Romans 9:7-9

7norG3761 are they allG3956 childrenG5043 1becauseG3754 they are Abraham’sG11 23descendantsG4690, but: “45throughG1722 IsaacG2464 your 6descendantsG4690 shall be namedG2564.”

8That is, it is not the childrenG5043 of the fleshG4561 7whoG3778 are 8childrenG5043 of GodG2316, but the 9childrenG5043 of the promiseG1860 are regardedG3049 as 1011descendantsG4690.

9For thisG3778 is the wordG3056 of promiseG1860: “12At thisG3778 timeG2540 I will comeG2064, and SarahG4564 will haveG1510 a sonG5207.”
