Romans 11:11-16

English Standard Version

Gentiles Grafted In

¹¹ So I ask, did they stumble in order that they might fall? By no means! Rather, through their trespass ^(A)salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous. ¹² Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion^[a] mean!

¹³ Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as ^(B)I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry ¹⁴ in order somehow to make my fellow Jews jealous, and ^(C)thus save some of them. ¹⁵ For if their rejection means ^(D)the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead? ^16 (E)If the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, so is the whole lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
