Deuteronomy 7:7-8
7It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the Lord set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples, 8but ait is because the Lord loves you and is keeping bthe oath that he swore to your fathers, that the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.Psalms 18:19
19He brought me out into ca broad place;he rescued me, because he ddelighted in me.
Romans 9:18
18So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills.Romans 9:23-24
23in order to make known ethe riches of his glory for vessels of mercy, which he fhas prepared beforehand for glory— 24even us whom he ghas called, hnot from the Jews only but also from the Gentiles?
