Romans 11:5-36

5In the sameG3779 wayG3779 thenG3767, there has alsoG2532 comeG1096 to be at the presentG3568 timeG2540 1a remnantG3005 accordingG2596 to God’s 2graciousG5485 choiceG1589. 6But 3ifG1487 it is by graceG5485, it is noG3765 longerG3765 4on the basisG1537 of worksG2041, otherwiseG1893 graceG5485 is noG3765 longerG3765 graceG5485.

7WhatG5101 thenG3767? WhatG5101 5IsraelG2474 is seekingG1934, it has not obtainedG2013, but 6thoseG1589 who were chosenG1589 obtainedG2013 it, and the restG3062 were 7hardenedG4456; 8justG2509 as it is writtenG1125, “8GodG2316 gaveG1325 them a spiritG4151 of stuporG2659, EyesG3788 to seeG991 not and earsG3775 to hearG191 not, DownG2193 to thisG4594 veryG4594 dayG2250.” 9And DavidG1160 saysG3004, “9Let their tableG5132 becomeG1096 a snareG3803 and a trapG2339, And a stumblingG4625 blockG4625 and a retributionG468 to them.1010Let their eyesG3788 be darkenedG4654 to seeG991 not, And bendG4781 their backsG3577 foreverG1223G3956.”

1111I sayG3004 thenG3767, they did not stumbleG4417 soG2443 as to fallG4098, did they? 12May it neverG3361 be! But by their transgressionG3900 13salvationG4991 has come to the GentilesG1484, to 14makeG3863 them jealousG3863. 12NowG1161 ifG1487 their transgressionG3900 is richesG4149 for the worldG2889 and their failureG2275 is richesG4149 for the GentilesG1484, howG4214 muchG4214 moreG3123 will their 1516fulfillmentG4138 be! 13But I am speakingG3004 to you who are GentilesG1484. InasmuchG1909G3745 thenG3767 as 17I amG1510 an apostleG652 of GentilesG1484, I magnifyG1392 my ministryG1248, 14ifG1487 somehowG4458 I might 18moveG3863 to jealousyG3863 19my 20fellowG4561 countrymenG4561 and 21saveG4982 someG5100 of them. 15For ifG1487 their rejectionG580 is the 22reconciliationG2643 of the worldG2889, whatG5101 will their acceptanceG4356 be but 23lifeG2222 from the deadG3498? 16IfG1487 the 24firstG536 pieceG536 of dough is holyG40, the lumpG5445 is alsoG2532; and ifG1487 the rootG4491 is holyG40, the branchesG2798 are tooG2532.

17But ifG1487 someG5100 of the 25branchesG2798 were brokenG1575 offG1575, and 26you, beingG1510 a wildG65 oliveG65, were graftedG1461 in amongG1722 them and becameG1096 partakerG4791 with them of the 27richG4096 rootG4491 of the oliveG1636 treeG1636, 18do not be arrogantG2620 towardG2620 the branchesG2798; but ifG1487 you are arrogantG2620, remember that 28it is not you who supportsG941 the rootG4491, but the rootG4491 supports you. 1929You will sayG3004 thenG3767, “BranchesG2798 were brokenG1575 offG1575 soG2443 that I might be graftedG1461 in.” 20QuiteG2573 rightG2573, they were brokenG1575 offG1575 for their unbeliefG570, but you 30standG2476 by your faithG4102. 31Do not be conceitedG5426G5308, but fearG5399; 21for ifG1487 GodG2316 did not spareG5339 the naturalG5449 branchesG2798, He will not spareG5339 you, eitherG3761. 22BeholdG3708 thenG3767 the kindnessG5544 and severityG663 of GodG2316; to thoseG3588 who fellG4098, severityG663, but to you, God’sG2316 32kindnessG5544, 33ifG1437 you continueG1961 in His kindnessG5544; otherwiseG1893 you alsoG2532 34will be cutG1581 offG1581. 23And they alsoG2548, 35ifG1437 they do not continueG1961 in their unbeliefG570, will be graftedG1461 in, for GodG2316 is ableG1415 to graftG1461 them in againG3825. 24For ifG1437 you were cutG1581 offG1581 from whatG65 is by natureG5449 a wildG65 oliveG65 treeG65, and were graftedG1461 contraryG3844 to natureG5449 into a cultivatedG2565 oliveG2565 treeG2565, howG4214 muchG4214 moreG3123 will theseG3778 whoG3588 are the naturalG2596G5449 branches be graftedG1461 into their ownG2398 oliveG1636 treeG1636?

25For 36I do not wantG2309 you, brethrenG80, to be uninformedG50 of thisG3778 37mysteryG3466--soG2443G3361 that you will not be 38wiseG5429 in your ownG1438 estimationG1438--that a partialG3313 39hardeningG4457 has happenedG1096 to IsraelG2474 untilG891 the 40fullnessG4138 of the GentilesG1484 has comeG1525 in; 26and soG3779 allG3956 IsraelG2474 will be savedG4982; justG2531 as it is writtenG1125, “41The DelivererG4506 will comeG2240 from ZionG4622, He will removeG654 ungodlinessG763 from JacobG2384.”27“42ThisG3778 is 43My covenantG1242 with them, 44WhenG3752 I takeG851 awayG851 their sinsG266.” 2845From the standpointG2596 of the gospelG2098 they are 46enemiesG2190 for your sakeG1223, but 47from the standpointG2596 of God’s choiceG1589 they are belovedG27 for 48the sakeG1223 of the fathersG3962; 29for the giftsG5486 and the 49callingG2821 of GodG2316 50are irrevocableG278. 30For justG5618 as you onceG4218 were disobedientG544 to GodG2316, but nowG3568 have been shownG1653 mercyG1653 because of their disobedienceG543, 31soG3779 theseG3778 alsoG2532 nowG3568 have been disobedientG544, that because of the mercyG1656 shown to you they alsoG2532 may nowG3568 be shownG1653 mercyG1653. 32For 51GodG2316 has shutG4788 up allG3956 in disobedienceG543 soG2443 that He may showG1653 mercyG1653 to allG3956.

33OhG5599, the depthG899 of 52the richesG4149 53bothG2532 of the 54wisdomG4678 and knowledgeG1108 of GodG2316! 55HowG5613 unsearchableG419 are His judgmentsG2917 and unfathomableG421 His waysG3598! 34For 56whoG5101 has knownG1097 the mindG3563 of the LordG2962, orG2228 whoG5101 becameG1096 His counselorG4825? 35OrG2228 57whoG5101 has firstG4272 givenG4272 to Him 58that it might be paidG467 backG467 to him again? 36For 59from Him and throughG1223 Him and to Him are allG3956 thingsG3956. 60To Him be the gloryG1391 61foreverG165. AmenG281.
