Romans 11:12-20

12Now if their transgression means riches for the world and their defeat means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full restoration bring?

13Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Seeing that I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry,

14if somehow I could provoke my people to jealousy and save some of them.

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

16If the first portion of the dough offered is holy, then the whole batch is holy, and if the root is holy, so too are the branches.

17Now if some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among them and participated in the richness of the olive root,

18do not boast over the branches. But if you boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.

19Then you will say, “The branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.”

20Granted! They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but fear!
