Romans 9:14-18
Legacy Standard Bible
14 (A)What shall we say then? (B)Is there any unrighteousness with God? (C)May it never be! 15 For He says to Moses, “(D)I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” 16 So then it does not depend on the one who wills or the one who (E)runs, but on (F)God who has mercy. 17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “(G)For this very purpose I raised you up, in order to demonstrate My power in you, and in order that My name might be proclaimed [a]throughout the whole earth.” 18 So then He has mercy on whom He desires, and He (H)hardens whom He desires.

[a](C)Far from it! 15 For He says to Moses, “(D)I will have mercy on whomever I have mercy, and I will show compassion to whomever I show compassion.” 16 So then, it does not depend on the person who [b]wants it nor the one who [c](E)runs, but on (F)God who has mercy. 17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “(G)For this very reason I raised you up, in order to demonstrate My power in you, and that My name might be proclaimed [d]throughout the earth.” 18 So then He has mercy on whom He desires, and He (H)hardens whom He desires.
