1I 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.
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.
2God 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,
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?

5Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
5Thus, then, in the present time also there has been a remnant according to election of grace.

6But if by grace, no longer of works: since [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,
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.

9And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:
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:
10Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.
10let their eyes be darkened not to see, and bow down their back alway.
11I 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.
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.
12Now 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?
12But if their fall [be the] world's wealth, and their loss [the] wealth of [the] nations, how much rather their fulness?
13For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
13For I speak to you, the nations, inasmuch as I am apostle of nations, I glorify my ministry;
14If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.
14if by any means I shall provoke to jealousy [them which are] my flesh, and shall save some from among them.
15For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
15For if their casting away [be the] world's reconciliation, what [their] reception but life from among [the] dead?
16For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
16Now if the first-fruit [be] holy, the lump also; and if the root [be] holy, the branches also.
17And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
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,
18Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
18boast not against the branches; but if thou boast, [it is] not thou bearest the root, but the root thee.
19Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.
19Thou wilt say then, The branches have been broken out in order that I might be grafted in.
20Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
20Right: they have been broken out through unbelief, and thou standest through faith. Be not high-minded, but fear:
21For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
21ifGod indeed has not spared the natural branches; lest it might be he spare not thee either.

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?
25For 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.
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;
26And 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:

30For as indeed ye [also] once have not believed inGod, but now have been objects of mercy through the unbelief of these;
31Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
31so these also have now not believed in your mercy, in order that they also may be objects of mercy.
32For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.
32ForGod hath shut up together all in unbelief, in order that he might shew mercy to all.
33O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
33O depth of riches both of [the] wisdom and knowledge ofGod! how unsearchable his judgments, and untraceable his ways!
34For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?
34For who has known [the] mind of [the] Lord, or who has been his counsellor?
