[11] I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to them to jealousy. [12] Now 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? [13] I speak Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify office: [14] I may provoke to emulation flesh, and might save some of them. [15] For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving life from the dead? [16] For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also if the root be holy, so are the branches. [17] And of the branches be broken off, and thou, a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; [18] not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root [19] Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in. [20] Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. not but fear: [21] For if God spared not the natural branches, spare not [22] therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. [23] And they abide still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God able them in again. [24] For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
