Romans 9:11-13

New International Version - UK

¹¹ Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad – in order that God’s purpose in election might stand: ¹² not by works but by him who calls – she was told, ‘The older will serve the younger.’^{[a] 13} Just as it is written: ‘Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.’^[b]
