- I am telling the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience testifies with me in the Holy Spirit,
- that I have great sorrow and unceasing grief in my heart.
- For I could wish that I myself were accursed, separated from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh,
- who are Israelites, to whom belongs the adoption as sons, and the glory and the covenants and the giving of the Law and the temple service and the promises,
- whose are the fathers, and from whom is the Christ according to the flesh, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen.

- I speak the truth in Christ--I am not lying, my conscience confirms it in the Holy Spirit--
- I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.
- For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, those of my own race,
- the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory, the covenants, the receiving of the law, the temple worship and the promises.
- Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen.

- But it is not as though the word of God has failed For they are not all Israel who are descended from Israel;
- nor are they all children because they are Abraham's descendants, but: "THROUGH ISAAC YOUR DESCENDANTS WILL BE NAMED."
- That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are regarded as descendants.
- For this is the word of promise: "AT THIS TIME I WILL COME, AND SARAH SHALL HAVE A SON."
- And not only this, but there was Rebekah also, when she had conceived twins by one man, our father Isaac;
|
- It is not as though God's word had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.
- Nor because they are his descendants are they all Abraham's children. On the contrary, "It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned."
- In other words, it is not the natural children who are God's children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham's offspring.
- For this was how the promise was stated: "At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son."
- Not only that, but Rebekah's children had one and the same father, our father Isaac.
|
- for 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 stand, not because of works but because of Him who calls,
- it was said to her, "THE OLDER WILL SERVE THE YOUNGER."
- Just as it is written, "JACOB I LOVED, BUT ESAU I HATED."
|
- Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad--in order that God's purpose in election might stand:
- not by works but by him who calls--she was told, "The older will serve the younger."
- Just as it is written: "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated."
