    3For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

    4Who are Israelites; to whom belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises;

    5Of whom are the fathers and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen.

    6Not as though the word of God has failed. For they are not all Israel who are of Israel:

    7Neither, because they are Abraham's descendants, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall your descendants be called.

    8That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted as descendants.

    11I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.

    12Now if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness?

    13For I speak to you Gentiles; inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry,

    14if by any means I may provoke to emulation those who are my flesh and save some of them.

    15For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?

    19You will say then, The branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.

    20Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear.

    21For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.

    22Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

    23And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

    24For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

    25For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.

    26And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: The Deliverer will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

    27For this is My covenant with them, when I take away their sins.
