Romans 11:16-18
New American Standard Bible
16 If the (A)first piece of dough is holy, the lump is also; and if the root is holy, the branches are as well.
17 But if some of the (B)branches were broken off, and (C)you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the [a]rich root of the olive tree, 18 do not be arrogant toward the branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that (D)it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you.

Romans 11:16-18
New International Version
16 If the part of the dough offered as firstfruits(A) is holy, then the whole batch is holy; if the root is holy, so are the branches.
17 If some of the branches have been broken off,(B) and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others(C) and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, 18 do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you.(D)
