Romans 11:28Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895As touching the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sake. See the chapter |
Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go in to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
