45:009:014 What shall we say then?  Is there unrighteousness with God?  God
           forbid.

45:009:015 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.

45:009:016 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that
           runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

45:009:017 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same
           purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in
           thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the
           earth.

45:009:018 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom
           he will he hardeneth.

45:009:019 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault?  For
           who hath resisted his will?

45:009:020 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God?  Shall
           the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made
           me thus?

45:009:021 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to
           make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

45:009:022 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power
           known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath
           fitted to destruction: 

45:009:023 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the
           vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

45:009:024 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also
           of the Gentiles?

45:009:025 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which
           were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.

45:009:026 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said
           unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called
           the children of the living God.

45:009:027 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the
           children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall
           be saved: 

45:009:028 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in
           righteousness:  because a short work will the Lord make upon
           the earth.

45:009:029 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left
           us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto
           Gomorrha.

45:009:030 What shall we say then?  That the Gentiles, which followed not
           after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the
           righteousness which is of faith.

45:009:031 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness,
           hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
