Romans 11

1 I say then, Hath God cast (Matthew 10:6; Matthew 15:24; Acts 3:26; Acts 13:46) away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.KJRV — Romans 11:1

2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel saying,KJRV — Romans 11:2

3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.1 Kings 19:10 1st Kings 19:101 Kings 19:10, 1st Kings 19:141 Kings 19:14KJRV — Romans 11:3

4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.1 Kings 19:18 1st Kings 19:181 Kings 19:18KJRV — Romans 11:4

5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.KJRV — Romans 11:5

6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.KJRV — Romans 11:6

7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.KJRV — Romans 11:7

8 (According as it is written, God hath given (Isaiah 29:10) them the spirit of slumber, Isaiah 29:10 eyes (Isaiah 6:9; Ezekiel 12:2; Matthew 13:14; Luke 8:10; John 12:40; Acts 28:26) that they should not see, and ears that they should not hearIsaiah 29:10;) unto this day.KJRV — Romans 11:8

9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:Psalms 69:22 Psa 69:22Psalms 69:22KJRV — Romans 11:9

10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.Psalms 69:23 Psa 69:23Psalms 69:23KJRV — Romans 11:10

11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.KJRV — Romans 11:11

12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?KJRV — Romans 11:12

13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:KJRV — Romans 11:13

14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.KJRV — Romans 11:14

15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?KJRV — Romans 11:15

16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.KJRV — Romans 11:16

17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;KJRV — Romans 11:17

18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.KJRV — Romans 11:18

19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.KJRV — Romans 11:19

20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:KJRV — Romans 11:20

21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.KJRV — Romans 11:21

22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.KJRV — Romans 11:22

23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.KJRV — Romans 11:23

24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?KJRV — Romans 11:24

25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.KJRV — Romans 11:25

26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:Isaiah 59:20 Isa 59:20Isaiah 59:20KJRV — Romans 11:26

27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.Isaiah 59:21 Isa 59:21Isaiah 59:21KJRV — Romans 11:27

28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the father's sakes.KJRV — Romans 11:28

29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.KJRV — Romans 11:29

30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:KJRV — Romans 11:30

31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.KJRV — Romans 11:31

32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.KJRV — Romans 11:32

33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!KJRV — Romans 11:33

34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?Isaiah 40:13 Isa 40:13Isaiah 40:13KJRV — Romans 11:34

35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? Job 41:11Job 41:11KJRV — Romans 11:35

36 For of him, (Acts 17:28; 1 Corinthians 8:6) and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.KJRV — Romans 11:36
