11 I say, then, have they stumbled just in order that they may fall? Never. But by their fall salvation comes to the Gentiles so as to arouse the emulation of the Jews.
12 If their fall is the riches of the world and their loss the riches of the Gentiles, how much more will their full restoration be!
13 But I say to you Gentiles — since I am an apostle to Gentiles I glory in my office,
14 if in any way I may arouse to emulation my own kindred and save some of them —
15 if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their welcome back be but life from the dead?
16 If the first fruit was holy, so will the mass be; and if the root was holy, so will be the branches.
17 If some of the branches were broken off and you, who are a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became a sharer in the root and rich sap of the olive,
18 do not exult over the branches. Even though you exult, it is not you who are supporting the root, but the root is supporting you.
19 You will say then, "Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in."
