1 I am telling the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience testifies

with me in the Holy Spirit, 2 that I have great sorrow and unceasing

grief in my heart. 3 For I could wish that I myself were accursed,

separated from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen

according to the flesh

33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of

God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways!

34 For Who has known the mind of the Lord, or who became His

counselor? 35 Or Who has first given to Him that it might be paid back

to Him again? 36 For from Him and through Him and to Him are all

things. To Him be the glory forever . Amen.

Romans 9:1-3, 11:33-36 NASB
