9:19 You will say to me then, “Why does he still find fault? For who has ever resisted his will?”

1 sn There is a double connective here that cannot be easily preserved in English: “consequently therefore,” emphasizing the conclusion of what he has been arguing.

3 tn Grk “So then, he has mercy on whom he desires, and he hardens whom he desires.”
