Romans 11:1 | I ask then, Did God reject his people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. | Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see: and bow down their back always. | So I say, Has God put his people on one side? Let there be no such thought. For I am of Israel, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. |
Romans 11:2 | God didn't reject his people, which he foreknew. Or don't you know what the scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel: | I say then, have they so stumbled, that they should fall? God forbid. But by their offence, salvation is come to the Gentiles, that they may be emulous of them. | God has not put away the people of his selection. Or have you no knowledge of what is said about Elijah in the holy Writings? how he says words to God against Israel, |
Romans 11:3 | "Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have broken down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life." | Now if the offence of them be the riches of the world, and the diminution of them, the riches of the Gentiles; how much more the fulness of them? | Lord, they have put your prophets to death, and made waste your altars, and now I am the last, and they are searching for me to take away my life. |
Romans 11:4 | But how does God answer him? "I have reserved for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal." | For I say to you, Gentiles: as long indeed as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I will honour my ministry, | But what answer does God make to him? I have still seven thousand men whose knees have not been bent to Baal. |
Romans 11:5 | Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace. | If, by any means, I may provoke to emulation them who are my flesh, and may save some of them. | In the same way, there are at this present time some who are marked out by the selection of grace. |
Romans 11:6 | And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work. | For if the loss of them be the reconciliation of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? | But if it is of grace, then it is no longer of works: or grace would not be grace. |
Romans 11:7 | What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn't obtain, but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened. | For if the firstfruit be holy, so is the lump also: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. | What then? That which Israel was searching for he did not get, but those of the selection got it and the rest were made hard. |
Romans 11:8 | According as it is written, "God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day." | And if some of the branches be broken, and thou, being a wild olive, art ingrafted in them, and art made partaker of the root, and of the fatness of the olive tree, | As it was said in the holy Writings, God gave them a spirit of sleep, eyes which might not see, and ears which have no hearing, to this day. |
Romans 11:9 | David says, "Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, A stumbling block, and a retribution to them. | Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. | And David says, Let their table be made a net for taking them, and a stone in their way, and a punishment: |
Romans 11:10 | Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see. Bow down their back always." | Thou wilt say then: The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in. | Let their eyes be made dark so that they may not see, and let their back be bent down at all times. |
Romans 11:11 | I ask then, did they stumble that they might fall? Certainly not! But by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy. | Well: because of unbelief they were broken off. But thou standest by faith: be not highminded, but fear. | So I say, Were their steps made hard in order that they might have a fall? In no way: but by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, so that they might be moved to envy. |
Romans 11:12 | Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fullness? | For if God hath not spared the natural branches, fear lest perhaps he also spare not thee. | Now, if their fall is the wealth of the world, and their loss the wealth of the Gentiles, how much greater will be the glory when they are made full? |
Romans 11:13 | For I speak to you who are Gentiles. Since then as I am an apostle to Gentiles, I glorify my ministry; | See then the goodness and the severity of God: towards them indeed that are fallen, the severity; but towards thee, the goodness of God, if thou abide in goodness, otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. | But I say to you, Gentiles, in so far as I am the Apostle of the Gentiles, I make much of my position: |
Romans 11:14 | if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and may save some of them. | And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again. | If in any way those who are of my flesh may be moved to envy, so that some of them may get salvation by me. |
Romans 11:15 | For if the rejection of them [is] the reconciling of the world, what would the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? | For if thou wert cut out of the wild olive tree, which is natural to thee; and, contrary to nature, were grafted into the good olive tree; how much more shall they that are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree? | For, if by their putting away, the rest of men have been made friends with God, what will their coming back again be, but life from the dead? |
Romans 11:16 | If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump. If the root is holy, so are the branches. | For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, of this mystery, (lest you should be wise in your own conceits), that blindness in part has happened in Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles should come in. | And if the first-fruit is holy, so is the mass: and if the root is holy, so are the branches. |
Romans 11:17 | 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 root of the richness of the olive tree; | And so all Israel should be saved, as it is written: There shall come out of Sion, he that shall deliver, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob. | But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, an olive-tree of the fields, were put in among them, and were given a part with them in the root by which the olive-tree is made fertile, |
Romans 11:18 | don't boast over the branches. But if you boast, it is not you who bear the root, but the root you. | And this is to them my covenant: when I shall take away their sins. | Do not be uplifted in pride over the branches: because it is not you who are the support of the root, but it is by the root that you are supported. |
Romans 11:19 | You will say then, "Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in." | As concerning the gospel, indeed, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are most dear for the sake of the fathers. | You will say, Branches were broken off so that I might be put in. |
Romans 11:20 | True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Don't be conceited, but fear; | For the gifts and the calling of God are without repentance. | Truly, because they had no faith they were broken off, and you have your place by reason of your faith. Do not be lifted up in pride, but have fear; |
Romans 11:21 | for if God didn't spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. | For as you also in times past did not believe God, but now have obtained mercy, through their unbelief; | For, if God did not have mercy on the natural branches, he will not have mercy on you. |
Romans 11:22 | See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off. | So these also now have not believed, for your mercy, that they also may obtain mercy. | See then that God is good but his rules are fixed: to those who were put away he was hard, but to you he has been good, on the condition that you keep in his mercy; if not, you will be cut off as they were. |
Romans 11:23 | They also, if they don't continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. | For God hath concluded all in unbelief, that he may have mercy on all. | And they, if they do not go on without faith, will be united to the tree again, because God is able to put them in again. |
Romans 11:24 | For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree? | O the depth of the riches of the wisdom and of the knowledge of God! How incomprehensible are his judgments, and how unsearchable his ways! | For if you were cut out of a field olive-tree, and against the natural use were united to a good olive-tree, how much more will these, the natural branches, be united again with the olive-tree which was theirs? |
Romans 11:25 | For I don't desire, brothers, to have you ignorant of this mystery, so that you won't be wise in your own conceits, that a hardening in part has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles have come in, | For who hath known the mind of the Lord? Or who hath been his counsellor? | For it is my desire, brothers, that this secret may be clear to you, so that you may not have pride in your knowledge, that Israel has been made hard in part, till all the Gentiles have come in; |
Romans 11:26 | and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written, "There will come out of Zion the Deliverer, And he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob. | Or who hath first given to him, and recompense shall be made him? | And so all Israel will get salvation: as it is said in the holy Writings, There will come out of Zion the One who makes free; by him wrongdoing will be taken away from Jacob: |
Romans 11:27 | This is my covenant to them, When I will take away their sins." | For of him, and by him, and in him, are all things: to him be glory for ever. Amen. | And this is my agreement with them, when I will take away their sins. |
Romans 11:28 | Concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sake. | | As far as the good news is in question, they are cut off from God on account of you, but as far as the selection is in question, they are loved on account of the fathers. |
Romans 11:29 | For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. | | Because God's selection and his mercies may not be changed. |
Romans 11:30 | For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience, | | For as you, in time past, were not under the rule of God, but now have got mercy through their turning away, |
Romans 11:31 | even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy. | | So in the same way these have gone against the orders of God, so that by the mercy given to you they may now get mercy. |
Romans 11:32 | For God has shut up all to disobedience, that he might have mercy on all. | | For God has let them all go against his orders, so that he might have mercy on them all. |
Romans 11:33 | Oh 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! | | O how deep is the wealth of the wisdom and knowledge of God! no one is able to make discovery of his decisions, and his ways may not be searched out. |
Romans 11:34 | "For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?" | | Who has knowledge of the mind of the Lord? or who has taken part in his purposes? |
Romans 11:35 | "Or who has first given to him, And it will be repaid to him again?" | | Or who has first given to him, and it will be given back to him again? |
Romans 11:36 | For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever! Amen. | | For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever. So be it. |
