11:11I 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.
11:12Now 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?
11:13For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
11:14If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.
11:15For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
11:16For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
11:17And 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;
11:18Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
11:19Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.
11:20Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
11:21For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
