28 So that, as concerning the gospel, I have them for enemies for your sakes; but as touching the election of God, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes.
29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
30 For as ye in time past have not obeyed God, yet have now obtained mercy through the occasion of their disobedience,
31 likewise these also have not believed now that through the mercy shown unto you they also may obtain mercy.
32 For God enclosed everyone in disobedience, that he might have mercy upon everyone.
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and of the knowledge of God! How incomprehensible are his judgments and his ways past finding out!
34 For who has understood the intent of the Lord? or who has been his counsellor?
