Romans 11:9-16

9And David says, "Let their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a retribution for them;

10let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see, and bend their backs forever."

11So I ask, did they stumble in order that they might fall? By no means! Rather, through their trespass salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous.

12Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion mean!

13Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry

14in order somehow to make my fellow Jews jealous, and thus save some of them.

15For if their rejection means the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead?

16If the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, so is the whole lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
