Romans 9:6-13
6But it is not as thoughG3754 1the wordG3056 of GodG2316 has failedG1601. 2For they are not allG3956 IsraelG2474 whoG3588 are descended from IsraelG2474; 7norG3761 are they allG3956 childrenG5043 3becauseG3754 they are Abraham’sG11 45descendantsG4690, but: “67throughG1722 IsaacG2464 your 8descendantsG4690 shall be namedG2564.” 8That is, it is not the childrenG5043 of the fleshG4561 9whoG3778 are 10childrenG5043 of GodG2316, but the 11childrenG5043 of the promiseG1860 are regardedG3049 as 1213descendantsG4690. 9For thisG3778 is the wordG3056 of promiseG1860: “14At thisG3778 timeG2540 I will comeG2064, and SarahG4564 will haveG1510 a sonG5207.” 1015And not onlyG3440 that, but there was alsoG2532 16RebekahG4479, 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 thatG2443 17God’sG2316 purposeG4286 accordingG2596 to His choiceG1589 would 18standG3306, not 19becauseG1537 of worksG2041 but 20becauseG1537 of Him who callsG2564, 12it was saidG3004 to her, “21The olderG3173 will serveG1398 the youngerG1640.” 13JustG2509 asG2509 it is writtenG1125: “22JacobG2384 I have lovedG25, but EsauG2269 I have hatedG3404.”
