Romans 9:23

9:23 And what if he is willing to make known the wealth of his glory on the objects ¹  of mercy that he has prepared beforehand for glory –

Romans 15:9

15:9 and thus the Gentiles glorify God for his mercy. ²  As it is written, “Because of this I will confess you among the Gentiles, and I will sing praises to your name.” ³ 

[9:23]  ¹ tn Grk “vessels.” This is the same Greek word used in v. 21.

[15:9]  ² tn There are two major syntactical alternatives which are both awkward: (1) One could make “glorify” dependent on “Christ has become a minister” and coordinate with “to confirm” and the result would be rendered “Christ has become a minister of circumcision to confirm the promises…and so that the Gentiles might glorify God.” (2) One could make “glorify” dependent on “I tell you” and coordinate with “Christ has become a minister” and the result would be rendered “I tell you that Christ has become a minister of circumcision…and that the Gentiles glorify God.” The second rendering is preferred.

[15:9]  ³ sn A quotation from Ps 18:49.
