1
I say
then,
God
has not rejected
His people,
has He? May it never
be! For I too
am
an Israelite,
a descendant
of Abraham,
of the tribe
of Benjamin.
2
God
has not rejected
His people
whom
He foreknew.
Or
do you not know
what
the Scripture
says
in the passage about Elijah,
how
he pleads
with
God
against
Israel?
3
"Lord,
THEY HAVE KILLED
YOUR PROPHETS,
THEY HAVE TORN DOWN
YOUR ALTARS,
AND I ALONE
AM LEFT,
AND THEY ARE SEEKING
MY LIFE."
4
But what
is the divine response
to him? "I HAVE KEPT
for Myself
SEVEN THOUSAND
MEN
WHO
HAVE NOT BOWED
THE KNEE
TO BAAL."
5
In the same way
then,
there has also
come
to be at the present
time
a remnant
according
to God's gracious
choice.
6
But if
it is by
grace
,
it
is no
longer
on the basis
of works,
otherwise
grace
is no
longer
grace
.
7
What
then?
What
Israel
is seeking,
it has not
obtained
,
but those who were chosen
obtained
it, and the rest
were hardened;
8
just
as it is written,
"GOD
GAVE
THEM A SPIRIT
OF STUPOR,
EYES
TO SEE
NOT AND EARS
TO HEAR
NOT, DOWN
TO THIS VERY
DAY."
9
And David
says,
"LET THEIR TABLE
BECOME
A SNARE
AND A TRAP,
AND A STUMBLING BLOCK
AND A RETRIBUTION
TO THEM.
10
"LET THEIR EYES
BE DARKENED
TO SEE
NOT, AND BEND
THEIR BACKS
FOREVER."
11
I say
then,
they did not stumble
so
as to fall,
did they? May it never
be! But by their transgression
salvation
has come to the Gentiles,
to make them jealous.
12
Now
if
their transgression
is riches
for the world
and their failure
is riches
for the Gentiles,
how much
more
will their fulfillment
be!
13
But I am speaking
to you who are Gentiles.
Inasmuch
then
as I am
an apostle
of Gentiles,
I magnify
my ministry,
14
if
some
how
I might move to jealousy
my fellow countrymen
and save
some
of them.
15
For if
their rejection
is the reconciliation
of the world,
what
will their acceptance
be but life
from the dead?
16
If
the first piece
of dough
is holy,
the lump
is also;
and if
the root
is holy,
the branches
are too.
17
But if
some
of the branches
were broken off,
and you, being
a wild olive,
were grafted
in among
them and became
partaker
with them of the rich
root
of the olive tree,
18
do not be arrogant
toward
the branches;
but if
you are arrogant,
remember that it is not you who supports
the root,
but the root
supports you.
19
You will say
then,
"Branches
were broken off
so
that I might be grafted
in."
20
Quite right,
they were broken off
for their unbelief,
but you stand
by your faith.
Do not be conceited,
but fear;
21
for if
God
did not spare
the natural
branches,
He will not spare
you, either.
22
Behold
then
the kindness
and severity
of God;
to those
who fell,
severity,
but to you, God's
kindness,
if
you continue
in His kindness;
otherwise
you also
will be cut off.
23
And they also,
if
they do not continue
in their unbelief,
will be grafted
in, for God
is able
to graft
them in again.
24
For if
you were cut off
from what
is by nature
a wild olive tree,
and were grafted
contrary
to nature
into a cultivated olive tree,
how much
more
will these
who
are the natural
branches be grafted
into their own
olive tree?
25
For I do not want
you, brethren,
to be uninformed
of this
mystery--
so
that you will not be wise
in your own estimation--
that a partial
hardening
has happened
to Israel
until
the fullness
of the Gentiles
has come
in;
26
and so
all
Israel
will be saved;
just
as it is written,
"THE DELIVERER
WILL COME
FROM ZION,
HE WILL REMOVE
UNGODLINESS
FROM JACOB."
27
"THIS
IS MY COVENANT
WITH THEM, WHEN
I TAKE AWAY
THEIR SINS."
28
From the standpoint
of the gospel
they are enemies
for your sake,
but from the standpoint
of God's choice
they are beloved
for the sake
of the fathers;
29
for the gifts
and the calling
of God
are irrevocable.
30
For just
as you once
were disobedient
to God,
but now
have been shown mercy
because of their disobedience,
31
so
these
al
so
now
have been di
so
bedient,
that because of the mercy
shown to you they
al
so
may
now
be shown mercy.
32
For God
has shut
up all
in di
so
bedience
so
that He may show mercy
to all.
33
Oh,
the depth
of the riches
both
of the wisdom
and knowledge
of God!
How
unsearchable
are His judgments
and unfathomable
His ways!
34
For
WHO
HAS KNOWN
THE MIND
OF THE LORD,
OR
WHO
BECAME
HIS COUNSELOR?
35
Or
WHO
HAS FIRST GIVEN
TO HIM THAT IT MIGHT BE PAID BACK
TO HIM AGAIN?
36
For from Him and through
Him and to Him are all things.
To Him be the glory
forever.
Amen.
