Romans 9:22-30

221WhatG1161 ifG1487 GodG2316, although willingG2309 to demonstrateG1731 His wrathG3709 and to makeG1107 His powerG1415 knownG1107, enduredG5342 with greatG4183 2patienceG3115 objectsG4632 of wrathG3709 3preparedG2675 for destructionG684? 23And He did so to makeG1107 knownG1107 4the richesG4149 of His gloryG1391 upon 5objectsG4632 of mercyG1656, whichG3739 He 6preparedG4282 beforehandG4282 for gloryG1391, 24namely us, whomG3739 He alsoG2532 7calledG2564, 8not onlyG3440 from amongG1537 JewsG2453, but alsoG2532 from amongG1537 GentilesG1484, 25as He alsoG2532 saysG3004 in HoseaG5617: “9I will callG2564 thoseG3588 who were not My peopleG2992, ‘My peopleG2992,’ And her who was not belovedG25, ‘belovedG25.’”26“10And it shall be that in the placeG5117 whereG3757 it was saidG3004 to them, ‘you are not My peopleG2992,’ ThereG1563 they shall be calledG2564 sonsG5207 of 11the livingG2198 GodG2316.”

27IsaiahG2268 criesG2896 outG2896 concerningG5228 IsraelG2474, “12ThoughG1437 the numberG706 of the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474 may be 13likeG5613 the sandG285 of the seaG2281, only 14the remnantG5275 will be savedG4982; 2815for the LordG2962 will executeG4160 His wordG3056 on the earthG1093, 16thoroughlyG4931 and 17quicklyG4932.” 29And justG2531 asG2531 IsaiahG2268 foretoldG4275: “18IfG1487 19the LordG2962 20of armiesG4519 had not leftG1459 us 2122descendantsG4690, 23We would have becomeG1096 likeG5613 SodomG4670, and would have 24beenG3666 likeG3666 GomorrahG1116.”
