DB1 | God's Election of Israel Ro.9.1-18 | AV Contents | notes| 9 | Authorised (King James) Version | Passage | New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26) |
| 9 1 | I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, | God's Election of Israel Ro.9.1-18 | Ἀλήθειαν λέγω ἐν Χριστῷ, οὐ ψεύδομαι, συμμαρτυρούσης μοι τῆς συνειδήσεώς μου ἐν πνεύματι ἀγίῳ, |
| 2 | That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. | ὁτι λύπη μοί ἐστιν μεγάλη καὶ ἀδιάλειπτος ὀδύνη τῇ καρδίᾳ μου. | |
| 3 | For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: | ηὐχόμην γὰρ ἀνάθεμα εἶναι αὐτὸς ἐγὼ ἀπὸ τοῦ Χριστοῦ ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀδελφῶν μου τῶν συγγενῶν μου κατὰ σάρκα, | |
| 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; | οἱτινές εἰσιν Ἰσραηλῖται, ὧν ἡ υἱοθεσία καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ αἱ διαθῆκαι καὶ ἡ νομοθεσία καὶ ἡ λατρεία καὶ αἱ ἐπαγγελίαι, | |
| 5 | Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. | ὧν οἱ πατέρες, καὶ ἐξ ὧν ὁ Χριστὸς τὸ κατὰ σάρκα· ὁ ὢν ἐπὶ πάντων θεὸς εὐλογητὸς εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας, ἀμήν. | |
| 6 | Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: | Οὐχ οἷον δὲ ὅτι ἐκπέπτωκεν ὁ λόγος τοῦ θεοῦ. οὐ γὰρ πάντες οἱ ἐξ Ἰσραήλ, οὗτοι Ἰσραήλ· | |
| 7 | Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. | - Through Isaac shall your descendants be named Ro.9.7 | Gn.21.12 | οὐδ' ὅτι εἰσὶν σπέρμα Ἀβραάμ, πάντες τέκνα, ἀλλ', Ἐν Ἰσαὰκ κληθήσεταί σοι σπέρμα. |
| 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. | τοῦτ' ἐστιν, οὐ τὰ τέκνα τῆς σαρκὸς ταῦτα τέκνα τοῦ θεοῦ, ἀλλὰ τὰ τέκνα τῆς ἐπαγγελίας λογίζεται εἰς σπέρμα· | |
| 9 | For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son. | - About this time I will return and Sarah shall have a son Ro.9.9 | Gn.18.10-14 | ἐπαγγελίας γὰρ ὁ λόγος οὗτος, Kατὰ τὸν καιρὸν τοῦτον ἐλεύσομαι καὶ ἔσται τῇ Σάρρᾳ υἱός. |
| 10 | And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac; | οὐ μόνον δέ, ἀλλὰ καὶ Ῥεβέκκα ἐξ ἑνὸς κοίτην ἐχουσα, Ἰσαὰκ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν· | |
| 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;) | μήπω γὰρ γεννηθέντων μηδὲ πραξάντων τι ἀγαθὸν ἢ φαῦλον, ἵνα ἡ κατ' ἐκλογὴν πρόθεσις τοῦ θεοῦ μένῃ, | |
| 12 | It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. | - The elder will serve the younger Ro.9.12 | Gn.25.23 | οὐκ ἐξ ἐργων ἀλλ' ἐκ τοῦ καλοῦντος, ἐρρέθη αὐτῇ ὅτι Ὁ μείζων δουλεύσει τῷ ἐλάσσον· |
| 13 | As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. | - Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated Ro.9.13 | Mal.1.2-3 | καθὼς γέγραπται, Tὸν Ἰακὼβ ἠγάπησα, |
| 14 | What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. | Τί οὖν ἐροῦμεν; μὴ ἀδικία παρὰ τῷ θεῷ; μὴ γένοιτο· | |
| 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. | - I will have mercy on whom I have mercy Ro.9.15 | Ex.33.19 | τῷ Μωϋσεῖ γὰρ λέγει, Ἐλεήσω ὃν ἂν ἐλεῶ, |
| 16 | So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. | ἀρα οὖν οὐ τοῦ θέλοντος οὐδὲ τοῦ τρέχοντος, ἀλλὰ τοῦ ἐλεῶντος θεοῦ. | |
| 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. | - I have raised you up for the very purpose Ro.9.17 | Ex.9.16 | λέγει γὰρ ἡ γραφὴ τῷ Φαραὼ ὅτι Εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο ἐξήγειρά σε ὅπως ἐνδείξωμαι ἐν σοὶ τὴν δύναμίν μου, καὶ ὅπως διαγγελῇ τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ. |
| 18 | Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth. | ἀρα οὖν ὃν θέλει ἐλεεῖ, ὃν δὲ θέλει σκληρύνει. | |
