You aren't reading it properly.
You don't want to or you can't. Not sure what is going on here.
Romans 9:15-16
15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
It would be not of THEM that willeth or THEM that runneth were an entire NATION being talked about here.
Romans 9:20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
Nay but "O Nation...."
This whole part is talking about individuals. IT IS ALSO talking about the nation of Israel. But that doesn't subtract from the fact that it is about INDIVIDUALS too.

jesus did not take an OT passage out of context and make it mean something Other than what it origional meant. That would be a crime, and misinterpreting the origional author
romans 9 is arguing again all of Israel’s argument ts against Christ, and showing the gentile church of rome that God did not make a mistake choosing Israel to begin with,
he was not speaking to an induvidual
Have you even read the passage to which paul quoted? How can you have an understanding without going OT the source to see context of how it was used?
