Romans 9:1-5
1 |
I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit, |
2 |
that I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart. |
3 |
For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen according to the flesh, |
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; |
5 |
of whom are the fathers and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, the eternally blessed God. Amen. |
