AmenG281. 6ButG1161 itG1161 is notG3756 asG1161 thoughG1161 theG3956 wordG3056 ofG1537 GodG2316 hath comeG1537 toG3778 nought. ForG1063 theyG3754 are notG3756 allG3956 IsraelG2474, whichG3748 are ofG1537 IsraelG2474: 7neitherG3761, becauseG3754 theyG3754 areG1510 Abraham’sG11 seedG4690, areG1510 theyG3754 allG3956 childrenG5043: butG235, InG1722 IsaacG2464 shallG2564 thy seedG4690 beG1510 calledG2564. 8ThatG3778 isG1510, itG3778 isG1510 notG3756 theG3588 childrenG5043 ofG2316 theG3588 fleshG4561 thatG3778 areG1510 childrenG5043 ofG2316 GodG2316; butG235 theG3588 childrenG5043 ofG2316 theG3588 promiseG1860 areG1510 reckonedG3049 forG1519 aG1510 seedG4690. 9ForG1063 thisG3778 isG1510 aG1510 wordG3056 ofG5207 promiseG1860, AccordingG2596 toG2064 thisG3778 seasonG2540 willG1510 IG2532 comeG2064, andG2532 SarahG4564 shallG3778 haveG1510 aG1510 sonG5207. 10AndG2532 notG3756 onlyG3440 soG2532; butG1161 Rebecca alsoG2532 havingG2192 conceivedG2845 byG1537 oneG1520, evenG2532 byG1537 ourG2532 fatherG3962 IsaacG2464— 11forG1063 theG3588 childrenG1080 being notG3756 yetG235 bornG1080, neitherG3756 havingG2228 doneG4238 anythingG5100 goodG18 orG2228 badG5337, thatG2443 theG3588 purposeG4286 ofG1537 GodG2316 accordingG2596 toG2443 electionG1589 mightG5100 standG3306, notG3756 ofG1537 worksG2041, butG235 ofG1537 himG2564 thatG2443 calleth, 12itG846 was saidG2046 unto herG846, TheG3588 elder shallG2564 serveG1398 theG3588 youngerG1640. 13EvenG1161 asG2531 itG1161 is writtenG1125, JacobG2384 IG1161 lovedG25, butG1161 EsauG2269 IG1161 hatedG3404. 14WhatG5101 shallG2316 weG3767 sayG3004 thenG3767? Is thereG1096 unrighteousnessG93 withG3844 GodG2316? GodG2316 forbid. 15ForG1063 heG2532 saith toG3004 MosesG3475, IG3739 willG3739 have mercyG1653 onG1653 whomG3739 IG3739 have mercyG1653, andG2532 IG3739 willG3739 have compassionG3627 onG1653 whomG3739 IG3739 have compassionG3627. 16SoG3767 thenG3767 itG686 is notG3756 ofG2316 himG2309 thatG2316 willeth, norG3761 ofG2316 himG2309 thatG2316 runneth, butG235 ofG2316 GodG2316 thatG2316 hath mercyG1653. 17ForG1063 theG3956 scriptureG1124 saith unto PharaohG5328, ForG1063 thisG3778 veryG846 purposeG846 didG1731 IG1473 raiseG1825 thee upG1519, thatG3754 IG1473 mightG2532 shew inG1722 thee myG3956 powerG1411, andG2532 thatG3754 myG3956 nameG3686 mightG2532 beG2532 published abroad inG1722 allG3956 theG3956 earthG1093. 18SoG3767 thenG3767 heG3739 hath mercyG1653 onG1653 whomG3739 heG3739 willG3739, andG1161 whomG3739 heG3739 willG3739 heG3739 hardeneth. 19Thou wilt sayG3004 thenG3767 unto meG3004, WhyG5101 doth heG846 stillG2089 findG3201 faultG3201? ForG1063 whoG3588 withstandeth hisG846 willG5101? 20Nay butG2316, OG5599 manG444, whoG3588 art thou thatG3004 repliest againstG3361 GodG2316? ShallG444 theG3588 thingG4110 formedG4160 sayG3004 toG3004 himG4160 thatG3004 formedG4160 itG4160, WhyG5101 didst thou makeG4160 meG3004 thusG3779? 21OrG2228 hath notG3756 theG3588 potterG2763 a rightG1849 overG1849 theG3588 clayG4081, fromG1537 theG3588 sameG846 lumpG5445 toG1519 makeG4160 oneG3739 partG846 a vesselG4632 unto honour, andG1161 another unto dishonour? 22WhatG3588 ifG1487 GodG2316, willingG2309 toG1519 shew hisG846 wrathG3709, andG2532 toG1519 makeG1107 hisG846 powerG1415 knownG1107, enduredG5342 withG1722 muchG4183 longsuffering vesselsG4632 ofG2316 wrathG3709 fitted unto destructionG684: 23andG2532 thatG3739 heG2532 mightG2532 makeG1107 knownG1107 theG3588 richesG4149 ofG1391 hisG846 gloryG1391 uponG1909 vesselsG4632 ofG1391 mercyG1656, whichG3739 heG2532 afore preparedG4282 unto gloryG1391, 24evenG2532 usG1537, whomG3739 heG2532 alsoG2532 calledG2564, notG3756 fromG1537 theG2532 JewsG2453 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 fromG1537 theG2532 GentilesG1484? 25AsG5613 heG2532 saith alsoG2532 inG1722 HoseaG5617, IG1473 willG2532 callG2564 thatG3004 myG1722 peopleG2992, whichG3588 was notG3756 myG1722 peopleG2992; AndG2532 her belovedG25, whichG3588 was notG3756 belovedG25. 26AndG2532 itG846 shallG2532 beG1510, thatG3739 inG1722 theG3588 placeG5117 whereG3757 itG846 wasG1510 saidG2046 unto themG846, Ye areG1510 notG3756 myG1722 peopleG2992, ThereG1563 shallG2532 theyG846 beG1510 calledG2564 sonsG5207 ofG5207 theG3588 livingG2198 GodG2316. 27AndG1161 IsaiahG2268 crieth concerningG5228 IsraelG2474, IfG1437 theG3588 numberG706 ofG5207 theG3588 children ofG5207 IsraelG2474 beG1510 asG5613 theG3588 sandG285 ofG5207 theG3588 seaG2281, itG1437 isG1510 theG3588 remnantG3005 thatG5613 shall beG1510 savedG4982: 28forG1063 theG3588 LordG2962 willG2962 executeG4160 hisG4160 wordG3056 uponG1909 theG3588 earthG1093, finishing itG4160 andG2532 cutting itG4160 short. 29AndG2532, asG5613 IsaiahG2268 hath saidG1096 before, ExceptG1487 theG2532 LordG2962 ofG2962 SabaothG4519 had leftG1459 us a seedG4690, WeG2249 had becomeG1096 asG5613 SodomG4670, andG2532 had beenG1096 madeG1096 likeG5613 unto GomorrahG1116. 30WhatG5101 shall weG3754 sayG3004 thenG3767? ThatG3754 theG3588 GentilesG1484, whichG5101 followed notG3361 afterG1161 righteousnessG1343, attainedG2638 toG3004 righteousnessG1343, evenG1161 theG3588 righteousnessG1343 whichG5101 is ofG1537 faithG4102: 31butG1161 IsraelG2474, following afterG1161 a lawG3551 ofG3551 righteousnessG1343, didG5348 notG3756 arriveG5348 at thatG1161 lawG3551. 32Wherefore? BecauseG3754 theyG3754 sought itG1223 notG3756 byG1223 faithG4102, butG235 asG5613 itG1223 were byG1223 worksG2041. TheyG3754 stumbledG4350 at theG3588 stoneG3037 ofG1537 stumblingG4348; 33evenG2532 asG2531 itG846 is writtenG1125, BeholdG2400, IG2532 layG5087 inG1722 ZionG4622 a stoneG3037 ofG1909 stumblingG4625 andG2532 a rockG4073 ofG1909 offence: AndG2532 heG2532 thatG4100 believeth onG1909 himG846 shallG2532 notG3756 beG2532 putG5087 toG1909 shameG2617.
