6 But it is not as though ^athe word of God has failed. ^bFor they are not all Israel who are descended from Israel; 7 nor are they all children ^abecause they are Abraham’s seed, but: “¹^bthrough Isaac your seed will be named.” 8 That is, the children of the flesh are not the ^achildren of God, but the ^bchildren of the promise are considered as seed. 9 For this is the word of promise: “^aAt this time I will come, and Sarah shall have a son.” 10 ^aAnd not only this, but there was ^bRebekah also, when she had conceived twins by one man, our father Isaac; 11 for though the twins were not yet born and had not done anything good or bad, so that the ^apurpose of God according to His choice would ¹stand, not ²because of works but ²because of Him who calls, 12 it was said to her, “^aThe older shall serve the younger.” 13 Just as it is written, “^aJacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
