Romans 9:27-29

Easy-to-Read Version

“There are so many people of Israel,
    they are like the grains of sand by the sea.
But only a few of them will be saved.
²⁸     Yes, the Lord will quickly finish judging the people on the earth.” ^(A)

“The Lord All-Powerful
    allowed some of our people to live.
If he had not done that,

    and we would be like Gomorrah.” ^(B)
