Romans 11:11-19 I ask, then, have they stumbled, that they may fall? By no means. But, through their fall, salvation is given to the Gentiles, to excite them to emulation.

Living_Oracles⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹¹ I ask, then, have they stumbled, that they may fall? By no means. But, through their fall, salvation is given to the Gentiles, to excite them to emulation. 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 fullness? ¹³ Now, I speak to you, Gentiles, (and inasmuch as I am the Apostle to the Gentiles, I do honor to my ministry,) ¹⁴ if by any means I may excite to emulation my kindred, and may save some of them. ¹⁵ For, if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world; what will the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? ¹⁶ Moreover, if the first fruit be holy, the mass is also holy; and if the root be holy, so are the branches. ¹⁷ Now, if some of the branches were broken off, and you who are a wild olive, are engrafted among them, and are become a joint partaker of the root and fatness of the olive; ¹⁸ boast not against the branches: but if you boast, still, you bear not the root, but the root you. ¹⁹ You will say, however, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
