God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying,
And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. [a]But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their [b]fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.
Итак, я спрашиваю: может быть, они споткнулись, чтобы упасть навсегда? Конечно же нет! Но их падение принесло спасение язычникам, которое должно возбудить ревность74 и в самих израильтянах.
And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and [d]fatness of the olive tree,
Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, [e]goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
Подумай о доброте и о строгости Божьей: строгости к тем, кто отпал, и доброте к тебе, при условии, что ты продолжаешь жить в Его доброте, иначе ты тоже будешь отсечен.
For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
Если ты был срезан с дикого по природе оливкового дерева и вопреки своей природе был привит к окультуренному дереву, то тем более природные ветви привьются к своему собственному дереву!
For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own [f]opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.
Братья, чтобы вы не считали себя умнее, чем вы есть, я не хочу оставить вас в неведении о тайне: часть Израиля будет ожесточена до тех пор, пока полностью не придет к Богу полное число язычников.
