Romans 9:1-5

Riverside(i) 1 I AM speaking the truth in Christ; I am saying nothing false; my conscience bears witness with me in the Holy Spirit 2 that I have great grief and unceasing pain in my heart. 3 For I could wish myself to be accursed and cast away from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh, 4 who are Israelites, whose is the sonship and the glory and the covenants and the reception of the law and the worship and the promises; 5 whose are the fathers and from whom by physical descent the Christ came. God who is over all be blessed through the ages! Amen.
