1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

<>God forbid, <>Abraham, <>Benjamin

2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,

<>God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew., <>Wot, <>Elias, <>Israel

3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.

<>digged down thine altars

4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.

<>to myself, <>have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal, <>image

5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

<>vv. 5-6, <>election, <>grace

6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

<>vv. 5-6, <>if by grace, then is it no more of works

7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded

<>vv. 7-8, <>hath not obtained that which he seeketh for, <>blinded

8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.

<>vv. 7-8, <>as it is written, <>it is written, <>God hath given them … eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear

9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:

<>their table be made a snare

10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.

<>bow down their back

11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.

<>vv. 11-12, <>stumbled, <>through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy, <>salvation

12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?

<>vv. 11-12

13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:

<>I am the apostle of the Gentiles, <>apostle, <>I magnify mine office

14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.

<>If … I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, <>If by any means I … might save some of them.

15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?

<>if, <>dead

16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.

<>firstfruit, <>if the root be holy, so are the branches, <>the branches

17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

<>if some of the branches be broken off, <>thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, <>olive tree … olive tree, <>tree … tree, <>fatness

18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

<>Boast not against the branches., <>Boast not … if thou boast, <>thou bearest not the root, but the root thee

19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.

<>vv. 19-21

20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:

<>vv. 19-21, <>vv. 20-21, <>because of unbelief they were broken off, <>thou standest by faith

21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.

<>vv. 19-21, <>vv. 20-21, <>if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee

22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

<>the goodness … of God … his goodness, <>severity of God, <>if thou continue in his goodness

23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.

<>they … if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in

24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?

25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

<>I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant, <>lest ye should be wise in your own conceits, <>conceits

26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

<>ungodliness, <>Jacob

27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

<>I shall take away their sins.

28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.

<>the gospel, <>they are enemies for your sakes, <>they are enemies

29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

<>v. 29

30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:

<>ye … have now obtained mercy

31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.

32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.

<>v. 32

33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

<>how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counseller?

<>who hath known the mind of the Lord?, <>who hath been his counseller?

35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?

<>v. 35

36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

<>of him … are all things, <>through him … are all things
