Romans 11:9-20

9And David says, Let their table be for a snare, and for a gin, and for a fall-trap, and for a recompense to them:

16Now if the first-fruit [be] holy, the lump also; and if the root [be] holy, the branches also.

17Now if some of the branches have been broken out, and thou, being a wild olive tree, hast been grafted in amongst them, and hast become a fellow-partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree,

18boast not against the branches; but if thou boast, [it is] not thou bearest the root, but the root thee.

19Thou wilt say then, The branches have been broken out in order that I might be grafted in.
