Romans 11:13-24

13

I am speakingG3004 to youG4771 GentilesG1484. InasmuchG1909G3303G3745G3767 as IG1473 amG1510 the apostleG652 to the GentilesG1484, I magnifyG1392 myG1473 ministryG1248 14in the hope thatG1487G4459 I may provokeG3863 myG1473 own people to jealousyG4561 andG2532 saveG4982 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846. 15ForG1063 ifG1487 theirG846 rejectionG580 is the reconciliationG2643 of the worldG2889, whatG5101 will their acceptanceG4356 be butG1487G3361 lifeG2222 fromG1537 the deadG3498? 16IfG1487 theG3588 first partG536 of the dough is holyG40, soG2532 is theG3588 whole batchG5445; ifG1487 theG3588 rootG4491 is holyG40, soG2532 are theG3588 branchesG2798.

17NowG1161 ifG1487 someG5100 branchesG2798 have been broken offG1575, andG1161 youG4771, a wild olive shootG65, have been grafted inG1461 amongG1722 the others to shareG1096G4791 in theG3588 nourishmentG4096 of theG3588 oliveG1636 rootG4491, 18do notG3361 boast overG2620 thoseG3588 branchesG2798. IfG1487 you do, remember this: YouG4771 do notG3756 supportG941 theG3588 rootG4491, butG235 theG3588 rootG4491 supports youG4771.

19You will sayG2046 thenG3767, “BranchesG2798 were broken offG1575 so thatG2443 IG1473 could be grafted inG1461.” 20That is correctG2573: They were broken offG1575 because ofG3588 unbeliefG570, butG1161 youG4771 standG2476 by faithG4102. Do notG3361 be arrogantG5308G5426, butG235 be afraidG5399. 21ForG1063 ifG1487 GodG2316 did notG3756 spareG5339 theG3588 naturalG2596G5449 branchesG2798, He will certainly notG33611 spareG5339 youG4771 either.

22Take noticeG2400, thereforeG3767, of the kindnessG5544 andG2532 severityG663 of GodG2316: severityG663 toG1909 those whoG3588 fellG4098, butG1161 kindnessG5544 toG1909 youG4771, ifG1437 you continue inG1961 His kindnessG5544. OtherwiseG1893 youG4771 alsoG2532 will be cut offG1581. 23AndG1161 ifG1437 theyG2548 do not persistG3361G1961 in unbeliefG570, they will be grafted inG1461, forG1063 GodG2316 isG1510 ableG1415 to graftG1461 them inG846 againG3825. 24ForG1063 ifG1487 youG4771 were cutG1581 fromG1537 a wild olive treeG2596G5449G65, andG2532 contrary toG3844 natureG5449 were graftedG1461 intoG1519 one that is cultivatedG2565, how muchG4214 moreG3123 readily will theseG3778, theG3588 naturalG2596G5449 branches, be grafted intoG1461 their ownG2398 olive treeG1636!
