Romans 11:22

Verse 22 of 36. The 11th of 16 chapters in Romans, in The Letters of Paul.

18don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, remember that it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.

19You will say then, “Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.”

20True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Don’t be conceited, but fear;

21for if God didn’t spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.

22See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.

23They also, if they don’t continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

24For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

25For I don’t desire you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery, so that you won’t be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in,

26and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written, “There will come out of Zion the Deliverer, and he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
