Romans 11 (WEBP)

[1] I ask then, did God reject his people? May it never be! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
[2] God didn’t reject his people, whom he foreknew. Or don’t you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:
[3] “Lord, they have killed your prophets. They have broken down your altars. I am left alone, and they seek my life.”
[4] But how does God answer him? “I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”
[5] Even so too at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
[6] And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
[7] What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn’t obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.
[8] According as it is written, “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day.”
[9] David says, “Let their table be made a snare, a trap, a stumbling block, and a retribution to them.
[10] Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see. Always keep their backs bent.”
[11] I ask then, did they stumble that they might fall? May it never be! But by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
[12] Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles, how much more their fullness!
[13] For I speak to you who are Gentiles. Since then as I am an apostle to Gentiles, I glorify my ministry,
[14] if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and may save some of them.
[15] For if the rejection of them is the reconciling of the world, what would their acceptance be, but life from the dead?
[16] If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump. If the root is holy, so are the branches.
[17] But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree,
[18] don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, remember that it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.
[19] You will say then, “Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.”
[20] True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Don’t be conceited, but fear;
[21] for if God didn’t spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.
[22] See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
[23] They also, if they don’t continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
[24] For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
[25] For I don’t desire you to be ignorant, brothers,§ of this mystery, so that you won’t be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in,
[26] and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written, “There will come out of Zion the Deliverer, and he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
[27] This is my covenant with them, when I will take away their sins.”
[28] Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sake.
[29] For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
[30] For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
[31] even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy.
[32] For God has bound all to disobedience, that he might have mercy on all.
[33] Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!
[34] “For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?”
[35] “Or who has first given to him, and it will be repaid to him again?”
[36] For of him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory for ever! Amen.

Romans 11 (KJVS)

[1] I say G3004 (PresActInd) then G3767, G3361 Hath G683 God G2316 cast away G683 (AorMidDepInd) his G846 people G2992? God forbid G3361 G1096 (Aor2MidDepOpt). For G1063 I G1473 also G2532 am G1510 (PresInd) an Israelite G2475, of G1537 the seed G4690 of Abraham G11, [of] the tribe G5443 of Benjamin G958.
[2] God G2316 hath G683 not G3756 cast away G683 (AorMidDepInd) his G846 people G2992 which G3739 he foreknew G4267 (AorActInd). G2228 Wot ye G1492 (PerfActInd) not G3756 what G5101 the scripture G1124 saith G3004 (PresActInd) of G1722 Elias G2243? how G5613 he maketh intercession G1793 (PresActInd) to God G2316 against G2596 Israel G2474, saying G3004 (PresActPtc),
[3] Lord G2962, they have killed G615 (AorActInd) thy G4675 prophets G4396, and G2532 digged down G2679 (AorActInd) thine G4675 altars G2379; and I G2504 am left G5275 (AorPasInd) alone G3441, and G2532 they seek G2212 (PresActInd) my G3450 life G5590.
[4] But G235 what G5101 saith G3004 (PresActInd) the answer of God G5538 unto him G846? I have reserved G2641 (Aor2ActInd) to myself G1683 seven thousand G2035 men G435, who G3748 have G2578 not G3756 bowed G2578 (AorActInd) the knee G1119 to [the image of] Baal G896.
[5] Even so G3779 then G3767 at G1722 this present G3568 time G2540 also G2532 there is G1096 (Perf2ActInd) a remnant G3005 according G2596 to the election G1589 of grace G5485.
[6] And G1161 if G1487 by grace G5485, then [is it] no more G2089 G3765 of G1537 works G2041: otherwise G1893 grace G5485 is G1096 (PresMidPasDepInd) no more G2089 G3765 grace G5485. But G1161 if G1487 [it be] of G1537 works G2041, then is it G2076 (PresInd) no more G2089 G3765 grace G5485: otherwise G1893 work G2041 is G2076 (PresInd) no more G2089 G3765 work G2041.
[7] What G5101 then G3767? Israel G2474 hath G2013 not G3756 obtained G2013 (Aor2ActInd) that G5127 which G3739 he seeketh for G1934 (PresActInd); but G1161 the election G1589 hath obtained it G2013 (Aor2ActInd), and G1161 the rest G3062 were blinded G4456 (AorPasInd)
[8] (According as G2531 it is written G1125 (PerfPasInd), God G2316 hath given G1325 (AorActInd) them G846 the spirit G4151 of slumber G2659, eyes G3788 that they should G991 not G3361 see G991 (PresActInf), and G2532 ears G3775 that they should G191 not G3361 hear G191 (PresActInf);) unto G2193 this G4594 day G2250.
[9] And G2532 David G1138 saith G3004 (PresActInd), Let G1096 their G846 table G5132 be made G1096 (AorPasDepImpr) a snare G1519 G3803, and G2532 a trap G1519 G2339, and G2532 a stumblingblock G1519 G4625, and G2532 a recompence G1519 G468 unto them G846:
[10] Let G4654 their G846 eyes G3788 be darkened G4654 (AorPasImpr), that they may G991 not G3361 see G991 (PresActInf), and G2532 bow down G4781 (AorActImpr) their G846 back G3577 alway G1275.
[11] I say G3004 (PresActInd) then G3767, G3361 Have they stumbled G4417 (AorActInd) that G2443 they should fall G4098 (Aor2ActSubj)? God forbid G3361 G1096 (Aor2MidDepOpt): but G235 [rather] through their G846 fall G3900 salvation G4991 [is come] unto the Gentiles G1484, for to G1519 provoke G3863 them G846 to jealousy G3863 (AorActInf).
[12] Now G1161 if G1487 the fall G3900 of them G846 [be] the riches G4149 of the world G2889, and G2532 the diminishing G2275 of them G846 the riches G4149 of the Gentiles G1484; how G4214 much more G3123 their G846 fulness G4138?
[13] For G1063 I speak G3004 (PresActInd) to you G5213 Gentiles G1484, inasmuch as G1909 G3745 G3303 I G1473 am G1510 (PresInd) the apostle G652 of the Gentiles G1484, I magnify G1392 (PresActInd) mine G3450 office G1248:
[14] If by any means G1513 G4458 I may provoke to emulation G3863 (AorActSubj) [them which are] my G3450 flesh G4561, and G2532 might save G4982 (AorActSubj) some G5100 of G1537 them G846.
[15] For G1063 if G1487 the casting away G580 of them G846 [be] the reconciling G2643 of the world G2889, what G5101 [shall] the receiving G4356 [of them be], but G1508 life G2222 from G1537 the dead G3498?
[16] For G1161 if G1487 the firstfruit G536 [be] holy G40, the lump G5445 [is] also G2532 [holy]: and G2532 if G1487 the root G4491 [be] holy G40, so G2532 [are] the branches G2798.
[17] And G1161 if some G1536 of the branches G2798 be broken off G1575 (AorPasInd), and G1161 thou G4771, being G5607 (PresPtc) a wild olive tree G65, wert graffed in G1461 (AorPasInd) among G1722 them G846, and G2532 with G4791 them G1096 (Aor2MidDepInd) partakest G4791 of the root G4491 and G2532 fatness G4096 of the olive tree G1636;
[18] Boast G2620 not G3361 against G2620 (PresMidPasDepImpr) the branches G2798. But G1161 if G1487 thou boast G2620 (PresMidPasDepInd), thou G4771 bearest G941 (PresActInd) not G3756 the root G4491, but G235 the root G4491 thee G4571.
[19] Thou wilt say G2046 (FutActInd) then G3767, The branches G2798 were broken off G1575 (AorPasInd), that G2443 I G1473 might be graffed in G1461 (AorPasSubj).
[20] Well G2573; because of unbelief G570 they were broken off G1575 (AorPasInd), and G1161 thou G4771 standest G2476 (PerfActInd) by faith G4102. Be G5309 not G3361 highminded G5309 (PresActImpr), but G235 fear G5399 (PresMidPasDepImpr):
[21] For G1063 if G1487 God G2316 spared G5339 (AorMidDepInd) not G3756 the natural G5449 branches G2798 G2596, [take heed] lest G4458 G3381 he G5339 also G3381 spare G5339 (AorMidDepSubj) not G3761 thee G4675.
[22] Behold G1492 (AorActImpr) therefore G3767 the goodness G5544 and G2532 severity G663 of God G2316: on G1909 them which fell G4098 (Aor2ActPtc) G3303, severity G663; but G1161 toward G1909 thee G4571, goodness G5544, if G1437 thou continue G1961 (AorActSubj) in [his] goodness G5544: otherwise G1893 thou G4771 also G2532 shalt be cut off G1581 (Fut2PasInd).
[23] And G1161 they G1565 also G2532, if G3362 they abide G1961 (AorActSubj) not G3362 still in unbelief G570, shall be graffed in G1461 (FutPasInd): for G1063 God G2316 is G2076 (PresInd) able G1415 to graff G1461 them G846 in G1461 (AorActInf) again G3825.
[24] For G1063 if G1487 thou G4771 wert cut G1581 (Aor2PasDepSubj) out of G1537 the olive tree which is wild G65 by G2596 nature G5449, and G2532 wert graffed G1461 (AorPasInd) contrary to G3844 nature G5449 into G1519 a good olive tree G2565: how much G4214 more G3123 shall these G3778, which be the natural G2596 G5449 [branches], be graffed into G1461 (FutPasInd) their own G2398 olive tree G1636?
[25] For G1063 I would G2309 (PresActInd) not G3756, brethren G80, that ye G5209 should be ignorant G50 (PresActInf) of this G5124 mystery G3466, lest G3363 ye should be G5600 (PresSubj) wise G5429 in G3844 your own conceits G1438; that G3754 blindness G4457 in G575 part G3313 is happened G1096 (Perf2ActInd) to Israel G2474, until G891 G3739 the fulness G4138 of the Gentiles G1484 be come in G1525 (Aor2ActSubj).
[26] And G2532 so G3779 all G3956 Israel G2474 shall be saved G4982 (FutPasInd): as G2531 it is written G1125 (PerfPasInd), There shall come G2240 (FutActInd) out of G1537 Sion G4622 the Deliverer G4506 (PresMidPasDepPtc), and G2532 shall turn away G654 (FutActInd) ungodliness G763 from G575 Jacob G2384:
[27] For G2532 this G3778 [is] my G3844 G1700 covenant G1242 unto them G846, when G3752 I shall take away G851 (Aor2MidSubj) their G846 sins G266.
[28] As concerning G2596 G3303 the gospel G2098, [they are] enemies G2190 for your sakes G1223 G5209: but G1161 as touching G2596 the election G1589, [they are] beloved G27 for G1223 the fathers G3962’ sakes G1223.
[29] For G1063 the gifts G5486 and G2532 calling G2821 of God G2316 [are] without repentance G278.
[30] For G1063 as G5618 G2532 ye G5210 in times past G4218 have not believed G544 (AorActInd) God G2316, yet G1161 have G1653 now G3568 obtained mercy G1653 (AorPasInd) through G5130 their unbelief G543:
[31] Even so G3779 have G544 these G3778 also G2532 now G3568 not believed G544 (AorActInd), that G2443 through your G5212 mercy G1656 they G846 also G2532 may obtain mercy G1653 (AorPasSubj).
[32] For G1063 God G2316 hath concluded G4788 (AorActInd) them all G3956 in G1519 unbelief G543, that G2443 he might have mercy G1653 (AorActSubj) upon all G3956.
[33] O G5599 the depth G899 of the riches G4149 both G2532 of the wisdom G4678 and G2532 knowledge G1108 of God G2316! how G5613 unsearchable G419 [are] his G846 judgments G2917, and G2532 his G846 ways G3598 past finding out G421!
[34] For G1063 who G5101 hath known G1097 (Aor2ActInd) the mind G3563 of the Lord G2962? or G2228 who G5101 hath been G1096 (Aor2MidDepInd) his G846 counsellor G4825?
[35] Or G2228 who G5101 hath first given G4272 (AorActInd) to him G846, and G2532 it shall be recompensed G467 unto him G846 again G467 (FutPasInd)?
[36] For G3754 of G1537 him G846, and G2532 through G1223 him G846, and G2532 to G1519 him G846, [are] all things G3956: to whom G846 [be] glory G1391 for G1519 ever G165. Amen G281.

Young’s Literal Translation

Romans 11 (YLT)

[1] I say, then, Did God cast away His people? let it not be! for I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin:
[2] God did not cast away His people whom He knew before; have ye not known-in Elijah-what the Writing saith? how he doth plead with God concerning Israel, saying,
[3] ‘Lord, Thy prophets they did kill, and Thy altars they dug down, and I was left alone, and they seek my life;’
[4] but what saith the divine answer to him? ‘I left to Myself seven thousand men, who did not bow a knee to Baal.’
[5] So then also in the present time a remnant according to the choice of grace there hath been;
[6] and if by grace, no more of works, otherwise the grace becometh no more grace; and if of works, it is no more grace, otherwise the work is no more work.
[7] What then? What Israel doth seek after, this it did not obtain, and the chosen did obtain, and the rest were hardened,
[8] according as it hath been written, ‘God gave to them a spirit of deep sleep, eyes not to see, and ears not to hear,’-unto this very day,
[9] and David saith, ‘Let their table become for a snare, and for a trap, and for a stumbling-block, and for a recompense to them;
[10] let their eyes be darkened-not to behold, and their back do Thou always bow down.’
[11] I say, then, Did they stumble that they might fall? let it not be! but by their fall the salvation is to the nations, to arouse them to jealousy;
[12] and if the fall of them is the riches of a world, and the diminution of them the riches of nations, how much more the fulness of them?
[13] For to you I speak-to the nations-inasmuch as I am indeed an apostle of nations, my ministration I do glorify;
[14] if by any means I shall arouse to jealousy mine own flesh, and shall save some of them,
[15] for if the casting away of them is a reconciliation of the world, what the reception-if not life out of the dead?
[16] and if the first-fruit is holy, the lump also; and if the root is holy, the branches also.
[17] And if certain of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wast graffed in among them, and a fellow-partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree didst become-
[18] do not boast against the branches; and if thou dost boast, thou dost not bear the root, but the root thee!
[19] Thou wilt say, then, ‘The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in;’ right!
[20] by unbelief they were broken off, and thou hast stood by faith; be not high-minded, but be fearing;
[21] for if God the natural branches did not spare-lest perhaps He also shall not spare thee.
[22] Lo, then, goodness and severity of God-upon those indeed who fell, severity; and upon thee, goodness, if thou mayest remain in the goodness, otherwise, thou also shalt be cut off.
[23] And those also, if they may not remain in unbelief, shall be graffed in, for God is able again to graff them in;
[24] for if thou, out of the olive tree, wild by nature, wast cut out, and, contrary to nature, wast graffed into a good olive tree, how much rather shall they, who are according to nature, be graffed into their own olive tree?
[25] For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, of this secret-that ye may not be wise in your own conceits-that hardness in part to Israel hath happened till the fulness of the nations may come in;
[26] and so all Israel shall be saved, according as it hath been written, ‘There shall come forth out of Sion he who is delivering, and he shall turn away impiety from Jacob,
[27] and this to them is the covenant from Me, when I may take away their sins.’
[28] As regards, indeed, the good tidings, they are enemies on your account; and as regards the choice-beloved on account of the fathers;
[29] for unrepented of are the gifts and the calling of God;
[30] for as ye also once did not believe in God, and now did find kindness by the unbelief of these:
[31] so also these now did not believe, that in your kindness they also may find kindness;
[32] for God did shut up together the whole to unbelief, that to the whole He might do kindness.
[33] O depth of riches, and wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable His judgments, and untraceable His ways!
[34] for who did know the mind of the Lord? or who did become His counsellor?
[35] or who did first give to Him, and it shall be given back to him again?
[36] because of Him, and through Him, and to Him are the all things; to Him is the glory-to the ages. Amen.
