Romans 11:25-32
New American Standard Bible
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.

God’s Mercy Is for Everyone
25 I want you to understand this mystery, dear brothers and sisters,[a] so that you will not feel proud about yourselves. Some of the people of Israel have hard hearts, but this will last only until the full number of Gentiles comes to Christ. 26 And so all Israel will be saved. As the Scriptures say,
“The one who rescues will come from Jerusalem,[b]
and he will turn Israel[c] away from ungodliness.
27 And this is my covenant with them,
that I will take away their sins.”[d]
28 Many of the people of Israel are now enemies of the Good News, and this benefits you Gentiles. Yet they are still the people he loves because he chose their ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 29 For God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn. 30 Once, you Gentiles were rebels against God, but when the people of Israel rebelled against him, God was merciful to you instead. 31 Now they are the rebels, and God’s mercy has come to you so that they, too, will share[e] in God’s mercy. 32 For God has imprisoned everyone in disobedience so he could have mercy on everyone.
