Romans 9:13-16
New International Version
Romans 9:13-16
New International Version
13 Just as it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”[a](A)
14 What then shall we say?(B) Is God unjust? Not at all!(C) 15 For he says to Moses,
“I will have mercy on whom I have mercy,
and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”[b](D)
16 It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.(E)

Romans 9:13-16
King James Version
13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
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.
16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
