Romans - Chapter: 9


9:1	I seie treuthe in Crist Jhesu, Y lye not, for my conscience berith witnessyng to me in the Hooli Goost,
9:2	for greet heuynesse is to me, and contynuel sorewe to my herte.
9:3	For Y my silf desiride to be departid fro Crist for my britheren, that ben my cosyns aftir the fleisch, that ben men of Israel;
9:4	whos is adopcioun of sones, and glorie, and testament, and yyuyng of the lawe, and seruyce, and biheestis;
9:5	whos ben the fadris, and of which is Crist after the fleisch, that is God aboue alle thingis, blessid in to worldis.
9:6	Amen. But not that the word of God hath falle doun. For not alle that ben of Israel, these ben Israelitis.
9:7	Nethir thei that ben seed of Abraham, `alle ben sonys; but in Ysaac the seed schal be clepid to thee;
9:8	that is to seie, not thei that ben sones of the fleisch, ben sones of God, but thei that ben sones of biheeste ben demed in the seed.
9:9	For whi this is the word of biheest, Aftir this tyme Y schal come, and a sone schal be to Sare.
9:10	And not oneli sche, but also Rebecca hadde twey sones of o liggyng bi of Ysaac, oure fadir.
9:11	And whanne thei weren not yit borun, nether hadden don ony thing of good ether of yuel, that the purpos of God schulde dwelle bi eleccioun,
9:12	not of werkis, but of God clepynge, it was seid to hym,
9:13	that the more schulde serue the lesse, as it is writun, Y louede Jacob, but Y hatide Esau.
9:14	What therfor schulen we seie? Whether wickidnesse be anentis God?
9:15	God forbede. For he seith to Moyses, Y schal haue merci on whom Y haue merci; and Y schal yyue merci on whom Y schal haue merci.
9:16	Therfor it is not nether of man willynge, nethir rennynge, but of God hauynge mercy.
9:17	And the scripture seith to Farao, For to this thing Y haue stirid thee, that Y schewe in thee my vertu, and that my name be teld in al erthe.
9:18	Therfor of whom God wole, he hath merci; and whom he wole, he endurith.
9:19	Thanne seist thou to me, What is souyt yit? for who withstondith his wille?
9:20	O! man, who art thou, that answerist to God? Whether a maad thing seith to hym that made it, What hast thou maad me so?
9:21	Whether a potter of cley hath not power to make of the same gobet o vessel in to honour, an othere in to dispit?
9:22	That if God willynge to schewe his wraththe, and to make his power knowun, hath suffrid in greet pacience vessels of wraththe able in to deth,
9:23	to schewe the riytchessis of his glorie in to vessels of merci, whiche he made redi in to glorie.
9:24	Whiche also he clepide not oneli of Jewis, but also of hethene men, as he seith in Osee,
9:25	Y schal clepe not my puple my puple, and not my loued my louyd, and not getynge mercy getynge merci;
9:26	and it schal be in the place, where it is seid to hem, Not ye my puple, there thei schulen be clepid the sones of `God lyuynge.
9:27	But Isaye crieth for Israel, If the noumbre of Israel schal be as grauel of the see, the relifs schulen be maad saaf.
9:28	Forsothe a word makynge an ende, and abreggynge in equyte, for the Lord schal make a word breggid on al the erthe.
9:29	And as Ysaye bifor seide, But God of oostis hadde left to vs seed, we hadden be maad as Sodom, and we hadden be lijk as Gommor.
9:30	Therfor what schulen we seie? That hethene men that sueden not riytwisnesse, han gete riytwisnesse, yhe, the riytwisnesse that is of feith.
9:31	But Israel suynge the lawe of riytwisnesse, cam not parfitli in to the lawe of riytwisnesse.
9:32	Whi? For not of feith, but as of werkys. And thei spurneden ayens the stoon of offencioun,
9:33	as it is writun, Lo! Y putte a stoon of offensioun in Syon, and a stoon of sclaundre; and ech that schal bileue `in it, schal not be confoundid.


9:1	I say the trueth in Christ, I lye not, my conscience bearing mee witnes in the holy Ghost,
9:2	That I haue great heauinesse, and continuall sorow in mine heart.
9:3	For I woulde wish my selfe to be separate from Christ, for my brethren that are my kinsemen according to the flesh,
9:4	Which are the Israelites, to whome perteineth the adoption, and the glory, and the Couenants, and the giuing of the Lawe, and the seruice of God, and the promises.
9:5	Of whome are the fathers, and of whome concerning the flesh, Christ came, who is God ouer all, blessed for euer, Amen.
9:6	Notwithstanding it can not bee that the worde of God should take none effect: for all they are not Israel, which are of Israel:
9:7	Neither are they all children, because they are the seede of Abraham: but, In Isaac shall thy seede be called:
9:8	That is, they which are the children of the flesh, are not the children of God: but the children of the promise, are counted for the seede.
9:9	For this is a worde of promise, In this same time wil I come, and Sara shall haue a sonne.
9:10	Neither he onely felt this, but also Rebecca when shee had conceiued by one, euen by our father Isaac.
9:11	For yer the children were borne, and when they had neither done good, nor euill (that the purpose of God might remaine according to election, not by workes, but by him that calleth)
9:12	It was said vnto her, The elder shall serue the yonger.
9:13	As it is written, I haue loued Iacob, and haue hated Esau.
9:14	What shall wee say then? Is there vnrighteousnes with God? God forbid.
9:15	For he saith to Moses, I wil haue mercy on him, to whom I wil shew mercie: and wil haue compassion on him, on who I wil haue copassion.
9:16	So then it is not in him that willeth, nor in him that runneth, but in God that sheweth mercy.
9:17	For the Scripture saith vnto Pharao, For this same purpose haue I stirred thee vp, that I might shewe my power in thee, and that my Name might be declared throughout al the earth.
9:18	Therefore he hath mercie on whome he will, and whom he will, he hardeneth.
9:19	Thou wilt say then vnto me, Why doeth he yet complaine? for who hath resisted his will?
9:20	But, O man, who art thou which pleadest against God? shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
9:21	Hath not the potter power of the clay to make of the same lumpe one vessell to honour, and another vnto dishonour?
9:22	What and if God would, to shewe his wrath, and to make his power knowen, suffer with long patience the vessels of wrath, prepared to destruction?
9:23	And that hee might declare the riches of his glory vpon the vessels of mercy, which hee hath prepared vnto glory?
9:24	Euen vs whome hee hath called, not of of the Iewes onely, but also of the Gentiles,
9:25	As he sayth also in Osee, I will call them, My people, which were not my people: and her, Beloued, which was not beloued.
9:26	And it shalbe in the place where it was said vnto them, Ye are not my people, that there they shalbe called, The children of the liuing God.
9:27	Also Esaias cryeth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel were as the sand of the sea, yet shall but a remnant be saued.
9:28	For he wil make his account, and gather it into a short summe with righteousnes: for the Lord will make a short count in the earth.
9:29	And as Esaias sayde before, Except the Lord of hostes had left vs a seede, we had bene made as Sodom, and had bene like to Gomorrha.
9:30	What shall we say then? That the Gentiles which folowed not righteousnes, haue attained vnto righteousnes, euen the righteousnes which is of faith.
9:31	But Israel which followed the Lawe of righteousnes, could not arteine vnto the Law of righteousnes.
9:32	Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the workes of the Lawe: for they haue stumbled at the stumbling stone,
9:33	As it is written, Beholde, I lay in Sion a stumbling stone, and a rocke to make men fall: and euery one that beleeueth in him, shall not be ashamed.


9:1	I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,
9:2	that I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
9:3	Because, I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen according to the flesh,
9:4	who are Israelites, to whom pertain the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises;
9:5	of whom are the fathers and of whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, blessed by God forever. Amen.
9:6	But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. Because, they are not all Israel who are of Israel,
9:7	nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, "In Isaac your seed will be called."
9:8	That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed.
9:9	Because, this is the word of promise: "At this time I will come and Sarah will have a son."
9:10	And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, that is by our father Isaac
9:11	(because, the children being not yet born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls),
9:12	it was said to her, "The older will serve the younger."
9:13	As it is written, "Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated."
9:14	What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid!
9:15	Because, He says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion."
9:16	So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.
9:17	Because, the Scripture says to the Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared throughout all the earth."
9:18	Therefore He has mercy on whom He will have mercy, and whom He wills He hardens.
9:19	You will say to me then, "Why does He still find fault? Because who has resisted His will?"
9:20	But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Shall the thing formed say to him who formed it, "Why have you made me like this?"
9:21	Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?
9:22	What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,
9:23	and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory,
9:24	even us whom He has called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
9:25	As He says also in Hosea: "I will call them My people, who were not My people, and her beloved, who was not beloved."
9:26	"And it will come to pass that in the place where it was said to them, 'You are not My people,' There they will be called children of the living God."
9:27	Isaiah also proclaims concerning Israel: "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant will be saved.
9:28	Because, He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, because the Lord will make a short work upon the earth."
9:29	And as Isaiah said before: "Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we would have become like Sodom, and we would have been made like Gomorrah."
9:30	What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;
9:31	but Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness.
9:32	Why? Because, they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. Because they stumbled at that stumbling stone.
9:33	As it is written: "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, and whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."
