Romans 11:23-29
International Standard Version
Romans 11:23-29
International Standard Version
23 If the Jews[a] do not persist in their unbelief, they will be grafted in again, because God is able to graft them in. 24 After all, if you were cut off from what is naturally a wild olive tree, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much easier it will be for these natural branches to be grafted back into their own olive tree!
The Restoration of Israel
25 For I want to let you know about this secret, brothers, so that you will not claim to be wiser than you are: Stubbornness has come to part of Israel until the full number of the gentiles comes to faith.[b] 26 In this way, all Israel will be saved, as it is written,
“The Deliverer will come from Zion;
he will remove ungodliness from Jacob.
27 This is my covenant with them
when I take away their sins.”[c]
28 As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies for your sake, but as far as election is concerned, they are loved for the sake of their ancestors. 29 For God’s gifts and calling never change.

New International Version
23 And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.(A) 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,(B) 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(C) of this mystery,(D) brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited:(E) Israel has experienced a hardening(F) in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in,(G) 26 and in this way[a] all Israel will be saved.(H) 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](I)
28 As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies(J) for your sake; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs,(K) 29 for God’s gifts and his call(L) are irrevocable.(M)
