12. Now if their transgression leads to riches for the world, and their loss riches for the Gentiles, then how much more their fullness!
13. But I am speaking to you who are Gentiles. Insofar as I am an emissary to the Gentiles, I spotlight my ministry
14. if somehow I might provoke to jealousy my own flesh and blood and save some of them.
15. For if their rejection leads to the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?
16. If the firstfruit is holy, so is the whole batch of dough; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
17. But if some of the branches were broken off and you—being a wild olive—were grafted in among them and became a partaker of the root of the olive tree with its richness,
18. do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, it is not you who support the root but the root supports you.
19. You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.”
20. True enough. They were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but fear—
21. for if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will He spare you.
22. Notice then the kindness and severity of God: severity toward those who fell; but God’s kindness toward you, if you continue in His kindness; otherwise you too will be cut off!
23. And they also, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in; for God is able to graft them in again.
24. For if you were cut out of that which by nature is a wild olive tree, and grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree?
25. For I do not want you, brothers and sisters, to be ignorant of this mystery—lest you be wise in your own eyes—that a partial hardening has come upon Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in;
26. and in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written, “The Deliverer shall come out of Zion. He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
