Roma 1:14

1:14 I am a debtor ¹  both to the Greeks and to the barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.

Roma 9:8

9:8 This means ²  it is not the children of the flesh ³  who are the children of God; rather, the children of promise are counted as descendants.

[1:14]  ¹ tn Or “obligated.”

[9:8]  ² tn Grk “That is,” or “That is to say.”

[9:8]  ³ tn Because it forms the counterpoint to “the children of promise” the expression “children of the flesh” has been retained in the translation.

[9:8]  sn The expression the children of the flesh refers to the natural offspring.
