Romans 9

<< Romans 9 >>
King James Bible with Strong's Numbers
 

1 I say the truth in Christ I lie not my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost 2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart 3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren my kinsmen according to the flesh 4 Who are Israelites to whom pertaineth the adoption and the glory and the covenants and the giving of the law and the service of God and the promises 5 Whose are the fathers and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came who is over all God blessed for ever Amen

6 Not as though __ the word of God hath taken none effect For they are not all __ Israel which __ are of Israel 7 Neither because they are the seed of Abraham are they all children but In Isaac shall thy seed be called 8 That is They which are the children of the flesh these are not the children of God but the children of the promise are counted for the seed 9 For this is the word of promise At this time will I come and Sara shall have a son 10 And not only this but when Rebecca also had conceived by one __ even by our father Isaac 11 For the children being not yet born neither having done any good or evil that the purpose of God according to election might stand not of works but of him that calleth 12  It was said unto her The elder shall serve the younger 13 As it is written Jacob have I loved but Esau have I hated

14 What shall we say then Is there unrighteousness with God God forbid __ 15 For he saith to Moses I will have mercy on whom __ I will have mercy and I will have compassion on whom __ I will have compassion 16 So then it is not of him that willeth nor of him that runneth but of God that sheweth mercy 17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh Even for __ this same purpose have I raised thee up that I might shew my power in thee and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth 18 Therefore __ hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy and whom he will he hardeneth

19 Thou wilt say then unto me Why doth he yet find fault For who hath resisted his will 20 Nay but O man who art thou that repliest against God Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it Why hast thou made me ">thus 21  Hath not the potter power over the clay of the same lump to __ make one vessel unto honour and another unto dishonour 22 What if __ God willing to shew his wrath and to make his power known endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction 23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy which he had afore prepared unto glory 24  Even us whom he hath called not of the Jews only but also of the Gentiles

25 As he saith also in Osee I will call them my people which were not my people and her beloved which was not beloved

26 And it shall come to pass that in the place where __ it was said unto them Ye are not my people there shall they be called the children of the living God

27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea a remnant shall be saved 28 For he will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth

29 And as Esaias said before Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed we had been __ as Sodoma and been made like __ unto Gomorrha

30 What shall we say then That the Gentiles which followed not after righteousness have attained to righteousness even the righteousness which is of faith 31 But Israel which followed after the law of righteousness hath not attained to the law of righteousness 32 Wherefore Because they sought it not by faith but as it were by the works of the law For they stumbled at that stumblingstone __

33 As it is written Behold I lay in Sion a stumblingstone __ and rock of offence and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed
