Romans 9:1-5

Rotherham(i) 1 Truth, say I, in Christ, I utter no falsehood,––my conscience bearing witness with me in the Holy Spirit,–– 2 That I have great grief and incessant travail in my heart; 3 For I could have wished to be accursed, even I myself, from the Christ, in behalf of my brethren my kinsmen according to the flesh; –– 4 Who, indeed, are Israelites, whose are the sonship, and the glory, and the covenants, and the legislation, and the divine service, and the promises, 5 Whose are the fathers, and of whom is the Christ––according to the flesh––he who is over all, God, blessed unto the ages. Amen.
