Romans 11:20-32

20True enough; they were broken off because of unbelief, but you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but beware,

21because if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either.

22Therefore, consider God’s kindness and severity: severity toward those who have fallen but God’s kindness toward you — if you remain in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off.

23And even they, if they do not remain in unbelief, will be grafted in, because God has the power to graft them in again.

24For if you were cut off from your native wild olive tree and against nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these — the natural branches — be grafted into their own olive tree?

25I don’t want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you will not be conceited: A partial hardening has come upon Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.

26And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written, The Deliverer will come from Zion; he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.

27And this will be my covenant with them when I take away their sins.

28Regarding the gospel, they are enemies for your advantage, but regarding election, they are loved because of the patriarchs,

29since God’s gracious gifts and calling are irrevocable.

30As you once disobeyed God but now have received mercy through their disobedience,

31so they too have now disobeyed, resulting in mercy to you, so that they also may now receive mercy.

32For God has imprisoned all in disobedience so that he may have mercy on all.
