19. You will say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
20. Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Be not arrogant, but fear:
21. For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also not spare you.
22. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness: otherwise you also shall be cut off.
23. And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
24. For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, who are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
