Romans 11:11-19 Say I then, Have they stumbled, that they should fall irrecoverably? God forbid! but this I say, that by their fall salvation is come to the Gentiles to excite them to emulation.

God forbid! but this I say, that by their fall salvation is come to the Gentiles to excite them to emulation. ¹² Now if their fall be the riches of the world, and their diminution be the riches of the Gentiles, how much more will their fulness be? ¹³ For I speak to you Gentiles: inasmuch indeed as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, ¹⁴ I extol my office, that if possible I may excite to emulation my brethren according to the flesh, and may save some of them: ¹⁵ for if the rejecting of them be the reconciling of the world, what will the receiving them again be but life from the dead? ¹⁶ Now if the first-fruits be holy, so is the whole heap: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. ¹⁷ But if some of the branches were broken off, and thou a wild-olive wert grafted in among them, and art made a partaker together with them of the root and fatness of the olive; boast not against the branches: ¹⁸ and if thou boastest, remember thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. ¹⁹ Wilt thou say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in?
