< Romans 11 >
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.
I ask then; not did reject God the people of Him? Never would it be! Also for I myself an Israelite am, of [the] seed of Abraham, of [the] tribe of Benjamin.
2 God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew. Or do not you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:
Not did reject God the people of Him whom He foreknew. Or not know you in Elijah what says the Scripture, how he pleads with God against Israel (saying *k*)
3 “Lord, they have killed your prophets. They have broken down your altars. I am left alone, and they seek my life.”
Lord, the prophets of You they have killed, (and *k*) the altars of You they have torn down, and I myself and I myself were left alone, and they are seeking the life of me.
4 But how does God answer him? “I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”
But what [was] spoken to him the divine answer? I have left to Myself seven thousand men who 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.
Thus then also in the present time a remnant according to [the] election of grace there has been.
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.
If now by grace no longer no longer from works, otherwise grace no longer no longer would be grace (if *KO*) (now from works no longer no longer is grace since the work no longer no longer is work. *K*)
7 What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he did not obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.
What then? What is seeking Israel, (this *N(k)O*) not it has obtained, but the elect obtained [it]; The now 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.”
(even as *NK(o)*) it has been written: Gave to them God a spirit of stupor, eyes not to see and ears not to hear unto the today day.
9 David says, “Let their table be made a snare, a trap, a stumbling block, and a retribution to them.
And David says: should be the table of them for a snare and for a trap and for a stumbling block and for a retribution to them;
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see. Always keep their backs bent.”
should be darkened the eyes of them not to see, and the backs of them (for *N(K)O*) (all [times] *N(k)O*) do bend over.
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.
I say then, surely not they did stumble so that they may fall? Never would it be! But in the of them trespass [is] salvation to the Gentiles so as to provoke to jealousy them.
12 Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles, how much more their fullness!
If however the trespass of them [is] riches of [the] world and the failure of them [is the] riches of [the] Gentiles, how much more the fullness of them?
13 For I speak to you who are Gentiles. Since then as I am an apostle to Gentiles, I glorify my ministry,
To you (now *N(k)O*) I am speaking Gentiles; Upon as much as indeed (therefore *NO*) am I myself of [the] Gentiles apostle, the ministry of mine I magnify,
14 if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and may save some of them.
if at all I will provoke to jealousy of me the flesh and will 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?
If for the rejection of them [is the] reconciliation of [the] world, what [will be] the acceptance only except life out from [the] dead?
16 If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump. If the root is holy, so are the branches.
If now the firstfruit [is] holy, also the lump; and if the root [is] holy, also 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,
If however some of the branches were broken off, you yourself now a wild olive tree being you were grafted in among them and a fellow-partaker of the root (and *ko*) of the fatness of the olive tree you have become,
18 do not boast over the branches. But if you boast, remember that it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.
not do boast over the branches; If now you boast against [them], not you yourself the root support but the root you.
19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.”
You will say then; Were broken off (*k*) branches that I myself may be grafted in.
20 True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Do not be conceited, but fear;
Rightly so; by the unbelief they were broken off, you yourself however by faith have stood. Not high do be minded but do be afraid;
21 for if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.
If for God the according to nature branches not spared, surely (perhaps *NK*) neither you (will He spare. *N(k)O*)
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.
Behold therefore [the] kindness and severity of God; upon indeed those having fallen (severity, *N(k)O*) toward however you (kindness *N(k)O*) (of God, *NO*) if (you shall continue in *NK(O)*) the kindness; otherwise also you yourself will be cut off.
23 They also, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
And they And they now only unless (they shall continue *N(k)O*) in unbelief, [then] they will be grafted in; able for is God again to graft in them;
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?
If for you yourself out of the according to nature were cut off a wild olive tree and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more these who according to nature [are] will be grafted into their own olive tree?
25 For I do not desire you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery, so that you will not be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in,
Not for I want you to be ignorant, brothers, of the mystery this, that not you may be (beside *NK(o)*) yourselves wise, that a hardening in part to Israel has happened until that the fullness of the Gentiles may 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.
and so all Israel will be saved even as it has been written: Will come out of Zion the [One] Delivering, (and *k*) He will remove ungodliness from Jacob;
27 This is my covenant with them, when I will take away their sins.”
And this [is] to them the from Me covenant, when I may take away the sins of them.
28 Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sake.
As regards indeed the gospel [they are] enemies on account of you As regards however the election beloved on account of the patriarchs;
29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
Irrevocable for [are] the gifts and the calling of God.
30 For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
Just as for (and *k*) you yourselves once were disobedient to God now however were shown mercy to them through their disobedience,
31 even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy.
so also these now were disobedient to your mercy so that also they themselves (now *NO*) may have mercy shown [them].
32 For God has bound all to disobedience, in order to have mercy (eleēsē ) on all.
Has bound up for God all in disobedience that all He may show mercy to. (eleēsē )
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!
O [the] depth of riches both of wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable the judgments of Him and untraceable the ways of Him!
34 “For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?”
Who for has known [the] mind of [the] Lord? or who counselor of Him has been?
35 “Or who has first given to him, and it will be repaid to him again?”
Or who has first given to Him, and it will be recompensed to him?
36 For of him, and through him, and to him are all things. To him be the glory for the ages (aiōn )! Amen.
For from Him and through Him and unto Him [are] all things; To Him [be] the glory to the ages! Amen. (aiōn )
