Romans 11:24–36

²⁴For if you were cut off from your native wild olive and against nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these—the natural branches—be grafted into their own olive tree?

²⁵So that you will not be conceited, ^ebrothers, I do not want you to be unaware ^fof this mystery: ^gA partial hardening has come to Israel ^huntil the full number of the Gentiles has come in. ⁱ²⁶And in this way all ^jIsrael will be saved, as it is written:

The Liberator will come from Zion;

He will turn away godlessness from Jacob.

²⁷And this will be My covenant with them ^kl

when I take away their sins. ^mn

²⁸Regarding the gospel, they are enemies for your advantage, ^obut regarding election, they are loved because of the patriarchs, ^p29since God’s gracious gifts and calling ^qare irrevocable. ^rs30As you once disobeyed God, but now have received mercy through their disobedience, ³¹so they too have now disobeyed, resulting in mercy to you, so that they also now ^tmay receive mercy. ³²For God has imprisoned all in disobedience, ^uso that He may have mercy on all.

A Hymn of Praise

³³Oh, the depth of the riches ^v

both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! ^w

How unsearchable His judgments ^x

and untraceable His ways!

³⁴For who has known the mind of the Lord? ^y

Or who has been His counselor?

³⁵Or who has ever first given to Him,

and has to be repaid? ^za

³⁶For from Him and through Him

and to Him are all things. ^b

To Him be the glory forever. Amen.
