Romans 11:14-29

¹⁴if somehow I may provoke to jealousy my fellow Jews, and thus save some of them.

¹⁵For if their casting away means reconciliation for the world, what will their acceptance be, if not life from the dead?

¹⁶For if the firstfruit is holy, so also the lump; and if the root is holy, so also the branches.

¹⁷But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and became a partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree,

¹⁸do not be arrogant towards the branches. But if you are arrogant, remember that it is not you that supports the root, but the root supports you.

¹⁹You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.”

²⁰That is true. By unbelief they were broken off, but you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but fear.

²¹For if God did not spare the natural branches, perhaps He may not spare you either.

²²Behold then the kindness and severity of God: upon those that fell, severity; but upon you, kindness, if you continue in His kindness. Otherwise you also shall be cut off.

²³And they also, if they do not remain in unbelief, shall be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

²⁴For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more shall these, the natural ones, be grafted into their own olive tree?

²⁵For I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers, lest you be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.

²⁶And so all Israel shall be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer shall come out of Zion, and He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

²⁷For this is My covenant with them, when I take away their sins.”

²⁸As regards to the gospel, they are enemies for your sake; but as regards to election, they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.

²⁹For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
