God hath not cast off all Israel.1 ¶ I sayºª then,º¹ Hath¹ª² Godº cast awayºª his¹² people?º God forbid.ººª Forº Iº alsoº amºª an Israelite,º ofº the seedº of Abraham,º [of] the tribeº of Benjamin.º 2 Godº hath¹ª notº cast awayºª his¹² peopleº whichº he foreknew.ººª Wot² ye¹ª notº whatº the² scriptureº saithºª ofº Elias?º howº he maketh intercessionºª to Godº againstº Israel,º saying,ºª 3 Lord,º they have killedºª thyº prophets,º andº digged downºª thineº altars;º and Iº am leftºª alone,º andº they seekºª myº life.º 4 Butº whatº saithºª the² answer of Godº unto him?º I have reservedºª to myselfº seven thousandº men,º whoº have¹ª notº bowedºª the kneeº to [the image of] Baal.º 5 Even soº thenº atº this presentº timeº alsoº there isºª a remnantº accordingº to the electionº of grace.º 6 Andº ifº by grace,º then [is it] no moreº¹ ofº works:º otherwiseº graceº isºª no moreº¹ grace.º Butº ifº [it be] ofº works,º then is² it¹ª no moreº¹ grace:º otherwiseº workº isºª no moreº¹ work.º [1] 1S 12:22; 2K 23:27; Ps 77:7; 89:31; 94:14; Jr 31:36; 33:24; Ho 9:17; Am 9:8; Ac 22:3; 26:4; Ro 3:4; 9:3; 2Co 11:22; Php 3:5.
