Romans 11:10

10Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.

Romans 11:11

11I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.

Romans 11:12

12Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?

Romans 11:13

13For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:

Romans 11:14

14If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.

Romans 11:15

15For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
