Romans 11:18-36

¹⁸Boast not thy selfe against the branches: and if thou boast thy selfe, thou bearest not the roote, but the roote thee.

¹⁹Thou wilt say then, The branches are broken off, that I might be graft in.

²⁰Well: through vnbeliefe they are broken off, and thou standest by faith: bee not hie minded, but feare.

²¹For if God spared not the naturall branches, take heede, least he also spare not thee.

²²Beholde therefore the bountifulnesse, and seueritie of God: towarde them which haue fallen, seueritie: but toward thee, bountifulnesse, if thou continue in his bountifulnesse: or els thou shalt also be cut off.

²³And they also, if they abide not still in vnbeliefe, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graffe them in againe.

²⁴For if thou wast cut out of the Oliue tree, which was wilde by nature, and wast graffed contrary to nature in a right Oliue tree, how much more shall they that are by nature, bee graffed in their owne Oliue tree?

²⁵For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this secret (least ye should bee arrogant in your selues) that partly obstinacie is come to Israel, vntill the fulnesse of the Gentiles be come in.

²⁶And so all Israel shalbe saued, as it is written, The deliuerer shall come out of Sion, and shall turne away the vngodlinesse from Iacob.

²⁷And this is my couenant to them, When I shall take away their sinnes.

²⁸As concerning the Gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloued for the fathers sakes.

²⁹For the giftes and calling of God are without repentance.

³⁰For euen as yee in times past haue not beleeued God, yet haue nowe obteined mercie through their vnbeliefe:

³¹Euen so nowe haue they not beleeued by the mercie shewed vnto you, that they also may obtaine mercie.

³²For God hath shut vp all in vnbeliefe, that he might haue mercie on all.

³³O the deepenesse of the riches, both of the wisdome, and knowledge of God! howe vnsearcheable are his iudgements, and his wayes past finding out!

³⁴For who hath knowen the minde of the Lord? or who was his counsellour?

³⁵Or who hath giuen vnto him first, and he shalbe recompensed?

³⁶For of him, and through him, and for him are all things: to him be glory for euer. Amen.
