Where it is used
- Romans 11:1 I ask then, did God reject His people? Certainly not! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.
- Romans 11:2 God did not reject His people, whom He foreknew. Do you not know what the Scripture says about Elijah, how he appealed to God against Israel:
- Romans 11:3 “Lord, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars. I am the only one left, and they are seeking my life as well”?
- Romans 11:4 And what was the divine reply to him? “I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”
- Romans 11:5 In the same way, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace.
- Romans 11:6 And if it is by grace, then it is no longer by works. Otherwise, grace would no longer be grace.
- Romans 11:7 What then? What Israel was seeking, it failed to obtain, but the elect did. The others were hardened,
- Romans 11:8 as it is written: “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that could not see, and ears that could not hear, to this very day.”
- Romans 11:9 And David says: “May their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a retribution to them.
- Romans 11:10 May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.”
- Romans 11:11 I ask then, did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Certainly not! However, because of their trespass, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel jealous.
- Romans 11:12 But if their trespass means riches for the world, and their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their fullness bring!
- Romans 11:13 I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry
- Romans 11:14 in the hope that I may provoke my own people to jealousy and save some of them.
- Romans 11:15 For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?
- Romans 11:16 If the first part of the dough is holy, so is the whole batch; if the root is holy, so are the branches.
- Romans 11:17 Now if some branches have been broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others to share in the nourishment of the olive root,
- Romans 11:18 do not boast over those branches. If you do, remember this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you.
- Romans 11:19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.”
- Romans 11:20 That is correct: They were broken off because of unbelief, but you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but be afraid.
- Romans 11:21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, He will certainly not spare you either.
- Romans 11:22 Take notice, therefore, of the kindness and severity of God: severity to those who fell, but kindness to you, if you continue in His kindness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
- Romans 11:23 And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
- Romans 11:24 For if you were cut from a wild olive tree, and contrary to nature were grafted into one that is cultivated, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!
- Romans 11:25 I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not be conceited: A hardening in part has come to Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.
- Romans 11:26 And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will remove godlessness from Jacob.
- Romans 11:27 And this is My covenant with them when I take away their sins.”
- Romans 11:28 Regarding the gospel, they are enemies on your account; but regarding election, they are loved on account of the patriarchs.
- Romans 11:29 For God’s gifts and His call are irrevocable.
- Romans 11:30 Just as you who formerly disobeyed God have now received mercy through their disobedience,
- Romans 11:31 so they too have now disobeyed, in order that they too may now receive mercy through the mercy shown to you.
- Romans 11:32 For God has consigned everyone to disobedience so that He may have mercy on everyone.
- Romans 11:33 O, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments, and untraceable His ways!
- Romans 11:36 For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen.
- Romans 12:1 Therefore I urge you, brothers, on account of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.
- Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.
- Romans 12:3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but think of yourself with sober judgment, according to the measure of faith God has given you.
- Romans 12:4 Just as each of us has one body with many members, and not all members have the same function,
- Romans 12:5 so in Christ we who are many are one body, and each member belongs to one another.
- Romans 12:6 We have different gifts according to the grace given us. If one’s gift is prophecy, let him use it in proportion to his faith;
- Romans 12:7 if it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach;
- Romans 12:8 if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is giving, let him give generously; if it is leading, let him lead with diligence; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.
- Romans 12:9 Love must be sincere. Detest what is evil; cling to what is good.

- Romans 12:12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, persistent in prayer.
- Romans 12:13 Share with the saints who are in need. Practice hospitality.
- Romans 12:14 Bless those who persecute you. Bless and do not curse.
- Romans 12:16 Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but associate with the lowly. Do not be conceited.
- Romans 12:18 If it is possible on your part, live at peace with everyone.
- Romans 12:19 Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written: “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.”
- Romans 12:20 On the contrary, “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink. For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head.”
- Romans 12:21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
- Romans 13:1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God.
- Romans 13:2 Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
- Romans 13:3 For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you want to be unafraid of the one in authority? Then do what is right, and you will have his approval.
- Romans 13:4 For he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not carry the sword in vain. He is God’s servant, an agent of retribution to the wrongdoer.
- Romans 13:5 Therefore it is necessary to submit to authority, not only to avoid punishment, but also as a matter of conscience.
- Romans 13:7 Pay everyone what you owe him: taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.
- Romans 13:8 Be indebted to no one, except to one another in love. For he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.
