12 But if their stumbling has resulted in the enrichment of the world, and their overthrow becomes the enrichment of heathen peoples, how much richer the result will be when the full quota of Jews comes in!
13 Yes, I now am speaking to you who are a part of the heathen peoples. As I am an apostle to the heathen peoples, I am making the most of my ministry to them, to see
14 if I can make my fellow-countrymen jealous, and so save some of them.
15 For if the rejection of them has resulted in the reconciling of the world, what will the result be of the final reception of them but life from the dead?
16 If the first handful of dough is consecrated, so is the whole mass; if the tree's root is consecrated, so are the branches.
17 If some of the branches have been broken off, and yet you, although you were wild olive suckers, have been grafted in among the native branches, and been made to share the rich sap of the native olive's root,
18 you must not be boasting against the natural branches. And if you do, just consider, you do not support the root, but the root supports you.
19 Then you will say, "Branches have been broken off for us to be grafted in."
20 Very well, but it was for lack of faith that they were broken off, and it is through your faith that you now stand where you are. Stop your haughty thinking, rather continue to be reverent,
21 for if God did not spare the natural branches, certainly He will not spare you.
22 So take a look at the goodness and the severity of God; severity to those who have fallen, but goodness to you, on condition that you continue to live by His goodness; otherwise, you too will be pruned away.
