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.

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.[a] 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.”[b]

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. 30 For just as you disobeyed God in the past but now have received his mercy because of their disobedience, 31 so they, too, have now disobeyed. As a result, they may[c] receive mercy because of the mercy shown to you. 32 For God has locked all people in the prison of their own disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.
