Romans 11:21-28
New King James Version
Romans 11:21-28
New King James Version
21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. 22 Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, [a]goodness, (A)if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise (B)you also will be cut off. 23 And they also, (C)if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. 24 For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be (D)wise in your own [b]opinion, that (E)blindness in part has happened to Israel (F)until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And so all Israel will be [c]saved, as it is written:
(G)“The Deliverer will come out of Zion,
And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;
27 For (H)this is My covenant with them,
When I take away their sins.”
28 Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are (I)beloved for the sake of the fathers.

Romans 11:21-28
New International Version
21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either.
22 Consider therefore the kindness(A) and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue(B) in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off.(C) 23 And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.(D) 24 After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree,(E) how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!
All Israel Will Be Saved
25 I do not want you to be ignorant(F) of this mystery,(G) brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited:(H) Israel has experienced a hardening(I) in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in,(J) 26 and in this way[a] all Israel will be saved.(K) As it is written:
“The deliverer will come from Zion;
he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.
27 And this is[b] my covenant with them
when I take away their sins.”[c](L)
28 As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies(M) for your sake; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs,(N)
