Romans:11:11-24

*
I say then ,
have they stumbled that they should fall ?
Certainly not !
But through their fall ,
to provoke them to jealousy ,
salvation has come to the Gentiles .
*
Now if their fall is riches for the world ,
and their failure riches for the Gentiles ,
how much more their fullness !
*
For I speak to you Gentiles ;
inasmuch as I am an apostle to the Gentiles ,
I magnify my ministry ,
*
if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them .
*
For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world ,
what will their acceptance be but life from the dead ?
*
For if the firstfruit is holy ,
the lump is also holy ;
and if the root is holy ,
so are the branches .
*
And if some of the branches were broken off ,
and you ,
being a wild olive tree ,
were grafted in among them ,
and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree ,
*
do not boast against the branches .
But if you do boast ,
remember that you do not support the root ,
but the root supports you .
*
You will say then , "
Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in ."
*
Well said .
Because of unbelief they were broken off ,
and you stand by faith .
Do not be haughty ,
but fear .
*
For if God did not spare the natural branches ,
He may not spare you either .
*
Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God :
on those who fell ,
severity ;
but toward you ,
goodness ,
if you continue in His goodness .
Otherwise you also will be cut off .
*
And they also ,
if they do not continue in unbelief ,
will be grafted in ,
for God is able to graft them in again .
*
For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature ,
and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree ,
how much more will these ,
who are natural branches ,
be grafted into their own olive tree ?
