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 they do not see, and bend their back continually.”

11I say then, they did not stumble so as to fall, did they? May it never be! But by their false step salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke Israel to jealousy.

12Now if their transgression leads to riches for the world, and their loss riches for the Gentiles, then how much more their fullness!

13But I am speaking to you who are Gentiles. Insofar as I am an emissary to the Gentiles, I spotlight my ministry

14if somehow I might provoke to jealousy my own flesh and blood and save some of them.

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

16If the firstfruit is holy, so is the whole batch of dough; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
