Romans 9:17 in Context — Romans 9
15 Car il dit à Moïse: Je ferai miséricorde à qui je fais miséricorde, et j’aurai compassion de qui j’ai compassion.
16 Ainsi donc, cela ne dépend ni de celui qui veut, ni de celui qui court, mais de Dieu qui fait miséricorde.
17 Car l’Écriture dit à Pharaon: Je t’ai suscité à dessein pour montrer en toi ma puissance, et afin que mon nom soit publié par toute la terre.
18 Ainsi, il fait miséricorde à qui il veut, et il endurcit qui il veut.
19 Tu me diras: Pourquoi blâme-t-il encore? Car qui est-ce qui résiste à sa volonté?
