I I speak the truth in Christ; I am not lying, as confirmed by my conscience in the Holy Spirit.
Ἀλήθειαν [The] truth N-ASF λέγω I speak V-PAI-1S ἐν in PREP Χριστῷ, Christ, N-DSM-T οὐ Not PRT-N ψεύδομαι, I am lying, V-PNI-1S συμμαρτυρούσης while is bearing witness V-PAP-GSF μοι with me P-1DS τῆς the T-GSF συνειδήσεώς conscience N-GSF μου of mine P-1GS ἐν in [the] PREP πνεύματι Spirit N-DSN ἁγίῳ, Holy, A-DSN

3 For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my own flesh and blood,

4 the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory and the covenants; theirs the giving of the law, the temple worship, and the promises.
οἵτινές who R-NPM εἰσιν are V-PAI-3P Ἰσραηλῖται, Israelites, N-NPM-PG ὧν whose [is] R-GPM ἡ the T-NSF υἱοθεσία divine adoption as sons N-NSF καὶ and CONJ ἡ the T-NSF δόξα glory N-NSF καὶ and CONJ αἱ the T-NPF διαθῆκαι covenants N-NPF καὶ and CONJ ἡ the T-NSF νομοθεσία lawgiving N-NSF καὶ and CONJ ἡ the T-NSF λατρεία service N-NSF καὶ and CONJ αἱ the T-NPF ἐπαγγελίαι, promises, N-NPF
5 Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them proceeds the human descent of Christ, who is God over all, forever worthy of praise! Amen.
ὧν whose [are] R-GPM οἱ the T-NPM πατέρες, patriarchs N-NPM καὶ and CONJ ἐξ from PREP ὧν whom [is] R-GPM ὁ <the> T-NSM χριστὸς Christ N-NSM-T τὸ <the> T-ASN κατὰ according to PREP σάρκα, the flesh, N-ASF ὁ who T-NSM ὢν is being V-PAP-NSM ἐπὶ over PREP πάντων, all A-GPN θεὸς God N-NSM-T εὐλογητὸς blessed A-NSM εἰς to PREP τοὺς the T-APM αἰῶνας· ages, N-APM ἀμήν. Amen. INJ-HEB
6 It is not as though God’s word has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.
Οὐχ [It is] not PRT-N οἷον as K-NSN δὲ however CONJ ὅτι that CONJ ἐκπέπτωκεν has failed V-RAI-3S ὁ the T-NSM λόγος word N-NSM τοῦ <the> T-GSM θεοῦ. of God. N-GSM-T οὐ Not PRT-N γὰρ for CONJ πάντες all A-NPM οἱ who [are] T-NPM ἐξ of PREP Ἰσραήλ, Israel N-GSM-L οὗτοι [are] these D-NPM Ἰσραήλ· Israel; N-NSM-L
7 Nor because they are Abraham’s descendants are they all his children. On the contrary, “Through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.”
οὐδ’ Nor CONJ-N ὅτι because CONJ εἰσὶν they are V-PAI-3P σπέρμα seed N-NSN Ἀβραάμ, of Abraham N-GSM-P πάντες [are] all A-NPM τέκνα, children, N-NPN ἀλλ’· rather CONJ Ἐν In PREP Ἰσαὰκ Isaac N-DSM-P κληθήσεταί will be named V-FPI-3S σοι to you P-2DS σπέρμα. offspring. N-NSN
8 So it is not the children of the flesh who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as offspring.
τοῦτ’ That D-NSN ἔστιν, is V-PAI-3S οὐ not PRT-N τὰ the T-NPN τέκνα children N-NPN τῆς of the T-GSF σαρκὸς flesh N-GSF ταῦτα these [are] D-NPN τέκνα children N-NPN τοῦ <the> T-GSM θεοῦ, of God, N-GSM-T ἀλλὰ but CONJ τὰ the T-NPN τέκνα children N-NPN τῆς of the T-GSF ἐπαγγελίας promise N-GSF λογίζεται are regarded V-PNI-3S εἰς as PREP σπέρμα· offspring. N-ASN
9 For this is what the promise stated: “At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”
ἐπαγγελίας Of [the] promise N-GSF γὰρ for CONJ ὁ the T-NSM λόγος word N-NSM οὗτος· [is] this: D-NSM Κατὰ At PREP τὸν <the> T-ASM καιρὸν time N-ASM τοῦτον this D-ASM ἐλεύσομαι I will come V-FDI-1S καὶ and CONJ ἔσται there will be V-FDI-3S τῇ <the> T-DSF Σάρρᾳ to Sarah N-DSF-P υἱός. a son. N-NSM
10 Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac.
οὐ Not PRT-N μόνον only A-ASN δέ, then, CONJ ἀλλὰ but CONJ καὶ also CONJ Ῥεβέκκα Rebecca N-NSF-P ἐξ by PREP ἑνὸς one A-GSM κοίτην conception N-ASF ἔχουσα, having V-PAP-NSF Ἰσαὰκ Isaac N-GSM-P τοῦ the T-GSM πατρὸς father N-GSM ἡμῶν· of us; P-1GP
11 Yet before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad, in order that God’s plan of election might stand,
μήπω not yet PRT-N + G4452=PRT γὰρ for CONJ γεννηθέντων having been born V-APP-GPM μηδὲ nor CONJ-N πραξάντων having done V-AAP-GPM τι anything X-ASN ἀγαθὸν good A-ASN ἢ or CONJ φαῦλον, evil, A-ASN ἵνα so that CONJ ἡ the T-NSF κατ’ according to PREP ἐκλογὴν election N-ASF πρόθεσις purpose N-NSF τοῦ <the> T-GSM θεοῦ of God N-GSM-T μένῃ, may stand, V-PAS-3S
12 not by works but by Him who calls, she was told, “The older will serve the younger.”
οὐκ not PRT-N ἐξ of PREP ἔργων works N-GPN ἀλλ’ but CONJ ἐκ of PREP τοῦ the [One] T-GSM καλοῦντος, calling, V-PAP-GSM ἐρρέθη [12] it was said V-API-3S αὐτῇ to her P-DSF ὅτι that CONJ Ὁ The T-NSM μείζων older A-NSM-C δουλεύσει will serve V-FAI-3S τῷ the T-DSM ἐλάσσονι· younger; A-DSM-C
13 So it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
καθὼς Even as CONJ γέγραπται· it has been written: V-RPI-3S Τὸν <the> T-ASM Ἰακὼβ Jacob N-ASM-P ἠγάπησα, I loved, V-AAI-1S τὸν <the> T-ASM δὲ but CONJ Ἠσαῦ Esau N-ASM-L ἐμίσησα. I hated. V-AAI-1S
14 What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Certainly not!
Τί What I-ASN οὖν then CONJ ἐροῦμεν; will we say? V-FAI-1P μὴ Not PRT-N ἀδικία injustice N-NSF παρὰ with PREP τῷ <the> T-DSM θεῷ; God [is there]? N-DSM-T μὴ Never PRT-N γένοιτο· would it be! V-2ADO-3S
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.”
τῷ <the> T-DSM Μωϋσεῖ To Moses N-DSM-P γὰρ for CONJ λέγει· He says: V-PAI-3S Ἐλεήσω I will show mercy to V-FAI-1S ὃν whom R-ASM ἂν maybe PRT ἐλεῶ, I may show mercy V-PAS-1S καὶ and CONJ οἰκτιρήσω I will have compassion on V-FAI-1S ὃν whom R-ASM ἂν maybe PRT οἰκτίρω. I may have compassion. V-PAS-1S
16 So then, it does not depend on man’s desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.
ἄρα So CONJ οὖν then CONJ οὐ [it is] not PRT-N τοῦ of the [one who is] T-GSM θέλοντος willing V-PAP-GSM οὐδὲ nor CONJ-N τοῦ of the [one who is] T-GSM τρέχοντος running V-PAP-GSM ἀλλὰ but CONJ τοῦ of the [one who is] T-GSM ἐλεῶντος showing mercy V-PAP-GSM θεοῦ. of God. N-GSM-T
17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power in you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”
λέγει Says V-PAI-3S γὰρ for CONJ ἡ the T-NSF γραφὴ Scripture N-NSF τῷ <the> T-DSM Φαραὼ to Pharaoh N-DSM-T ὅτι that CONJ Εἰς For PREP αὐτὸ this very P-ASN τοῦτο therefore D-ASN ἐξήγειρά I have raised up V-AAI-1S σε you P-2AS ὅπως so that CONJ ἐνδείξωμαι I may show V-AMS-1S ἐν in PREP σοὶ you P-2DS τὴν the T-ASF δύναμίν power N-ASF μου, of Mine P-1GS καὶ and CONJ ὅπως that CONJ διαγγελῇ may be declared V-2APS-3S τὸ the T-ASN ὄνομά name N-ASN μου of Me P-1GS ἐν in PREP πάσῃ all A-DSF τῇ the T-DSF γῇ. earth. N-DSF
18 Therefore God has mercy on whom He wants to have mercy, and He hardens whom He wants to harden.
ἄρα So CONJ οὖν then CONJ ὃν to whom R-ASM θέλει He wants V-PAI-3S ἐλεεῖ, He shows mercy, V-PAI-3S ὃν whom R-ASM δὲ now CONJ θέλει He wants V-PAI-3S σκληρύνει. He hardens. V-PAI-3S
19 One of you will say to me, “Then why does God still find fault? For who can resist His will?”
Ἐρεῖς You will say V-FAI-2S μοι to me P-1DS οὖν· then: CONJ Τί Why I-ASN οὖν then CONJ ἔτι still ADV μέμφεται; does He find fault? V-PNI-3S τῷ The T-DSN γὰρ for CONJ βουλήματι purpose N-DSN αὐτοῦ of Him P-GSM τίς who I-NSM ἀνθέστηκεν; has been resisting? V-RAI-3S
20 But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to Him who formed it, “Why did You make me like this?”
ὦ O INJ ἄνθρωπε, man, N-VSM μενοῦνγε but rather, PRT σὺ you yourself P-2NS τίς who I-NSM εἶ are V-PAI-2S ὁ who T-NSM ἀνταποκρινόμενος is answering against V-PNP-NSM τῷ <the> T-DSM θεῷ; to God?

ADV
21 Does not the potter have the right to make from the same lump of clay one vessel for special occasions and another for common use?
ἢ Or CONJ οὐκ not PRT-N ἔχει has V-PAI-3S ἐξουσίαν authority N-ASF ὁ the T-NSM κεραμεὺς potter N-NSM τοῦ over the T-GSM πηλοῦ clay N-GSM ἐκ out of PREP τοῦ the T-GSN αὐτοῦ same P-GSN φυράματος lump N-GSN ποιῆσαι to make V-AAN ὃ one R-ASN μὲν indeed PRT εἰς unto PREP τιμὴν honor N-ASF σκεῦος vessel N-ASN ὃ one R-ASN δὲ however CONJ εἰς unto PREP ἀτιμίαν; dishonor? N-ASF
22 What if God, intending to show His wrath and make His power known, bore with great patience the vessels of His wrath, prepared for destruction?
εἰ What if COND δὲ now CONJ θέλων desiring V-PAP-NSM ὁ <the> T-NSM θεὸς God N-NSM-T ἐνδείξασθαι to show V-AMN τὴν the T-ASF ὀργὴν wrath N-ASF καὶ and CONJ γνωρίσαι to make known V-AAN τὸ the T-ASN δυνατὸν power A-ASN αὐτοῦ of Him P-GSM ἤνεγκεν bore V-AAI-3S ἐν with PREP πολλῇ much A-DSF μακροθυμίᾳ patience N-DSF σκεύη [the] vessels N-APN ὀργῆς of wrath N-GSF κατηρτισμένα fitted V-RPP-APN εἰς for PREP ἀπώλειαν, destruction, N-ASF
23 What if He did this to make the riches of His glory known to the vessels of His mercy, whom He prepared in advance for glory—
καὶ also CONJ ἵνα that CONJ γνωρίσῃ He may make known V-AAS-3S τὸν the T-ASM πλοῦτον riches N-ASM τῆς of the T-GSF δόξης glory N-GSF αὐτοῦ of Him P-GSM ἐπὶ upon PREP σκεύη [the] vessels N-APN ἐλέους, of mercy N-GSN ἃ which R-APN προητοίμασεν He prepared beforehand V-AAI-3S εἰς for PREP δόξαν, glory? N-ASF
24 including us, whom He has called not only from the Jews, but also from the Gentiles?
οὓς whom R-APM καὶ even CONJ ἐκάλεσεν He has called V-AAI-3S ἡμᾶς us P-1AP οὐ not PRT-N μόνον only A-ASN ἐξ out from PREP Ἰουδαίων [the] Jews N-GPM-PG ἀλλὰ but CONJ καὶ also CONJ ἐξ out from PREP ἐθνῶν;— [the] Gentiles, N-GPN
25 As He says in Hosea: “I will call them ‘My People’ who are not My people, and I will call her ‘My Beloved’ who is not My beloved,”
ὡς As PRT καὶ also CONJ ἐν in PREP τῷ <the> T-DSM Ὡσηὲ Hosea N-DSM-P λέγει· He says: V-PAI-3S Καλέσω I will call V-FAI-1S τὸν that which [is] T-ASM οὐ not PRT-N λαόν people N-ASM μου of Mine P-1GS λαόν people N-ASM μου of Mine P-1GS καὶ and CONJ τὴν her who T-ASF οὐκ not PRT-N ἠγαπημένην loved V-RPP-ASF ἠγαπημένην· loved. V-RPP-ASF
26 and, “It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’”
καὶ and CONJ ἔσται It will happen that V-FDI-3S ἐν in PREP τῷ the T-DSM τόπῳ place N-DSM οὗ where ADV ἐρρέθη it was said V-API-3S αὐτοῖς· to them; P-DPM Οὐ Not PRT-N λαός people N-NSM μου of Mine [are] P-1GS ὑμεῖς, You yourselves, P-2NP ἐκεῖ there ADV κληθήσονται they will be called V-FPI-3P υἱοὶ sons N-NPM θεοῦ of God N-GSM-T ζῶντος.

27 Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the Israelites is like the sand of the sea, only the remnant will be saved.
Ἠσαΐας Isaiah N-NSM-P δὲ also CONJ κράζει cries out V-PAI-3S ὑπὲρ concerning PREP τοῦ <the> T-GSM Ἰσραήλ· Israel: N-GSM-L Ἐὰν Though COND ᾖ shall be V-PAS-3S ὁ the T-NSM ἀριθμὸς number N-NSM τῶν of the T-GPM υἱῶν sons N-GPM Ἰσραὴλ of Israel N-GSM-L ὡς as PRT ἡ the T-NSF ἄμμος sand N-NSF τῆς of the T-GSF θαλάσσης, sea, N-GSF τὸ [only] the T-NSN ὑπόλειμμα vestige N-NSN σωθήσεται· will be saved; V-FPI-3S
28 For the Lord will carry out His sentence on the earth thoroughly and decisively.”

29 It is just as Isaiah foretold: “Unless the Lord of Hosts had left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom, we would have resembled Gomorrah.”

30 What then will we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith;
Τί What I-ASN οὖν then CONJ ἐροῦμεν; will we say? V-FAI-1P ὅτι That CONJ ἔθνη Gentiles N-NPN τὰ <the> T-NPN μὴ not PRT-N διώκοντα pursuing V-PAP-NPN δικαιοσύνην righteousness N-ASF κατέλαβεν have grasped V-2AAI-3S δικαιοσύνην, righteousness, N-ASF δικαιοσύνην righteousness N-ASF δὲ now CONJ τὴν that [is] T-ASF ἐκ by PREP πίστεως· faith; N-GSF
31 but Israel, who pursued a law of righteousness, has not attained it.

32 Why not? Because their pursuit was not by faith, but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,
διὰ Because of PREP τί; why? I-ASN ὅτι Because [it was] CONJ οὐκ not PRT-N ἐκ by PREP πίστεως faith N-GSF ἀλλ’ but CONJ ὡς as PRT ἐξ by PREP ἔργων· works N-GPN προσέκοψαν They stumbled V-AAI-3P τῷ over the T-DSM λίθῳ stone N-DSM τοῦ <the> T-GSN προσκόμματος, of stumbling N-GSN
33 as it is written: “See, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; and the one who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
καθὼς even as CONJ γέγραπται· it has been written: V-RPI-3S Ἰδοὺ Behold INJ τίθημι I lay V-PAI-1S ἐν in PREP Σιὼν Zion N-DSF-L λίθον a stone N-ASM προσκόμματος of stumbling N-GSN καὶ and CONJ πέτραν a rock N-ASF σκανδάλου, of offense, N-GSN καὶ and CONJ ὁ who T-NSM πιστεύων is believing V-PAP-NSM ἐπ’ on PREP αὐτῷ Him P-DSM οὐ never PRT-N καταισχυνθήσεται. will be put to shame.
