Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:16 - So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that hath mercy.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:17 - For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, For this very purpose did I raise thee up, that I might show in thee my power, and that my name might be published abroad in all the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:18 - So then he hath mercy on whom he will, and whom he will he hardeneth.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:19 - Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he still find fault? For who withstandeth his will?

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:21 - Or hath not the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:22 - What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering vessels of wrath fitted unto destruction:
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:23 - and that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he afore prepared unto glory,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:24 - even us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:25 - As he saith also in Hosea,
I will call that my people, which was not my people;
And her beloved, that was not beloved.

And it shall be, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people,
There shall they be called sons of the living God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:27 - And Isaiah crieth concerning Israel, If the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, it is the remnant that shall be saved:
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:28 - for the Lord will execute his word upon the earth, finishing it and cutting it short.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:29 - And, as Isaiah hath said before,
Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed,
We had become as Sodom, and had been made like unto Gomorrah.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:30 - What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who followed not after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith:
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:31 - but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, did not arrive at that law.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:32 - Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by works. They stumbled at the stone of stumbling;
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:33 - even as it is written,
Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence:
And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.
