Romans 9:3-8

Noyes(i) 3 For I could wish to be myself accursed and cast out from Christ in behalf of my brethren, my kinsmen as to the flesh; 4 who are Israelites; whom God adopted as sons, whose was the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the Law, and the service of the sanctuary, and the promises; 5 whose are the fathers, and from whom, as to the flesh, was the Christ. He who is over all, God, be blessed for ever! Amen. 6 Not as though the word of God hath failed; for not all they that are of Israel are Israel; 7 nor because they are descendants of Abraham are they all children; but, "Thy offspring shall be reckoned from Isaac." 8 That is, not the children by natural descent are children of God, but the children to whom the promise is made are accounted as the offspring.
