'Chosen' in the Bible

So the last shall be first, and the first last, for many are called, and few chosen.'

for many are called, and few chosen.'

And if those days were not shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but because of the chosen, shall those days be shortened.

for there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and they shall give great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, also the chosen.

and he shall send his messengers with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his chosen from the four winds, from the ends of the heavens unto the ends thereof.
