Romans 11:16 in Context — Romans 11

14 a fim de que, de alguma maneira, eu provoque ciúmes aos do meu povo, e salve alguns deles.

15 Pois, se a rejeição deles é a reconciliação do mundo, o que será sua admissão, senão vida dentre os mortos?

16 E se as primícias são santas, a massa também é; e se a raiz é santa, os ramos também são.

17 Porém, se alguns dos ramos foram quebrados e separados, e sendo tu oliveira selvagem, foste enxertado no lugar deles, e feito participante da raiz, e nutrido pela boa oliveira,

18 não te orgulhes de ser melhor que os ramos. Mesmo se te orgulhares, não és tu que sustentas a raiz, mas sim, a raiz a ti.
