| Romans 9:1 | I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, | And not only she. But when Rebecca also had conceived at once, of Isaac our father. | I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience bearing witness with me in the Holy Spirit, |
| Romans 9:2 | That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. | For when the children were not yet born, nor had done any good or evil (that the purpose of God, according to election, might stand,) | that I have great sorrow and unceasing pain in my heart. |
| Romans 9:3 | For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: | Not of works, but of him that calleth, it was said to her: The elder shall serve the younger. | For I could wish that I myself were anathema from Christ for my brethren's sake, my kinsmen according to the flesh: |
| Romans 9:4 | 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; | As it is written: Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated. | who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service [of God], and the promises; |
| Romans 9:5 | Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. | What shall we say then? Is there injustice with God?

| Romans 9:6 | Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: | For he saith to Moses: I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy; and I will shew mercy to whom I will shew mercy. | But [it is] not as though the word of God hath come to nought. For they are not all Israel, that are of Israel: |
| Romans 9:7 | Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. | So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. | neither, because they are Abraham's seed, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. |
| Romans 9:8 | 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. | For the scripture saith to Pharao: To this purpose have I raised thee, that I may shew my power in thee, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth. | That is, it is not the children of the flesh that are children of God; but the children of the promise are reckoned for a seed. |
| Romans 9:9 | For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son. | Therefore he hath mercy on whom he will; and whom he will, he hardeneth. | For this is a word of promise, According to this season will I come, and Sarah shall have a son. |
| Romans 9:10 | And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac; | Thou wilt say therefore to me: Why doth he then find fault? for who resisteth his will? | And not only so; but Rebecca also having conceived by one, [even] by our father Isaac-- |
| Romans 9:11 | (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;) | 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? | for [the children] being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth, |
| Romans 9:12 | It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. | Or hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump, to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? | it was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. |
| Romans 9:13 | As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. | What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath, fitted for destruction, | Even as it is written, Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated. |
| Romans 9:14 | What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. | That he might shew the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he hath prepared unto glory? | What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. |
| Romans 9:15 | 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. | Even us, whom also he hath called, nor only of the Jews, but also of the Gentiles. | For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion. |
| Romans 9:16 | So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. | As in Osee he saith: I will call that which was not my people, my people; and her that was not beloved, beloved; and her that had not obtained mercy, one that hath obtained mercy. | So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that hath mercy. |
| Romans 9:17 | 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. | And it shall be, in the place where it was said unto them, You are not my people; there they shall be called the sons of the living God. | 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. |
| Romans 9:18 | Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth. | And Isaias crieth out concerning Israel: If the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved. | So then he hath mercy on whom he will, and whom he will be hardeneth. |
| Romans 9:19 | Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? | For he shall finish his word, and cut it short in justice; because a short word shall the Lord make upon the earth. | Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he still find fault? For who withstandeth his will? |
| Romans 9:20 | Nay 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? | And as Isaias foretold: Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been made as Sodom, and we had been like unto Gomorrha. | Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why didst thou make me thus? |
| Romans 9:21 | Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? | What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who followed not after justice, have attained to justice, even the justice that is of faith. | 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? |
| Romans 9:22 | What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: | But Israel, by following after the law of justice, is not come unto the law of justice. | What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering vessels of wrath fitted unto destruction: |
| Romans 9:23 | And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory, | Why so? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were of works. For they stumbled at the stumblingstone. | and that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he afore prepared unto glory, |
| Romans 9:24 | Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles? | As it is written: Behold I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and a rock of scandal; and whosoever believeth in him shall not be confounded. | [even] us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles? |
| Romans 9:25 | As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. | | As he saith also in Hosea, I will call that my people, which was not my people; And her beloved, that was not beloved. |
| Romans 9:26 | And 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. | | 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. |
| Romans 9:27 | Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved: | | 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: |
| Romans 9:28 | For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. | | for the Lord will execute [his] word upon the earth, finishing it and cutting it short. |
| Romans 9:29 | And 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. | | 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. |
| Romans 9:30 | What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith. | | What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who followed not after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith: |
| Romans 9:31 | But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. | | but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, did not arrive at [that] law. |
| Romans 9:32 | Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; | | Wherefore? Because [they sought it] not by faith, but as it were by works. They stumbled at the stone of stumbling; |
