Romans 11
1 I say then, did God cast away His people? Let it not be! For I am also an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin:
IshvareNa svIkIyalokA apasAritA ahaM kim IdR^ishaM vAkyaM bravImi? tanna bhavatu yato. ahamapi binyAmInagotrIya ibrAhImavaMshIya isrAyelIyaloko. asmi|
2 God did not cast away His people whom He knew before; have you not known—in Elijah—what the Writing says? How he pleads with God concerning Israel, saying,
IshvareNa pUrvvaM ye pradR^iShTAste svakIyalokA apasAritA iti nahi| aparam eliyopAkhyAne shAstre yallikhitam Aste tad yUyaM kiM na jAnItha?
3 “LORD, they killed Your prophets, and they dug down Your altars, and I was left alone, and they seek my life”;
he parameshvara lokAstvadIyAH sarvvA yaj navedIrabha njan tathA tava bhaviShyadvAdinaH sarvvAn aghnan kevala eko. aham avashiShTa Ase te mamApi prANAn nAshayituM cheShTanate, etAM kathAm isrAyelIyalokAnAM viruddham eliya IshvarAya nivedayAmAsa|
4 but what does the divine answer say to him? “I left to Myself seven thousand men who did not bow a knee to Ba‘al.”
tatastaM pratIshvarasyottaraM kiM jAtaM? bAlnAmno devasya sAkShAt yai rjAnUni na pAtitAni tAdR^ishAH sapta sahasrANi lokA avasheShitA mayA|
5 So then also in the present time there has been a remnant according to the [divine] selection of grace;
tadvad etasmin varttamAnakAle. api anugraheNAbhiruchitAsteShAm avashiShTAH katipayA lokAH santi|
6 and if by grace, no longer of works, otherwise grace becomes no longer grace; and if of works, it is no longer grace, otherwise work is no longer work.
ataeva tad yadyanugraheNa bhavati tarhi kriyayA na bhavati no ched anugraho. ananugraha eva, yadi vA kriyayA bhavati tarhyanugraheNa na bhavati no chet kriyA kriyaiva na bhavati|
7 What then? What Israel seeks after, this it did not obtain, and the chosen obtained, and the rest were hardened,
tarhi kiM? isrAyelIyalokA yad amR^igayanta tanna prApuH| kintvabhiruchitalokAstat prApustadanye sarvva andhIbhUtAH|
8 according as it has been written: “God gave to them a spirit of deep sleep, eyes not to see, and ears not to hear, to this very day,”
yathA likhitam Aste, ghoranidrAlutAbhAvaM dR^iShTihIne cha lochane| karNau shrutivihInau cha pradadau tebhya IshvaraH||
9 and David says, “Let their table become for a snare, and for a trap, and for a stumbling-block, and for a repayment to them;
etesmin dAyUdapi likhitavAn yathA, ato bhuktyAsanaM teShAm unmAthavad bhaviShyati| vA vaMshayantravad bAdhA daNDavad vA bhaviShyati||
10 let their eyes be darkened—not to behold, and You always bow down their back.”
bhaviShyanti tathAndhAste netraiH pashyanti no yathA| vepathuH kaTideshasya teShAM nityaM bhaviShyati||
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;
patanArthaM te skhalitavanta iti vAchaM kimahaM vadAmi? tanna bhavatu kintu tAn udyoginaH karttuM teShAM patanAd itaradeshIyalokaiH paritrANaM prAptaM|
12 and if their fall [is] the riches of [the] world, and their diminishment the riches of nations, how much more their fullness?
teShAM patanaM yadi jagato lokAnAM lAbhajanakam abhavat teShAM hrAso. api yadi bhinnadeshinAM lAbhajanako. abhavat tarhi teShAM vR^iddhiH kati lAbhajanikA bhaviShyati?
13 For to you I speak—to the nations—inasmuch as I am indeed an apostle of nations, I glorify my ministry;
ato he anyadeshino yuShmAn sambodhya kathayAmi nijAnAM j nAtibandhUnAM manaHsUdyogaM janayan teShAM madhye kiyatAM lokAnAM yathA paritrANaM sAdhayAmi
14 if I will arouse my own flesh to jealousy by any means, and will save some of them,
tannimittam anyadeshinAM nikaTe preritaH san ahaM svapadasya mahimAnaM prakAshayAmi|
15 for if the casting away of them [is] a reconciliation of the world, what the reception—if not life out of the dead?
teShAM nigraheNa yadIshvareNa saha jagato janAnAM melanaM jAtaM tarhi teShAm anugR^ihItatvaM mR^itadehe yathA jIvanalAbhastadvat kiM na bhaviShyati?
16 And if the first-fruit [is] holy, the lump also; and if the root [is] holy, the branches also.
aparaM prathamajAtaM phalaM yadi pavitraM bhavati tarhi sarvvameva phalaM pavitraM bhaviShyati; tathA mUlaM yadi pavitraM bhavati tarhi shAkhA api tathaiva bhaviShyanti|
17 And if certain of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and became a fellow-partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree—
kiyatInAM shAkhAnAM Chedane kR^ite tvaM vanyajitavR^ikShasya shAkhA bhUtvA yadi tachChAkhAnAM sthAne ropitA sati jitavR^ikShIyamUlasya rasaM bhuMkShe,
18 do not boast against the branches; and if you boast, you do not bear the root, but the root you!
tarhi tAsAM bhinnashAkhAnAM viruddhaM mAM garvvIH; yadi garvvasi tarhi tvaM mUlaM yanna dhArayasi kintu mUlaM tvAM dhArayatIti saMsmara|
19 You will say, then, “The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in”; right!
apara ncha yadi vadasi mAM ropayituM tAH shAkhA vibhannA abhavan;
20 By unbelief they were broken off, and you have stood by faith; do not be high-minded, but be fearing;
bhadram, apratyayakAraNAt te vibhinnA jAtAstathA vishvAsakAraNAt tvaM ropito jAtastasmAd aha NkAram akR^itvA sasAdhvaso bhava|
21 for if God did not spare the natural branches—lest perhaps He also will not spare you.
yata Ishvaro yadi svAbhAvikIH shAkhA na rakShati tarhi sAvadhAno bhava chet tvAmapi na sthApayati|
22 Behold, then, goodness and severity of God—on those indeed who fell, severity; and on you, goodness, if you may remain in the goodness, otherwise, you also will be cut off.
ityatreshvarasya yAdR^ishI kR^ipA tAdR^ishaM bhayAnakatvamapi tvayA dR^ishyatAM; ye patitAstAn prati tasya bhayAnakatvaM dR^ishyatAM, tva ncha yadi tatkR^ipAshritastiShThasi tarhi tvAM prati kR^ipA drakShyate; no chet tvamapi tadvat Chinno bhaviShyasi|
23 And those also, if they may not remain in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again;
apara ncha te yadyapratyaye na tiShThanti tarhi punarapi ropayiShyante yasmAt tAn punarapi ropayitum ishvarasya shaktirAste|
24 for if you, out of the olive tree, wild by nature, were cut out, and contrary to nature, were grafted into a good olive tree, how much rather will they, who [are] according to nature, be grafted into their own olive tree?
vanyajitavR^ikShasya shAkhA san tvaM yadi tatashChinno rItivyatyayenottamajitavR^ikShe ropito. abhavastarhi tasya vR^ikShasya svIyA yAH shAkhAstAH kiM punaH svavR^ikShe saMlagituM na shaknuvanti?
25 For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, of this secret—that you may not be wise in your own conceits—that hardness in part to Israel has happened until the fullness of the nations may come in;
he bhrAtaro yuShmAkam AtmAbhimAno yanna jAyate tadarthaM mamedR^ishI vA nChA bhavati yUyaM etannigUDhatattvam ajAnanto yanna tiShThatha; vastuto yAvatkAlaM sampUrNarUpeNa bhinnadeshinAM saMgraho na bhaviShyati tAvatkAlam aMshatvena isrAyelIyalokAnAm andhatA sthAsyati;
26 and so all Israel will be saved, according as it has been written: “There will come forth out of Zion He who is delivering, and He will turn away impiety from Jacob,
pashchAt te sarvve paritrAsyante; etAdR^ishaM likhitamapyAste, AgamiShyati sIyonAd eko yastrANadAyakaH| adharmmaM yAkubo vaMshAt sa tu dUrIkariShyati|
27 and this to them [is] the covenant from Me when I may take away their sins.”
tathA dUrIkariShyAmi teShAM pApAnyahaM yadA| tadA taireva sArddhaM me niyamo. ayaM bhaviShyati|
28 As regards, indeed, the good tidings, [they are] enemies on your account; and as regards the [divine] selection—beloved on account of the fathers;
susaMvAdAt te yuShmAkaM vipakShA abhavan kintvabhiruchitatvAt te pitR^ilokAnAM kR^ite priyapAtrANi bhavanti|
29 for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable;
yata Ishvarasya dAnAd AhvAnA ncha pashchAttApo na bhavati|
30 for as you also once did not believe in God, and now found kindness by the unbelief of these,
ataeva pUrvvam Ishvare. avishvAsinaH santo. api yUyaM yadvat samprati teShAm avishvAsakAraNAd Ishvarasya kR^ipApAtrANi jAtAstadvad
31 so also these now did not believe, that in your kindness they also may find kindness;
idAnIM te. avishvAsinaH santi kintu yuShmAbhi rlabdhakR^ipAkAraNAt tairapi kR^ipA lapsyate|
32 for God shut up together the whole to unbelief, that to the whole He might do kindness. (eleēsē g1653)
IshvaraH sarvvAn prati kR^ipAM prakAshayituM sarvvAn avishvAsitvena gaNayati| (eleēsē g1653)
33 O depth of riches, and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgments, and untraceable His ways!
aho Ishvarasya j nAnabuddhirUpayo rdhanayoH kIdR^ik prAchuryyaM| tasya rAjashAsanasya tattvaM kIdR^ig aprApyaM| tasya mArgAshcha kIdR^ig anupalakShyAH|
34 For who knew the mind of the LORD? Or who became His counselor?
parameshvarasya sa NkalpaM ko j nAtavAn? tasya mantrI vA ko. abhavat?
35 Or who first gave to Him, and it will be given back to him again?
ko vA tasyopakArI bhR^itvA tatkR^ite tena pratyupakarttavyaH?
