Romans 9:18 in Context — Romans 9
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?
20 O homme, toi plutôt, qui es-tu pour contester avec Dieu? Le vase d’argile dira-t-il à celui qui l’a formé: Pourquoi m’as-tu fait ainsi?
