Romans 9:16 in Context — Romans 9
14 Que diremos, então? Que há injustiça da parte de Deus? De maneira nenhuma!
15 Pois ele diz a Moisés: “Terei misericórdia de quem eu tiver misericórdia, e me compadecerei de quem eu me compadecer”.
16 Portanto, não [depende] daquele que quer, nem daquele que se esforça, mas sim, de Deus, que se compadece.
17 Pois a Escritura diz a Faraó: “Para isto mesmo te levantei: para mostrar em ti o meu poder, e para que o meu nome seja anunciado em toda a terra”.
18 Portanto, ele tem misericórdia de quem quer, e endurece a quem quer.
