Romans 11:19

All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he does according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and no one can stop his hand, or ask him, “What are you doing?”

and he said, “Yahweh, the God of our fathers, aren’t you God in heaven? Aren’t you ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in your hand, so that no one is able to withstand you.

Yahweh called your name, “A green olive tree, beautiful with goodly fruit.” With the noise of a great roar he has kindled fire on it, and its branches are broken.

Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s loving kindness forever and ever.

He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?

But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree,

that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,

For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,

They are planted in Yahweh’s house. They will flourish in our God’s courts.

Consider the work of God, for who can make that straight, which he has made crooked?

He will break it as a potter’s vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing, so that there won’t be found among the broken pieces a piece good enough to take fire from the hearth, or to dip up water out of the cistern.”

“Therefore I tell you, God’s Kingdom will be taken away from you, and will be given to a nation producing its fruit.

For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all who are far off, even as many as the Lord our God will call to himself.”

But someone will say, “How are the dead raised?” and, “With what kind of body do they come?”

You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,

Therefore, putting away all filthiness and overflowing of wickedness, receive with humility the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

God give you of the dew of the sky, of the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and new wine.

As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to save many people alive, as is happening today.

a land of wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive trees and honey;

Yahweh will not pardon him, but then Yahweh’s anger and his jealousy will smoke against that man, and all the curse that is written in this book will fall on him, and Yahweh will blot out his name from under the sky.

If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If of justice, ‘Who,’ says he, ‘will summon me?’

But he stands alone, and who can oppose him? What his soul desires, even that he does.

Surely the wrath of man praises you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.

But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.

If there is a tenth left in it, that also will in turn be consumed, as a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stump remains when they are cut down; so the holy seed is its stock.”

When its boughs are withered, they will be broken off. The women will come and set them on fire, for they are a people of no understanding. Therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them, and he who formed them will show them no favor.

One thousand will flee at the threat of one. At the threat of five, you will flee until you are left like a beacon on the top of a mountain, and like a banner on a hill.

It will happen, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, ‘As Yahweh lives;’ even as they taught my people to swear by Baal, then they will be built up in the middle of my people.

For, behold, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should you be utterly unpunished? You will not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, says Yahweh of Armies.” ’

For Yahweh says: “Behold, they to whom it didn’t pertain to drink of the cup will certainly drink; and are you he who will altogether go unpunished? You won’t go unpunished, but you will surely drink.

Therefore as I live,’ says the Lord Yahweh, ‘surely, because you have defiled my sanctuary with all your detestable things, and with all your abominations, therefore I will also diminish you. My eye won’t spare, and I will have no pity.

Then the men feared Yahweh exceedingly; and they offered a sacrifice to Yahweh, and made vows.

and two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side of it.”

For the Son of Man goes, even as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born.”

him, being delivered up by the determined counsel and foreknowledge of God, you have taken by the hand of lawless men, crucified and killed;

You will say then to me, “Why does he still find fault? For who withstands his will?”

But they didn’t all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”

If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump. If the root is holy, so are the branches.

for if God didn’t spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.

Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.

God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Now I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

Now if Christ is preached, that he has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

“We, being Jews by nature, and not Gentile sinners,

for your partnership in furtherance of the Good News from the first day until now;

giving thanks to the Father, who made us fit to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light,

and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God’s growth.

Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brothers, but rather let them serve them, because those who partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.

Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession: Jesus,

Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there might be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God;

Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.

Now I desire to remind you, though you already know this, that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who didn’t believe.

These are the two olive trees and the two lamp stands, standing before the Lord of the earth.
