Romans 9:1-5

Jubilee Bible 2000

9 ¶ I say the truth in Christ, I do not lie, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,

² that I have great sorrow and continual pain in my heart.

³ For I could wish that myself were anathema from Christ for my brethren, those who are my kinsmen according to the flesh,

⁴ who are Israelites, to whom pertains the adoption as sons and the glory and the covenants and the giving of the law and the service of God and the promises,

⁵ whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh is the Christ, who is God over all things, blessed for all the ages. Amen.
