WPNT(i)
17 Now if some of the branches were broken off, while you, being a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among them, and with them have become a partaker of the root and the rich sap of the cultivated olive,
18 do not boast against those branches (since if you do boast—it’s not you who support the root but the root you).
19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.”
20 Granted. Because of unbelief they were broken off, but you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but fear!
21 Because if God did not spare the natural branches, perhaps He won’t spare you either!
22 So consider the kindness and severity of God: upon those who fell, severity; but toward you, kindness, if you continue in that kindness; otherwise you too will be cut off.
23 And even they, if they do not persist in the unbelief, will be grafted back in, because God has the power to graft them in again.
24 For if you were cut out of a wild by nature olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
