Romans 9 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Deep Concern for Israel

I am telling^G3004 the truth^G225 in Christ^G5547, I am not lying^G5574; my conscience^G4893 testifies^G4828 with me in the Holy^G40 Spirit^G4151,

Rom 9:2

Rom 9:2that I have great sorrow and unceasing grief in my heart.

Rom 9:3

Rom 9:3For I could [fn]wish that I myself were accursed, separated from Christ for the sake of my countrymen, my kinsmen according to the flesh,

Rom 9:4

Rom 9:4who are Israelites, to whom belongs the adoption as sons and daughters, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the Law, the temple service, and the promises;

Rom 9:5

Rom 9:5whose are the fathers, and from whom is the [fn]Christ according to the flesh, who is over all, God blessed [fn]forever. Amen.

(Gen 25:19–23 )

Rom 9:6

But it is not as though^G3754 the word^G3056 of God^G2316 has failed^G1601. For they are not all^G3956 Israel^G2474 who^G3588 are descended from Israel^G2474;

Rom 9:7

Rom 9:7nor are they all children because they are Abraham’s [fn]descendants, but: “[fn]THROUGH ISAAC YOUR [fn]DESCENDANTS SHALL BE NAMED.”

Rom 9:8

Rom 9:8That is, it is not the children of the flesh [fn]who are children of God, but the children of the promise are regarded as [fn]descendants.

Rom 9:9

Rom 9:9For this is the word of promise: “AT THIS TIME I WILL COME, AND SARAH WILL HAVE A SON.”

Rom 9:10

Rom 9:10And not only that, but there was also Rebekah, when she had conceived twins by one man, our father Isaac;

Rom 9:11

Rom 9:11for though the twins were not yet born and had not done anything good or bad, so that God’s purpose according to His choice would [fn]stand, not [fn]because of works but [fn]because of Him who calls,

Rom 9:12

Rom 9:12it was said to her, “THE OLDER WILL SERVE THE YOUNGER.”

Rom 9:13

Rom 9:13Just as it is written: “JACOB I HAVE LOVED, BUT ESAU I HAVE HATED.”

Rom 9:14

What^G5101 shall we say^G3004 then^G3767? There is no^G3361 injustice^G93 with God^G2316, is there? [fn]Far^G3361 from^G3361 it!

Rom 9:15

Rom 9:15For He says to Moses, “I WILL HAVE MERCY ON WHOMEVER I HAVE MERCY, AND I WILL SHOW COMPASSION TO WHOMEVER I SHOW COMPASSION.”

Rom 9:16

Rom 9:16So then, it does not depend on the person who [fn]wants it nor the one who [fn]runs, but on God who has mercy.

Rom 9:17

Rom 9:17For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “FOR THIS VERY REASON I RAISED YOU UP, IN ORDER TO DEMONSTRATE MY POWER IN YOU, AND THAT MY NAME MIGHT BE PROCLAIMED [fn]THROUGHOUT THE EARTH.”

Rom 9:18

Rom 9:18So then He has mercy on whom He desires, and He hardens whom He desires.

Rom 9:19

You will say^G3004 to me then^G3767, “Why^G5101 does He still^G2089 find^G3201 fault^G3201? For who^G5101 has resisted^G436 His will^G1013?”

Rom 9:20

Rom 9:20On the contrary, who are you, [fn]you foolish person, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, “Why did you make me like this,” will it?

Rom 9:21

Rom 9:21Or does the potter not have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one object [fn]for honorable use, and another [fn]for common use?

Rom 9:22

Rom 9:22 [fn]What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with great patience objects of wrath prepared for destruction?

Rom 9:23

Rom 9:23And He did so to make known the riches of His glory upon objects of mercy, which He prepared beforehand for glory,

Rom 9:24

Rom 9:24namely us, whom He also called, not only from among Jews, but also from among Gentiles,

Rom 9:25

Rom 9:25as He also says in Hosea:

“I WILL CALL^G2564 THOSE^G3588 WHO WERE NOT MY PEOPLE^G2992, ‘MY PEOPLE^G2992,’

AND HER WHO WAS NOT BELOVED^G25, ‘BELOVED^G25.’”

Rom 9:26

“AND IT SHALL BE THAT IN THE PLACE^G5117 WHERE^G3757 IT WAS SAID^G3004 TO THEM, ‘YOU ARE NOT MY PEOPLE^G2992,’

THERE^G1563 THEY SHALL BE CALLED^G2564 SONS^G5207 OF THE LIVING^G2198 GOD^G2316.”

Rom 9:27

Isaiah^G2268 cries^G2896 out^G2896 concerning^G5228 Israel^G2474, “THOUGH^G1437 THE NUMBER^G706 OF THE SONS^G5207 OF ISRAEL^G2474 MAY BE LIKE^G5613 THE SAND^G285 OF THE SEA^G2281, ONLY THE REMNANT^G2640 WILL BE SAVED^G4982;

Rom 9:28

Rom 9:28FOR THE LORD WILL EXECUTE HIS WORD ON THE EARTH, [fn]THOROUGHLY AND [fn]QUICKLY.”

Rom 9:29

Rom 9:29And just as Isaiah foretold:

“IF^G1487 THE LORD^G2962 [fn]OF ARMIES^G4519 HAD NOT LEFT^G1459 US [fn]DESCENDANTS^G4690,

WE WOULD HAVE BECOME^G1096 LIKE^G5613 SODOM^G4670, AND WOULD HAVE [fn]BEEN^G3666 LIKE^G3666 GOMORRAH^G1116.”

Rom 9:30

What^G5101 shall we say^G3004 then^G3767? That Gentiles^G1484, who did not pursue^G1377 righteousness^G1343, attained^G2638 righteousness^G1343, but the righteousness^G1343 that is [fn]by faith^G4102;

Rom 9:31

Rom 9:31however, Israel, pursuing a law of righteousness, did not arrive at that law.

Rom 9:32

Rom 9:32Why? Because they did not pursue it [fn]by faith, but as though they could [fn]by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,

Rom 9:33

Rom 9:33just as it is written:

“BEHOLD^G2400, I AM LAYING^G5087 IN ZION^G4622 A STONE^G3037 OF STUMBLING^G4348 AND A ROCK^G4073 OF OFFENSE^G4625,

AND THE ONE WHO BELIEVES^G4100 IN HIM WILL NOT BE [fn]PUT^G2617 TO^G2617 SHAME^G2617.”
