But when God, who from my mother’s womb set me apart and called me by his grace, was pleased

然而，那把我从母腹里分别出来、又施恩召我的神，

然而，那位把我从母腹里分别出来、又施恩呼召我的上帝，既然乐意

然而，那位把我从母腹里分别出来、又施恩呼召我的神，既然乐意

然而，当我还在母腹中的时候，上帝就施恩将我分别出来并呼召了我。

然而，当我在母腹里就把我分别出来，又用他的恩呼召我的那一位，

然而神，就是当我在母腹里时就把我分别出来、又藉着他的恩典召唤我的那一位，乐意

然而，那把我從母腹裏分別出來、又施恩召我的神，

然而，那位把我從母腹裏分別出來、又施恩呼召我的上帝，既然樂意

然而，那位把我從母腹裏分別出來、又施恩呼召我的神，既然樂意

然而，當我還在母腹中的時候，上帝就施恩將我分別出來並呼召了我。

然而，當我在母腹裡就把我分別出來，又用他的恩呼召我的那一位，

然而那從我母腹分別了我、藉他的恩召了我、的上帝、

然而神，就是當我在母腹裡時就把我分別出來、又藉著他的恩典召喚我的那一位，樂意

然自母胎甄別我、以恩召我之上帝、

然我自生時、上帝已定命恩召我、

然自我母胎選我、以恩召我之天主、

然選我於胎中、而召我以特恩者、

But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace, was pleased

But God set me apart from before the time I was born. He showed me his grace by appointing me. He was pleased

But when he who had set me apart before I was born, and who called me by his grace,

But even before I was born, God chose me and called me by his marvelous grace. Then it pleased him

But when He who had set me apart even from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace was pleased

But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace,

But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me, even from my mother’s womb, and called me through his grace,

But when God, who from my birth set me apart and called me by His grace, was pleased

But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called[ me] by his grace,

But when the one who set me apart from birth and called me by his grace was pleased

But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through his grace

I chose you before I formed you in the womb; I set you apart before you were born. I appointed you a prophet to the nations.

And now, says the LORD, who formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob back to him so that Israel might be gathered to him; for I am honored in the sight of the LORD, and my God is my strength—

Coasts and islands, listen to me; distant peoples, pay attention. The LORD called me before I was born. He named me while I was in my mother’s womb.

God is faithful; you were called by him into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called as an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God—

As they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said,“ Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”

But the Lord said to him,“ Go, for this man is my chosen instrument to take my name to Gentiles, kings, and Israelites.

But we ought to thank God always for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God has chosen you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and through belief in the truth.He called you to this through our gospel, so that you might obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, establish, strengthen, and support you after you have suffered a little while.

He has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began.

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

“ Yet the LORD God of Israel chose me out of all my father’s family to be king over Israel forever. For he chose Judah as leader, and from the house of Judah, my father’s family, and from my father’s sons, he was pleased to make me king over all Israel.And out of all my sons— for the LORD has given me many sons— he has chosen my son Solomon to sit on the throne of the LORD’s kingdom over Israel.

Yet to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God,

And those he predestined, he also called; and those he called, he also justified; and those he justified, he also glorified.

The LORD will not abandon his people, because of his great name and because he has determined to make you his own people.

And he said,‘ The God of our ancestors has appointed you to know his will, to see the Righteous One, and to hear the words from his mouth,since you will be a witness for him to all people of what you have seen and heard.

This is according to his eternal purpose accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord.

“ The LORD had his heart set on you and chose you, not because you were more numerous than all peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples.But because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors, he brought you out with a strong hand and redeemed you from the place of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

He predestined us to be adopted as sons through Jesus Christ for himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

For he will be great in the sight of the Lord and will never drink wine or beer. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit while still in his mother’s womb.He will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God.

I am amazed that you are so quickly turning away from him who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—

He made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure that he purposed in Christ

At that time he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said,“ I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, because this was your good pleasure.

Through him we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the Gentiles,

I give thanks to Christ Jesus our Lord who has strengthened me, because he considered me faithful, appointing me to the ministry—even though I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an arrogant man. But I received mercy because I acted out of ignorance in unbelief,and the grace of our Lord overflowed, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

Yes, Father, because this was your good pleasure.

Paul, called as an apostle of Christ Jesus by God’s will, and Sosthenes our brother:

on us, the ones he also called, not only from the Jews but also from the Gentiles?
