Romans 9

1I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

αληθειαν λεγω εν χριστω ου ψευδομαι συμμαρτυρουσης μοι της συνειδησεως μου εν πνευματι αγιω (11951)

2That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.

οτι λυπη μοι εστιν μεγαλη και αδιαλειπτος οδυνη τη καρδια μου (3898)

3For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

ηυχομην γαρ αυτος εγω αναθεμα ειναι απο του χριστου υπερ των αδελφων μου των συγγενων μου κατα σαρκα (13293)

4Who 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;

οιτινες εισιν ισραηλιται ων η υιοθεσια και η δοξα και αι διαθηκαι και η νομοθεσια και η λατρεια και αι επαγγελιαι (4602)

5Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.

ων οι πατερες και εξ ων ο χριστος το κατα σαρκα ο ων επι παντων θεος ευλογητος εις τους αιωνας αμην (11143)

6Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:

ουχ οιον δε οτι εκπεπτωκεν ο λογος του θεου ου γαρ παντες οι εξ ισραηλ ουτοι ισραηλ (7624)

7Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.

ουδ οτι εισιν σπερμα αβρααμ παντες τεκνα αλλ εν ισαακ κληθησεται σοι σπερμα (4357)

8That 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.

τουτ εστιν ου τα τεκνα της σαρκος ταυτα τεκνα του θεου αλλα τα τεκνα της επαγγελιας λογιζεται εις σπερμα (9175)

9For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.

επαγγελιας γαρ ο λογος ουτος κατα τον καιρον τουτον ελευσομαι και εσται τη σαρρα υιος (6806)

10And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;

ου μονον δε αλλα και ρεβεκκα εξ ενος κοιτην εχουσα ισαακ του πατρος ημων (5780)

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;)

μηπω γαρ γεννηθεντων μηδε πραξαντων τι αγαθον η κακον ινα η κατ εκλογην του θεου προθεσις μενη ουκ εξ εργων αλλ εκ του καλουντος (10591)

12It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.

ερρηθη αυτη οτι ο μειζων δουλευσει τω ελασσονι (5091)

13As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

καθως γεγραπται τον ιακωβ ηγαπησα τον δε ησαυ εμισησα (4589)

14What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

τι ουν ερουμεν μη αδικια παρα τω θεω μη γενοιτο (4246)

15For 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.

τω γαρ μωση λεγει ελεησω ον αν ελεω και οικτειρησω ον αν οικτειρω (7404)

16So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

αρα ουν ου του θελοντος ουδε του τρεχοντος αλλα του ελεουντος θεου (7986)

17For 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.

λεγει γαρ η γραφη τω φαραω οτι εις αυτο τουτο εξηγειρα σε οπως ενδειξωμαι εν σοι την δυναμιν μου και οπως διαγγελη το ονομα μου εν παση τη γη (13094)

18Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

αρα ουν ον θελει ελεει ον δε θελει σκληρυνει (1867)

19Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

ερεις ουν μοι τι ετι μεμφεται τω γαρ βουληματι αυτου τις ανθεστηκεν (6880)

20Nay 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?

μενουνγε ω ανθρωπε συ τις ει ο ανταποκρινομενος τω θεω μη ερει το πλασμα τω πλασαντι τι με εποιησας ουτως (12055)

21Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

η ουκ εχει εξουσιαν ο κεραμευς του πηλου εκ του αυτου φυραματος ποιησαι ο μεν εις τιμην σκευος ο δε εις ατιμιαν (10459)

22What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:

ει δε θελων ο θεος ενδειξασθαι την οργην και γνωρισαι το δυνατον αυτου ηνεγκεν εν πολλη μακροθυμια σκευη οργης κατηρτισμενα εις απωλειαν (10183)

23And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

και ινα γνωριση τον πλουτον της δοξης αυτου επι σκευη ελεους α προητοιμασεν εις δοξαν (7477)

24Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

ους και εκαλεσεν ημας ου μονον εξ ιουδαιων αλλα και εξ εθνων (4498)

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

ως και εν τω ωσηε λεγει καλεσω τον ου λαον μου λαον μου και την ουκ ηγαπημενην ηγαπημενην (7905)

26And 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.

και εσται εν τω τοπω ου ερρηθη αυτοις ου λαος μου υμεις εκει κληθησονται υιοι θεου ζωντος (9716)

27Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:

ησαιας δε κραζει υπερ του ισραηλ εαν η ο αριθμος των υιων ισραηλ ως η αμμος της θαλασσης το καταλειμμα σωθησεται (10466)

28For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.

λογον γαρ συντελων και συντεμνων εν δικαιοσυνη οτι λογον συντετμημενον ποιησει κυριος επι της γης (9034)

29And 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.

και καθως προειρηκεν ησαιας ει μη κυριος σαβαωθ εγκατελιπεν ημιν σπερμα ως σοδομα αν εγενηθημεν και ως γομορρα αν ωμοιωθημεν (9765)

30What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.

τι ουν ερουμεν οτι εθνη τα μη διωκοντα δικαιοσυνην κατελαβεν δικαιοσυνην δικαιοσυνην δε την εκ πιστεως (8426)

31But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.

ισραηλ δε διωκων νομον δικαιοσυνης εις νομον δικαιοσυνης ουκ εφθασεν (6023)

32Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;

δια τι οτι ουκ εκ πιστεως αλλ ως εξ εργων νομου προσεκοψαν γαρ τω λιθω του προσκομματος (10839)

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

καθως γεγραπται ιδου τιθημι εν σιων λιθον προσκομματος και πετραν σκανδαλου και πας ο πιστευων επ αυτω ου καταισχυνθησεται (12610)
