Romans 9:2 in context

The verses around it, from Romans 9.

1 I speak the truth in Christ; I am not lying, as confirmed by my conscience in the Holy Spirit.

2 I have deep sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.

3 For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my own flesh and blood,

4 the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory and the covenants; theirs the giving of the law, the temple worship, and the promises.

5 Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them proceeds the human descent of Christ, who is God over all, forever worthy of praise! Amen.

6 It is not as though God’s word has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.
