Romans 9:7-13

7norG3761 are they allG3956 childrenG5043 1becauseG3754 they are Abraham’sG11 2descendantsG4690, but: “34throughG1722 IsaacG2464 your 5descendantsG4690 will be namedG2564.” 8That is, it is not the childrenG5043 of the fleshG4561 whoG3778 are 6childrenG5043 of GodG2316, but the 7childrenG5043 of the promiseG1860 are regardedG3049 as 8descendantsG4690. 9For thisG3778 is the wordG3056 of promiseG1860: “9At thisG3778 timeG2540 I will comeG2064, and SarahG4564 shall haveG1510 a sonG5207.” 1010And not onlyG3440 this, but there was 11RebekahG4479 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 12God’sG2316 purposeG4286 accordingG2596 to His choiceG1589 would 13standG3306, not 14becauseG1537 of worksG2041 but 15becauseG1537 of Him who callsG2564, 12it was saidG3004 to her, “16The olderG3173 will serveG1398 the youngerG1640.” 13JustG2509 as it is writtenG1125, “17JacobG2384 I lovedG25, but EsauG2269 I hatedG3404.”
