1I say then, HasGod cast away his people? Far be the thought. For I also am an Israelite, of [the] seed of Abraham, of [the] tribe of Benjamin.
1I say then, Did God cast off his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2God has not cast away his people whom he foreknew. Know ye not what the scripture says in [the history of] Elias, how he pleads withGod against Israel?
2God did not cast off his people which he foreknew. Or know ye not what the scripture saith of Elijah? how he pleadeth with God against Israel:
3Lord, they have killed thy prophets, they have dug down thine altars; and I have been left alone, and they seek my life.
3Lord, they have killed thy prophets, they have digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
4But what says the divine answer to him? I have left to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed knee to Baal.
4But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have left for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
5Thus, then, in the present time also there has been a remnant according to election of grace.
5Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
6But if by grace, no longer of works: since [otherwise] grace is no more grace.
6But if it is by grace, it is no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace.
7What [is it] then? What Israel seeks for, that he has not obtained; but the election has obtained, and the rest have been blinded,
7What then? That which Israel seeketh for, that he obtained not; but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened:
8according as it is written,God has given to them a spirit of slumber, eyes not to see, and ears not to hear, unto this day.
8according as it is written, God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, unto this very day.
9And David says, Let their table be for a snare, and for a gin, and for a fall-trap, and for a recompense to them:
9And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, And a stumblingblock, and a recompense unto them:
10let their eyes be darkened not to see, and bow down their back alway.
10Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, And bow thou down their back always.
11I say then, Have they stumbled in order that they might fall? Far be the thought: but by their fall [there is] salvation to the nations to provoke them to jealousy.
11I say then, Did they stumble that they might fall? God forbid: but by their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
12But if their fall [be the] world's wealth, and their loss [the] wealth of [the] nations, how much rather their fulness?
12Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
13For I speak to you, the nations, inasmuch as I am apostle of nations, I glorify my ministry;
13But I speak to you that are Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle of Gentiles, I glorify my ministry;
14if by any means I shall provoke to jealousy [them which are] my flesh, and shall save some from among them.
14if by any means I may provoke to jealousy them that are my flesh, and may save some of them.
15For if their casting away [be the] world's reconciliation, what [their] reception but life from among [the] dead?
15For if the casting away of them is the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
16Now if the first-fruit [be] holy, the lump also; and if the root [be] holy, the branches also.
16And if the firstfruit is holy, so is the lump: and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
17Now if some of the branches have been broken out, and thou, being a wild olive tree, hast been grafted in amongst them, and hast become a fellow-partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree,
17But if some of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive, wast grafted in among them, and didst become partaker with them of the root of the fatness of the olive tree;
18boast not against the branches; but if thou boast, [it is] not thou bearest the root, but the root thee.
18glory not over the branches: but if thou gloriest, it is not thou that bearest the root, but the root thee.
19Thou wilt say then, The branches have been broken out in order that I might be grafted in.
19Thou wilt say then, Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
20Right: they have been broken out through unbelief, and thou standest through faith. Be not high-minded, but fear:
20Well; by their unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by thy faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21ifGod indeed has not spared the natural branches; lest it might be he spare not thee either.
21for if God spared not the natural branches, neither will he spare thee.
22Behold then [the] goodness and severity ofGod: upon them who have fallen, severity; upon thee goodness ofGod, if thou shalt abide in goodness, since [otherwise] thou also wilt be cut away.
22Behold then the goodness and severity of God: toward them that fell, severity; but toward thee, God’s goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
23And they too, if they abide not in unbelief, shall be grafted in; forGod is able again to graft them in.
23And they also, if they continue not in their unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
24For if thou hast been cut out of the olive tree wild by nature, and, contrary to nature, hast been grafted into the good olive tree, how much rather shall they, who are according to nature be grafted into their own olive tree?
24For if thou wast cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree; how much more shall these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
25For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, of this mystery, that ye may not be wise in your own conceits, that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the nations be come in;
25For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant of this mystery, lest ye be wise in your own conceits, that a hardening in part hath befallen Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in;
26and so all Israel shall be saved. According as it is written, The deliverer shall come out of Zion; he shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
26and so all Israel shall be saved: even as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer; He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
27And this is the covenant from me to them, when I shall have taken away their sins.
27And this is my covenant unto them, When I shall take away their sins.
28As regards the glad tidings, [they are] enemies on your account; but as regards election, beloved on account of the fathers.
28As touching the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sake.
29For the gifts and the calling ofGod [are] not subject to repentance.
29For the gifts and the calling of God are not repented of.
30For as indeed ye [also] once have not believed inGod, but now have been objects of mercy through the unbelief of these;
30For as ye in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
31so these also have now not believed in your mercy, in order that they also may be objects of mercy.
31even so have these also now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they also may now obtain mercy.
32ForGod hath shut up together all in unbelief, in order that he might shew mercy to all.
32For God hath shut up all unto disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.
33O depth of riches both of [the] wisdom and knowledge ofGod! how unsearchable his judgments, and untraceable his ways!
33O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!
34For who has known [the] mind of [the] Lord, or who has been his counsellor?
34For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?
