- 9:2 that my sorrow is great and the pain in my heart never stops. 10
- 9:5 The patriarchs are theirs, and from them, by human descent, comes Christ, who is God over all, blessed forever. Amen. 8
- 9:16 So it is not a matter of what a person wants or how hard a person strives, but of God, who shows mercy. 8
- 9:4 They are Israelites. Theirs is the adoption as God's children, theirs the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship and the promises. 7
- 9:11 The children were not yet born and had done nothing good or bad. Yet so that God's purpose in choosing might stand, 7
- 9:3 I could even wish that I myself were under a curse, cut off from Christ, on behalf of my brothers and sisters, my own people by human descent. 6
- 9:15 For God says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whomever I have mercy, and I will show compassion to whomever I show compassion." 5
- 9:19 So you will say to me, "Why does God still find fault, then?" For who can stand against his will? 5
- 9:1 I am telling the truth in Christ; I am not lying. My conscience, in the Holy Spirit, bears witness with me 4
- 9:6 But this does not mean that God's word has failed. For not everyone descended from Israel truly belongs to Israel. 4
- 9:22 What if God, wanting to show his wrath and to make his power known, has borne with great patience the vessels of wrath, made ready for destruction? 4
- 9:20 But who are you, a mere human being, to answer back to God? Will what was shaped say to the one who shaped it, "Why did you make me this way?" 3
- 9:23 What if he did this to make known the riches of his glory to the vessels of mercy, which he prepared in advance for glory, 3
- 9:8 This means that it is not the children born by natural descent who are God's children. It is the children of the promise who are counted as Abraham's offspring. 2
- 9:14 What then are we to say? Is there injustice on God's part? Certainly not! 2
- 9:18 So then God has mercy on whomever he chooses, and he hardens whomever he chooses. 2
- 9:31 But Israel, who pursued a law that held out righteousness, did not reach that law. 2
- 9:33 as it is written, "See, I am setting in Zion a stone to stumble on, a rock that makes them fall, and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame." 2
- 9:7 Nor are they all Abraham's children just because they are his descendants. Rather, "It is through Isaac that your offspring will be named." 1
- 9:12 a purpose that rests not on works but on the one who calls, Rebecca was told, "The older will serve the younger." 1
- 9:13 As it is written, "I loved Jacob, but Esau I hated." 1
- 9:17 For Scripture says to Pharaoh, "This is the very reason I raised you up: to display my power in you, and so that my name would be made known through the whole earth." 1
- 9:21 Has the potter no right over the clay? From one and the same lump he may make one pot for honored use and another for common use. 1
- 9:25 As he says in Hosea, "Those who were not my people I will call 'my people,' and her who was not loved I will call 'loved.'" 1
- 9:30 What then are we to say? That Gentiles, who were not pursuing righteousness, have obtained it, the righteousness that comes by faith. 1
