who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service, and the promises;
他們是以色列人；那兒子的名分、榮耀、諸約、律法、禮儀、應許都是他們的。

of whom are the fathers, and from whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God, blessed forever. Amen.

But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel that are of Israel.
這不是說上帝的話落了空。因為從以色列生的不都是以色列人，

For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls,
雙子還沒有生下來，善惡還沒有做出來，只因要顯明上帝揀選人的旨意，不在乎人的行為，乃在乎召人的主。）

9:16
ናሁኬ ኢኮነ ለዘበደረ ወለዘሮጸ ዘእንበለ ዳእሙ ለዘእግዚአብሔር ምህሮ ።

9:17
ወይቤሎ እግዚአብሔር በመጽሐፍ ለፈርዖን «በእንተዝ አንሣእኩከ ከመ አርኢ ኀይልየ በላዕሌከ ወይሰማዕ ስምየ በኵሉ ምድር ።»

But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, “Why did you make me like this?”
你這個人哪，你是誰，竟敢向上帝強嘴呢？受造之物豈能對造他的說：「你為甚麼這樣造我呢？」
9:21
ኢኮነኑ ብዉሐ ለብሓዊ ይግበር እምአሐዱ ጽቡር ንዋየ መንፈቆ ለክብር ወመንፈቆ ለኀሣር ።
Or hasn’t the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor?
窯匠難道沒有權柄從一團泥裏拿一塊做成貴重的器皿，又拿一塊做成卑賤的器皿嗎？
9:22
ወእመኒ ፈቀደ እግዚአብሔር ያርኢ መቅሠፍተ ኀይሉ ያመጽእ መላእክተ መዓቱ አርአዮ ትዕግሥቶ እለ ድልዋን ለአማስኖ ።
What if God, willing to show his wrath and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,
倘若上帝要顯明他的忿怒，彰顯他的權能，就多多忍耐寬容那可怒、預備遭毀滅的器皿，
9:23
ወከመ ያርኢ ካዕበ ብዕለ ስብሐቲሁ ያመጽእ መላእክተ ምሕረቱ እለ ድልዋን ለሣህል ላዕለ እለ ጸውዐ ወአቅደመ አእምሮ ።
and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory—
又要將他豐盛的榮耀彰顯在那蒙憐憫、早預備得榮耀的器皿上。
9:24

us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles?
這器皿就是我們被上帝所召的，不但是從猶太人中，也是從外邦人中。這有甚麼不可呢？
9:25
በከመ ይቤ ሆሴዕ ነቢይ «እሬስዮ ሕዝብየ ለዘኢኮነ ሕዝብየ ወእሬስያ ፍቅርትየ ለእንተ ኢኮነት ፍቅርትየ ።
As he says also in Hosea, “I will call them ‘my people,’ which were not my people; and her ‘beloved,’ who was not beloved.”
就像上帝在何西阿書上說： 那本來不是我子民的， 我要稱為「我的子民」； 本來不是蒙愛的， 我要稱為「蒙愛的」。
9:26
ወይከውኑ ውሉደ እግዚአብሔር ሕያው በብሔር በኀበ ይቤልዎሙ ኢኮንክሙ ሕዝበ እግዚአብሔር ።»
“It will be that in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ there they will be called ‘children of the living God.’”

9:27
ኢሳይያስኒ ከልሐ ወይቤ በእንተ እስራኤል «ለእመ ኮነ ኍልቆሙ ለደቂቀ እስራኤል ከመ ኆፃ ባሕር እለ ተርፉ ይድኅኑ ።
Isaiah cries concerning Israel, “If the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea, it is the remnant who will be saved;
以賽亞指着以色列人喊着說：「以色列人雖多如海沙，得救的不過是剩下的餘數；
9:28
እስመ ኅሉቀ ወምቱረ ነገረ ይነግር እግዚአብሔር ውስተ ዓለም ዘሀለዎ ይግበር ።»
for he will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, because the Lord will make a short work upon the earth.”
因為主要在世上施行他的話，叫他的話都成全，速速地完結。」
9:29
ወበከመ አቅደመ ኢሳይያስ ብሂለ «ሶበ አኮ እግዚአብሔር ጸባኦት ዘአትረፈ ለነ ዘርዐ ከመ ሰዶም እምኮነ ወከመ ገሞራ እመሰልነ ።»
As Isaiah has said before, “Unless the Lord of Armies had left us a seed, we would have become like Sodom, and would have been made like Gomorrah.”
又如以賽亞先前說過： 若不是萬軍之主給我們存留餘種， 我們早已像所多瑪、蛾摩拉的樣子了。
9:30
ምንተ እንከ ንብል አረሚ ጥቀ እለ ኢኀሠሥዋ ለጽድቅ ረከብዋ ለጽድቅ ወጸድቁ በአሚን ።
What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn’t follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;
這樣，我們可說甚麼呢？那本來不追求義的外邦人反得了義，就是因信而得的義。
9:31
ወእስራኤልሰ እንዘ ይዴግንዋ ለኦሪቶሙ ስእኑ ጸዲቀ እስመ ኢፈጸሙ ገቢረ ሕገገ ኦሪቶሙ ።
but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn’t arrive at the law of righteousness.
但以色列人追求律法的義，反得不着律法的義。
9:32
በእንተ ምንት እስመ ኢኮነ ጽድቆሙ በአሚን ዘእንበለ ዳእሙ በገቢረ ሕገገ ኦሪት ወአዕቀፈቶሙ እብነ ዕቅፍት ።
Why? Because they didn’t seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,
這是甚麼緣故呢？是因為他們不憑着信心求，只憑着行為求；他們正跌在那絆腳石上。
9:33
እስመ ከማሁ ይቤ መጽሐፍ «ናሁ አነብር ውስተ ጽዮን እብነ ዕቅፍት ወእብነ ጌጋይ ወዘአምነ ባቲ ኢይትኀፈር ለዓለም ።»
even as it is written, “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offense; and no one who believes in him will be disappointed.”
就如經上所記： 我在錫安放一塊絆腳的石頭，跌人的磐石； 信靠他的人必不至於羞愧。
