Romans 9:4-6

New Century Version

⁴ They are the people of Israel, God’s chosen children. They have seen the glory of God, and they have the agreements that God made between himself and his people. God gave them the law of Moses and the right way of worship and his promises. ⁵ They are the descendants of our great ancestors, and they are the earthly family into which Christ was born, who is God over all. Praise him forever!^[a] Amen.

⁶ It is not that God failed to keep his promise to them. But only some of the people of Israel are truly God’s people,^[b]
