25. There is a secret truth, my brothers and sisters, which I want you to know, for it will keep you from thinking how wise you are. It is that the stubbornness of the people of Israel is not permanent, but will last only until the complete number of Gentiles comes to God.
26. And this is how all Israel will be saved. As the scripture says:“The Saviour will come from Zionand remove all wickedness from the descendants of Jacob.
27. I will make this covenant with themwhen I take away their sins.”
28. Because they reject the Good News, the Jews are God's enemies for the sake of you Gentiles. But because of God's choice, they are his friends because of their ancestors.
29. For God does not change his mind about whom he chooses and blesses.
30. As for you Gentiles, you disobeyed God in the past; but now you have received God's mercy because the Jews were disobedient.
