'Says' in the Bible

Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, so that every mouth may be closed and all the world may become accountable to God;

For He says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”

For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I raised you up, to demonstrate My power in you, and that My name might be proclaimed throughout the whole earth.”

As He says also in Hosea,“I will call those who were not My people, ‘My people,’And her who was not beloved, ‘beloved.’”

For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in Him will not be disappointed.”

However, they did not all heed the good news; for Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”

But I say, surely Israel did not know, did they? First Moses says,“I will make you jealous by that which is not a nation,By a nation without understanding will I anger you.”

And Isaiah is very bold and says,“I was found by those who did not seek Me,I became manifest to those who did not ask for Me.”

But as for Israel He says, “All the day long I have stretched out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people.”

God has not rejected His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?

And David says,“Let their table become a snare and a trap,And a stumbling block and a retribution to them.

Never take your own revenge, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.

For it is written,“As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me,And every tongue shall give praise to God.”

Again he says,“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people.”

Again Isaiah says,“There shall come the root of Jesse,And He who arises to rule over the Gentiles,In Him shall the Gentiles hope.”
