11:19 这样,你要说,那些枝子被折下来,是特为叫我接上去。
You will say then, Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.
11:20 不错,他们因着不信,所以被折下来,你因着信,所以站立得住。你不可心思高傲,倒要惧怕;
Rightly said: they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be high-minded, but fear;
11:21 因为神若不吝惜本来的枝子,也必不吝惜你。
For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will He spare you.
11:22 你看神的恩慈和严厉:对那跌倒的人是严厉,对你却是神的恩慈,只要你常留在祂的恩慈中;不然,你也要被砍下来。
Behold then the kindness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but on you, the kindness of God, if you continue in His kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
11:23 而且他们若不是常留于不信中,仍要被接上,因为神能够把他们重新接上。
And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
11:24 你是从那天然的野橄榄树上砍下来的,尚且逆着性得接在栽种的橄榄树上,何况这些天然的枝子,岂不更要接在自己的橄榄树上么?
For if you were cut off from what is by nature a wild olive tree and were grafted contrary to nature into the cultivated olive tree, how much more will these who are the natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree!
11:25 弟兄们,我不愿意你们不知道这奥秘,(恐怕你们自以为精明,)就是以色列人有几分硬心,直到外邦人的数目添满了,
For I do not want you, brothers, to be ignorant of this mystery (lest you be wise in yourselves), that hardness has come upon Israel in part, until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in;
11:26 于是以色列全家都要得救,如经上所记:“必有拯救者从锡安出来,祂要从雅各家消除不虔。
And thus all Israel will be saved, as it is written, "The Deliverer will come out of Zion; He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
11:27 我除去他们罪的时候,这就是我与他们所立的约。”
And this is the covenant from Me with them, when I take away their sins.''
11:28 就着福音说,他们因你们的缘故是仇敌;但就着拣选说,他们因列祖的缘故是蒙爱的。
According to the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but according to the selection they are beloved for the fathers' sake.
11:29 因为神的恩赐和呼召,是没有后悔的。
For the gracious gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
11:30 你们从前不信从神,如今却因他们的不信从,蒙了怜悯;
For just as you once disobeyed God, but now have been shown mercy because of their disobedience,
11:31 照样,他们现今也是不信从的,叫他们因着你们所蒙的怜悯,现今也就蒙怜悯。
So these also now have disobeyed, so that because of the mercy shown to you they also now may be shown mercy.
11:32 因为神将众人都圈在不信从之中,为要怜悯众人。
For God has shut up all in disobedience that He might show mercy to all.
11:33 深哉,神的丰富、智慧和知识!祂的判断何其难测,祂的道路何其难寻!
O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and untraceable His ways!
11:34 谁曾知道主的心思,谁曾作过祂的策士?
For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has become His counselor?
11:35 谁曾先给了祂,使祂后来偿还?
Or who has first given to Him, and it will be repaid to him?
11:36 因为万有都是本于祂、藉着祂、并归于祂;愿荣耀归与祂,直到永远。阿们。
Because out from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen.
