25 I don’t want you to be ignorant(A) of this mystery,(B) brothers and sisters, so that you will not be conceited:(C) A partial hardening has come upon Israel(D) until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.(E) 26 And in this way all[a] Israel will be saved, as it is written,

The Deliverer will come from Zion;
he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.
27 And this will be my covenant with them[b](F)
when I take away their sins.[c](G)

28 Regarding the gospel, they are enemies for your advantage,(H) but regarding election, they are loved because of the patriarchs,(I) 29 since God’s gracious gifts and calling(J) are irrevocable.[d](K) 30 As you once disobeyed God but now have received mercy through their disobedience, 31 so they too have now disobeyed, resulting in mercy to you, so that they also may now[e] receive mercy. 32 For God has imprisoned all in disobedience(L) so that he may have mercy on all.

25 For (A)I do not want you, brothers and sisters, to be uninformed of this (B)mystery—so that you will not be (C)wise in your own estimation—that a partial (D)hardening has happened to Israel until the (E)fullness of the Gentiles has come in; 26 and so all Israel will be saved; just as it is written:

(F)The Deliverer will come from Zion,
He will remove ungodliness from Jacob.”
27 (G)This is [a]My covenant with them,
(H)When I take away their sins.”

28 In relation to the gospel they are (I)enemies on your account, but in relation to God’s choice they are beloved (J)on account of the fathers; 29 for the gifts and the (K)calling of God (L)are irrevocable. 30 For just as you once were disobedient to God, but now have been shown mercy because of their disobedience, 31 so these also now have been disobedient, that because of the mercy shown to you they also may now be shown mercy. 32 For (M)God has shut up all in disobedience, so that He may show mercy to all.
