Romans 11:28
King James VersionSource notes
“As concerning the gospel, enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, beloved for the fathers’ sakes.”
Context
25For 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.
26And 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:
27For this my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
28As concerning the gospel, enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, beloved for the fathers’ sakes.
29For the gifts and calling of God without repentance.
30For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
31Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
