Romans 11:28-32
New Living Translation
28 Many of the people of Israel are now enemies of the Good News, and this benefits you Gentiles. Yet they are still the people he loves because he chose their ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 29 For God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn. 30 Once, you Gentiles were rebels against God, but when the people of Israel rebelled against him, God was merciful to you instead. 31 Now they are the rebels, and God’s mercy has come to you so that they, too, will share[a] in God’s mercy. 32 For God has imprisoned everyone in disobedience so he could have mercy on everyone.

New International Version
28 As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies(A) for your sake; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs,(B) 29 for God’s gifts and his call(C) are irrevocable.(D) 30 Just as you who were at one time disobedient(E) to God have now received mercy as a result of their disobedience, 31 so they too have now become disobedient in order that they too may now[a] receive mercy as a result of God’s mercy to you. 32 For God has bound everyone over to disobedience(F) so that he may have mercy on them all.
