Romans 9:16-18
Modern English Version
16 So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy. 17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be proclaimed in all the earth.”[a] 18 Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and He hardens whom He wills.
