008:029 For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.{The word for "brothers" here and where context allows may also be correctly translated "brothers and sisters" or "siblings."} 008:030 Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified. 008:031 What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 008:032 He who didn't spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things? 008:033 Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies. 008:034 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. 008:035 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 008:036 Even as it is written, "For your sake we are killed all day long.

I am not lying, my conscience testifying with me in the Holy Spirit, 009:002 that I have great sorrow and unceasing pain in my heart. 009:003 For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brothers' sake, my relatives according to the flesh, 009:004 who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service, and the promises; 009:005 of whom are the fathers, and from whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God, blessed forever. Amen. 009:006 But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel, that are of Israel. 009:007 Neither, because they are Abraham's seed, are they all children. But, "In Isaac will your seed be called."{Genesis 21:12} 009:008 That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as a seed. 009:009 For this is a word of promise, "At the appointed time I will come, and Sarah will have a son."{Genesis 18:10,14} 009:010 Not only so, but Rebecca also conceived by one, by our father Isaac. 009:011 For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad,
