Brethren my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they might be saved.

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

For the scripture saith Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

And how shall they preach except they be sent? as it is written How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace and bring glad tidings of good things!

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith Lord who hath believed our report?

So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God.

But I say Have they not heard? Yes verily their sound went into all the earth and their words unto the ends of the world.

But I say Did not Israel know? First Moses saith I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people and by a foolish nation I will anger you.

For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God but not according to knowledge.

But Esaias is very bold and saith I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.

But to Israel he saith All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.

For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness and going about to establish their own righteousness have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise Say not in thine heart Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is to bring Christ down from above:)

Or Who shall descend into the deep? (that is to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee even in thy mouth and in thy heart: that is the word of faith which we preach;

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead thou shalt be saved.

Paul a servant of Jesus Christ called to be an apostle separated unto the gospel of God

Making request if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.

For I long to see you that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift to the end ye may be established;

I say then Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite of the seed of Abraham of the tribe of Benjamin.

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

I 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.

Now 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?

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

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

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

For if the firstfruit be holy the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy so are the branches.

And if some of the branches be broken off and thou being a wild olive tree wert graffed in among them and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast thou bearest not the root but the root thee.

Thou wilt say then The branches were broken off that I might be graffed in.

That is that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel saying

Well; because of unbelief they were broken off and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded but fear:

For if God spared not the natural branches take heed lest he also spare not thee.

Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell severity; but toward thee goodness if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

And they also if they abide not still in unbelief shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.

For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these which be the natural branches be graffed into their own olive tree?

For I would not brethren that ye should be ignorant of this mystery lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

For this is my covenant unto them when I shall take away their sins.

As concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes.

For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

Now I would not have you ignorant brethren that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you (but was let hitherto ) that I might have some fruit among you also even as among other Gentiles.

Lord they have killed thy prophets and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone and they seek my life.

For as ye in times past have not believed God yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
