Romans 11:9-20

9AndG2532 DavidG1138 saithG3004, LetG1096 theirG846 tableG3588G5132 be madeG1096 a snareG3803, andG2532 a trapG2339, andG2532 a stumblingblockG4625, andG2532 a recompenceG468 unto themG846: 10LetG4654 theirG846 eyesG3588G3788 be darkenedG4654, that they mayG991 notG3361 seeG991, andG2532 bow downG4781 theirG846 backG3588G3577 alwayG1275. 11

I sayG3004 thenG3767, Have they stumbledG4417 thatG2443 they should fallG4098? God forbidG3361G1096: butG235 rather throughG3900 theirG846 fallG3900 salvationG3588G4991 is come unto the GentilesG3588G1484, forG1519 to provokeG3863 themG846 to jealousyG3863. 12NowG1161 ifG1487 the fallG3588G3900 of themG846 be the richesG4149 of the worldG2889, andG2532 the diminishingG3588G2275 of themG846 the richesG4149 of the GentilesG1484; how muchG4214 moreG3123 theirG846 fulnessG3588G4138? 13ForG1063 I speakG3004 to youG4771 GentilesG3588G1484, inasmuch asG3745 IG1473 amG1510 the apostleG652 of the GentilesG1484, I magnifyG1392 mineG1473 officeG3588G1248: 14IfG1487 by any meansG4459 I may provoke to emulationG3863 them which are myG1473 fleshG3588G4561, andG2532 might saveG4982 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846. 15ForG1063 ifG1487 the casting awayG3588G580 of themG846 be the reconcilingG2643 of the worldG2889, whatG5101 shall the receivingG3588G4356 of them be, butG3361 lifeG2222 fromG1537 the deadG3498? 16ForG1161 ifG1487 the firstfruitG3588G536 be holyG40, the lumpG3588G5445 is alsoG2532 holy: andG2532 ifG1487 the rootG3588G4491 be holyG40, soG2532 are the branchesG3588G2798.

17AndG1161 ifG1487 someG5100 of the branchesG3588G2798 be broken offG1575, andG1161 thouG4771, beingG1510 a wild olive treeG65, wert graffedG1461 inG1722 among themG846, andG2532 with them partakestG4791 of the rootG3588G4491 andG2532 fatnessG3588G4096 of the olive treeG3588G1636; 18BoastG2620 notG3361 against the branchesG3588G2798. ButG1161 ifG1487 thou boastG2620, thouG4771 bearestG941 notG3756 the rootG3588G4491, butG235 the rootG3588G4491 theeG4771. 19Thou wilt sayG2046 thenG3767, The branchesG3588G2798 were broken offG1575, thatG2443 IG1473 might be graffed inG1461. 20WellG2573; because of unbeliefG3588G570 they were broken offG1575, andG1161 thouG4771 standestG2476 by faithG3588G4102. BeG5309 notG3361 highmindedG5309, butG235 fearG5399:
