RO-11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid.
For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, [of] the
tribe of Benjamin.
RO-11:2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot
ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh
intercession to God against Israel, saying,
RO-11:3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down
thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
RO-11:4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have
reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the
knee to [the image of] Baal.
RO-11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a
remnant according to the election of grace.
RO-11:6 And if by grace, then [is it] no more of works:
otherwise grace is no more grace. But if [it be] of works, then
is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
RO-11:7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he
seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest
were blinded
RO-11:8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the
spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that
they should not hear;) unto this day.
RO-11:9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a
trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompense unto them:
RO-11:10 Let their eyes be darkened that they may not see, and
bow down their back alway.
RO-11:11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall?
God forbid: but [rather] through their fall salvation [is come]
unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
RO-11:12 Now if the fall of them [be] the riches of the world,
and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much
more their fulness?
RO-11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the
apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
RO-11:14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation [them which
are] my flesh, and might save some of them.
RO-11:15 For if the casting away of them [be] the reconciling of
the world, what [shall] the receiving [of them be], but life
from the dead?
RO-11:16 For if the firstfruit [be] holy, the lump [is] also
[holy]: and if the root [be] holy, so [are] the branches.
RO-11:17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou,
being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with
them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
RO-11:18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou
bearest not the root, but the root thee.
RO-11:19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that
I might be grafted in.
RO-11:20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and
thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
RO-11:21 For if God spared not the natural branches, [take heed]
lest he also spare not thee.
RO-11:22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on
them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou
continue in [his] goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
RO-11:23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief,
shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
RO-11:24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is
wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to nature into a good
olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural
[branches], be grafted into their own olive tree?
RO-11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant
of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits;
that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness
of the Gentiles be come in.
RO-11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written,
There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away
ungodliness from Jacob:
RO-11:27 For this [is] my covenant unto them, when I shall take
away their sins.
RO-11:28 As concerning the gospel, [they are] enemies for your
sakes: but as touching the election, [they are] beloved for the
fathers' sakes.
RO-11:29 For the gifts and calling of God [are] without
repentance.
RO-11:30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have
now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
RO-11:31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through
your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
RO-11:32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he
might have mercy upon all.
RO-11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and
knowledge of God! how unsearchable [are] his judgments, and his
ways past finding out!
RO-11:34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath
been his counsellor?
RO-11:35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be
recompensed unto him again?
RO-11:36 For of him, and through him, and to him, [are] all
things: to whom [be] glory for ever. Amen.
