Romans 11

1
I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.
2
God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew. Don't you know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah--how he appealed to God against Israel:
3
"Lord, they have killed your prophets and torn down your altars; I am the only one left, and they are trying to kill me" ?
4
And what was God's answer to him? "I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal."
5
So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace.
6
And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace.
7
What then? What Israel sought so earnestly it did not obtain, but the elect did. The others were hardened,
8
as it is written: "God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes so that they could not see and ears so that they could not hear, to this very day."
9
And David says: "May their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a retribution for them.
10
May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever."
11
Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious.
12
But if their transgression means riches for the world, and their loss means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their fullness bring!
13
I am talking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I make much of my ministry
14
in the hope that I may somehow arouse my own people to envy and save some of them.
15
For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?
16
If the part of the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, then the whole batch is holy; if the root is holy, so are the branches.
17
If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root,
18
do not boast over those branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you.
19
You will say then, "Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in."
20
Granted. But they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but be afraid.
21
For if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either.
22
Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off.
23
And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
24
After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!
25
I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.
26
And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The deliverer will come from Zion; he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.
27
And this is my covenant with them when I take away their sins."
28
As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies on your account; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs,
29
for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable.
30
Just as you who were at one time disobedient to God have now received mercy as a result of their disobedience,
31
so they too have now become disobedient in order that they too may now receive mercy as a result of God's mercy to you.
32
For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.
33
Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!
34
"Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?"
35
"Who has ever given to God, that God should repay him?"
36
For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen.


Romans 12

1
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship.
2
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.
3
For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.
4
Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function,
5
so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
6
We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith.
7
If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach;
8
if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.
9
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
10
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.
11
Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.
12
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
13
Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
14
Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
15
Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.
16
Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.
17
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody.
18
If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
19
Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.
20
On the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head."
21
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
