* For if the firstfruit be holy , the lump is also holy : and if the root be holy , so are the branches . * And if some of the branches be broken off (5681 ), and thou , being (5752 ) a wild olive tree , wert graffed in (5681 ) among them , and with them (5633 ) partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree ; * Boast not against (5737 ) the branches . But if thou boast (5736 ), thou bearest (5719 ) not the root , but the root thee . * Thou wilt say (5692 ) then , The branches were broken off (5681 ), that I might be graffed in (5686 ). * Well ; because of unbelief they were broken off (5681 ), and thou standest (5758 ) by faith . Be not highminded (5720 ), but fear (5737 ): * For if God spared (5662 ) not the natural branches , take heed lest he also spare (5667 ) not thee . * Behold (5657 ) therefore the goodness and severity of God : on them which fell (5631 ), severity ; but toward thee , goodness , if thou continue (5661 ) in his goodness : otherwise thou also shalt be cut off (5691 ). * And they also , if they abide (5661 ) not still in unbelief , shall be graffed in (5701 ): for God is (5748 ) able to graff them in (5658 ) again . * For if thou wert cut (5648 ) out of the olive tree which is wild by nature , and wert graffed (5681 ) contrary to nature into a good olive tree : how much more shall these , which be the natural branches , be graffed into (5701 ) their own olive tree ? * For I would (5719 ) not , brethren , that ye should be ignorant (5721 ) of this mystery , lest ye should be (5753 ) wise in your own conceits ; that blindness in part is happened (5754 ) to Israel , until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in (5632 ). * And so all Israel shall be saved (5701 ): as it is written (5769 ), There shall come (5692 ) out of Sion the Deliverer (5740 ), and shall turn away (5692 ) ungodliness from Jacob : * For this is my covenant unto them , when I shall take away (5643 ) their sins . * As concerning the gospel , they are enemies for your sakes : but as touching the election , they are beloved for the fathers sakes . * For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance .
