CHAPTER 9
1I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,  2That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.  3For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:  4Who are Israelites; to whom pertains the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; 5Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.  6Not as though the word of God has taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:  7Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.  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.  9For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son.  10And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;  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 calls;)  12It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.  13As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.  14What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.  15For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.  16So then it is not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God that shows mercy.  17For the scripture says unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised you up, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.  18Therefore has he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardens.  19You will say then unto me, Why does he yet find fault? For who has resisted his will?  20Nay but, O man, who are you that replies against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why has you made me thus?  21Has not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?  22What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:  23And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,  24Even us, whom he has called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?  25As he says also in Hosea, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.  26And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, You are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.  27Isaiah also cries concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:  28For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.  29And as Isaiah said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.  30What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.  31But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness.  32Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;  33As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.
This chapter is  pointed at the jews who might have taken umbridge that God seemed to have changed  from looking on them as his children to the Gentiles. But Paul clearly points out who the children of God really are. Those who have faith and God chose to have mercy on those who have faith and chose to harden the hearts of the unbelieving Jews lest they  repented at the preaching of Jesus But he has not cats them away but left a remnant as promised
CHAPTER 10
1Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.  2For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.  3For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.  4For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes.  5For Moses describes the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which does those things shall live by them.  6But the righteousness which is of faith speaks on this wise, Say not in your heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)  7Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)  8But what says it? The word is near you, even in your mouth, and in your heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;  9That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved.  10For with the heart man believesh unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.  11For the scripture says, Whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.  12For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.  13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.  14How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?  15And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!  16But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah said, Lord, who has believed our report?  17So  then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.  18But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.  19But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses said, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.  20But Isaiah is very bold, and says, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.  21But to Israel he says, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
CHAPTER 11
1I say then, Has God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.  2God has not cast away his people which he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Elijah? how he makes intercession to God against Israel, saying,  3Lord, they have killed your prophets, and dug down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.  4But what said the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.  5Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.  6And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.  7What then? Israel has not obtained that which he seeks for; is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.  12Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?  13For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:  14If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.  15For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?  16For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.  17And if some of the branches be broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them partake of the root and fatness of the olive tree;  18Boast not against the branches. But if you boast, you bear not the root, but the root bears you.  19You wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.  20Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:  21For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not you  22Behold therefore the goodness  severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness: otherwise you also shalt be cut off.  23And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.  24For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?  25For I would not, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.  26And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:  27For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.  28As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’s sakes.  29For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.  30For as you in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:  31Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.  32For God has concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.  33O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!  34For who has known the mind of the Lord? or who has been his counsellor?  35Or who has first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?  36For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.
