Romans 9:11-16 For yer the chyldren were borne, when they had nether done good nether bad (that the purpose of God by eleccyon, myght stande) it was sayde vnto her, not by the reason of workes, but by the caller:

Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹¹ For yer the chyldren were borne, when they had nether done good nether bad (that the purpose of God by eleccyon, myght stande) it was sayde vnto her, not by the reason of workes, but by the caller: ¹² the elder shall serue the younger. ¹³ As it is wrytten: Iacob haue I loued, but Esau haue I hated. ¹⁴ What shall we saye then? is there eny vnrightewesnes with God? God forbyd. ¹⁵ For he sayth to Moses: I wyll shewe mercy to whomsoeuer I shewe mercy: and wyll haue compassyon, ¹⁶ on whomsoeuer I haue compassyon. So lyeth it not then in a mans wyll or runnynge, but in the mercye of God.
