28As regards the gospel they are enemies of God* for your sake; but as regards election they are beloved, for the sake of their ancestors;
29for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
30Just as you were once disobedient to God but have now received mercy because of their disobedience,
31so they have now been disobedient in order that, by the mercy shown to you, they too may now* receive mercy.
32For God has imprisoned all in disobedience so that he may be merciful to all.
33 O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgements and how inscrutable his ways!
34 For who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has been his counsellor?
35 Or who has given a gift to him,
to receive a gift in return?
36For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory for ever. Amen.
