Romans 9:11-13

11But before they were born, before they had done anything good or bad, she received a message from God. (This message shows that God chooses people according to his own purposes;

12he calls people, but not according to their good or bad works.) She was told, “Your older son will serve your younger son.”

13In the words of the Scriptures, “I loved Jacob, but I rejected Esau.”
