a rightG1849 over the clayG4081, to makeG4160 from the sameG846 lumpG5445 oneG3739G3303 vesselG4632 24for honorableG5092 useG5092 and anotherG3739G1161 25for commonG819 useG819? 2226WhatG1161 ifG1487 GodG2316, although willingG2309 to demonstrateG1731 His wrathG3709 and to makeG1107 His powerG1415 knownG1107, enduredG5342 with muchG4183 27patienceG3115 vesselsG4632 of wrathG3709 28preparedG2675 for destructionG684? 23And He did so to makeG1107 knownG1107 29the richesG4149 of His gloryG1391 upon 30vesselsG4632 of mercyG1656, whichG3739 He 31preparedG4282 beforehandG4282 for gloryG1391, 24even us, whomG3739 He alsoG2532 32calledG2564, 33not from amongG1537 JewsG2453 onlyG3440, but alsoG2532 from amongG1537 GentilesG1484.
