Romans 9:23 in Context — Romans 9

21 Ou não tem o oleiro poder sobre o barro, para da mesma massa fazer um vaso para honra, e outro para desonra?

22 E se Deus, querendo mostrar a [sua] ira, e dar a conhecer o seu poder, suportou com muita paciência os vasos da ira, preparados para a perdição,

23 a fim de fazer conhecidas as riquezas da sua glória nos vasos da misericórdia, que preparou com antecedência para a glória,

24 que somos nós, aos quais ele chamou, não somente dentre os judeus, mas também dentre os gentios?

25 Como também diz em Oseias: “Ao que era Não-Meu-Povo, chamarei de Meu-Povo; e a que não era Não-Amada, [chamarei] de Amada”.
