Romans 9:12-14

Contemporary English Version

^11-12 (A) Even before they were born or had done anything good or bad, the Lord told Rebekah that her older son would serve the younger one. The Lord said this to show he makes his own choices and it wasn't because of anything either of them had done. ^13 (B) That's why the Scriptures say that the Lord liked Jacob more than Esau.

¹⁴ Are we saying God is unfair? Certainly not!
