^{3 Ref} For I could wish that I myself were anathema from Christ for my brethren's sake, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

^{4 Ref} who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service `of God', and the promises;

^{5 Ref} whose are the fathers, and of whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
