PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Digo pues: ¿Por ventura ha desechado Dios á su pueblo? No por cierto: porque también yo soy Israelita del linage de Abraham, de la tribu de Benjamín,
1 I ask then, did God reject his people? May it never be! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
1 Λέγω οὖν, μὴ ἀπώσατο ὁ Θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ; μὴ γένοιτο· καὶ γὰρ ἐγὼ Ἰσραηλίτης εἰμί, ἐκ σπέρματος Ἀβραάμ, φυλῆς Βενιαμίν.
2 No ha desechado Dios á su pueblo, al que conoció en su presciencia. ¿O no sabéis lo que dice de Elías la Escritura: cómo se queja á Dios contra Israél?
2 God didn’t reject his people, whom he foreknew. Or don’t you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:
2 οὐκ ἀπώσατο ὁ Θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ὃν προέγνω. ἢ οὐκ οἴδατε ἐν Ἠλίᾳ τί λέγει ἡ γραφή, ὡς ἐντυγχάνει τῷ Θεῷ κατὰ τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ λέγων;
3 Señor, matáron tus Prophetas, derribaron tus altares: y yo he quedado solo, y me buscan para matarme.
3 “Lord, they have killed your prophets. They have broken down your altars. I am left alone, and they seek my life.”
3 Κύριε, τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν καὶ τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου κατέσκαψαν, κἀγὼ ὑπελείφθην μόνος, καὶ ζητοῦσι τὴν ψυχήν μου.
4 ¿Mas qué le dice la respuesta de Dios? Me he reservado siete mil varones, que no han doblado las rodillas delante de Báal.
4 But how does God answer him? “I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”
4 ἀλλὰ τί λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ χρηματισμός; κατέλιπον ἐμαυτῷ ἑπτακισχιλίους ἄνδρας, οἵτινες οὐκ ἔκαμψαν γόνυ τῇ Βάαλ.
5 Pues así también en éste tiempo, los que se han reservado de ellos, según la elección de la gracia, se han hecho salvos.
5 Even so too at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
5 οὕτως οὖν καὶ ἐν τῷ νῦν καιρῷ λεῖμμα κατ᾽ ἐκλογὴν χάριτος γέγονεν.
6 Y sí por gracia: luego no por obra: de otra manera la gracia ya no es gracia.
6 And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
6 εἰ δὲ χάριτι, οὐκέτι ἐξ ἔργων· ἐπεὶ ἡ χάρις οὐκέτι γίνεται χάρις. εἰ δὲ ἐξ ἔργων, οὐκέτι ἐστὶ χάρις· ἐπεὶ τὸ ἔργον οὐκέτι ἐστὶν ἔργον.
7 ¿Pues qué? lo que buscaba Israél; esto no lo alcanzó: mas los escogidos lo alcanzaron; y los demás fuéron cegados.
7 What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn’t obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.
7 Τί οὖν; ὃ ἐπιζητεῖ Ἰσραήλ, τοῦτο οὐκ ἐπέτυχεν, ἡ δὲ ἐκλογὴ ἐπέτυχεν· οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ ἐπωρώθησαν,
8 Así como está escrito: Les dió Dios espíritu de remordimiento: ojos para que no vean, y orejas para que no oigan hasta hoy día.
8 According as it is written, “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day.”
8 καθὼς γέγραπται· ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Θεὸς πνεῦμα κατανύξεως, ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν καὶ ὦτα τοῦ μὴ ἀκούειν, ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.
9 Y David dice: La mesa de ellos se les convierta en lazo, y en presa, y en escándalo, y en paga.
9 David says, “Let their table be made a snare, a trap, a stumbling block, and a retribution to them.
9 καὶ Δαυῒδ λέγει· γενηθήτω ἡ τράπεζα αὐτῶν εἰς παγίδα καὶ εἰς θήραν καὶ εἰς σκάνδαλον καὶ εἰς ἀνταπόδομα αὐτοῖς·
10 Escurecidos sean los ojos de ellos para que no vean: y agovia cada vez mas su espinazo.
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see. Always keep their backs bent.”
10 σκοτισθήτωσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν, καὶ τὸν νῶτον αὐτῶν διὰ παντὸς σύγκαμψον.
11 Pues digo: ¿Qué, tropezáron de manera que cayésen? No por cierto. Mas por el pecado de ellos vino la salud á los Gentiles, para incitarlos á la imitación.
11 I ask then, did they stumble that they might fall? May it never be! But by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
11 Λέγω οὖν, μὴ ἔπταισαν ἵνα πέσωσι; μὴ γένοιτο· ἀλλὰ τῷ αὐτῶν παραπτώματι ἡ σωτηρία τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, εἰς τὸ παραζηλῶσαι αὐτούς.
12 Y si el pecado de ellos son las riquezas del mundo, y el menoscabo de ellos las riquezas de los Gentiles; ¿Quánto mas la plenitud de ellos?
12 Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles, how much more their fullness!
12 εἰ δὲ τὸ παράπτωμα αὐτῶν πλοῦτος κόσμου καὶ τὸ ἥττημα αὐτῶν πλοῦτος ἐθνῶν, πόσῳ μᾶλλον τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῶν;
13 Porque con vosotros hablo, Gentiles: Mientras que yo sea Apóstol de las Gentes, honraré mi ministerio,
13 For I speak to you who are Gentiles. Since then as I am an apostle to Gentiles, I glorify my ministry,
13 Ὑμῖν γὰρ λέγω τοῖς ἔθνεσιν. ἐφ᾽ ὅσον μέν εἰμι ἐγὼ ἐθνῶν ἀπόστολος, τὴν διακονίαν μου δοξάζω,
14 Por si de algun modo puedo mover á emulación á los de mi nación, y hacer que se salven algunos de ellos.
14 if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and may save some of them.
14 εἴ πως παραζηλώσω μου τὴν σάρκα καὶ σώσω τινὰς ἐξ αὐτῶν.
15 Porque si la pérdida de ellos es la reconciliación del mundo; ¿qué será su restablecimiento, sino vida de los muertos?
15 For if the rejection of them is the reconciling of the world, what would their acceptance be, but life from the dead?
15 εἰ γὰρ ἡ ἀποβολὴ αὐτῶν καταλλαγὴ κόσμου, τίς ἡ πρόσληψις εἰ μὴ ζωὴ ἐκ νεκρῶν;
16 Y si el primer fruto es santo, lo es también la masa: y si la raíz es santa, también los ramos,
16 If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump. If the root is holy, so are the branches.
16 εἰ δὲ ἡ ἀπαρχὴ ἁγία, καὶ τὸ φύραμα· καὶ εἰ ἡ ῥίζα ἁγία, καὶ οἱ κλάδοι.
17 Y si alguno de los ramos fuéron quebrados, y tú siendo acebuche, fuiste ingerido en ellos, y has sido hecho participante de la raiz, y de la grosura de la oliva,
17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree,
17 Εἰ δέ τινες τῶν κλάδων ἐξεκλάσθησαν, σὺ δὲ ἀγριέλαιος ὢν ἐνεκεντρίσθης ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ συγκοινωνὸς τῆς ῥίζης καὶ τῆς πιότητος τῆς ἐλαίας ἐγένου,
18 No te jactes contra los ramos. Porque si te jactas, tú no sustentas á la raíz, sino la raíz á ti.
18 don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, remember that it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.
18 μὴ κατακαυχῶ τῶν κλάδων· εἰ δὲ κατακαυχᾶσαι, οὐ σὺ τὴν ῥίζαν βαστάζεις, ἀλλ᾽ ἡ ῥίζα σέ.
19 Pero dirás: Los ramos han sido quebrados, para que yo sea ingerido.
19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.”
19 ἐρεῖς οὖν· ἐξεκλάσθησαν [οἱ] κλάδοι, ἵνα ἐγὼ ἐγκεντρισθῶ.
20 Bien por su incredulidad fuéron quebrados: mas tú por la fé estás en pie: pues no te engrias por eso, mas antes teme.
20 True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Don’t be conceited, but fear;
20 καλῶς· τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ ἐξεκλάσθησαν, σὺ δὲ τῇ πίστει ἕστηκας. μὴ ὑψηλοφρόνει, ἀλλὰ φοβοῦ·
21 Porque si Dios no perdonó á los ramos naturales, ni menos te perdonará á tí.
21 for if God didn’t spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.
21 εἰ γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς τῶν κατὰ φύσιν κλάδων οὐκ ἐφείσατο, μή πως οὐδὲ σοῦ φείσεται.
22 Mira pues la bondad y la severidad de Dios: la severidad para con aquellos que cayéron; y la bondad de Dios para contigo, si permaneciéres en la bondad: de otra manera serás tú también cortado.
22 See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
22 ἴδε οὖν χρηστότητα καὶ ἀποτομίαν Θεοῦ, ἐπὶ μὲν τοὺς πεσόντας ἀποτομίαν, ἐπὶ δὲ σὲ χρηστότητα, ἐὰν ἐπιμείνῃς τῇ χρηστότητι· ἐπεὶ καὶ σὺ ἐκκοπήσῃ.
23 Y aún ellos, si no permanecieren en la incredulidad, serán ingeridos pues Dios es poderoso para ingerirlos de nuevo.
23 They also, if they don’t continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
23 καὶ ἐκεῖνοι δέ, ἐὰν μὴ ἐπιμείνωσι τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ, ἐγκεντρισθήσονται· δυνατὸς γὰρ ὁ Θεός ἐστι πάλιν ἐγκεντρίσαι αὐτούς.
24 Porque si tú fuiste cortado del natural acebuche, y contra natura has sido ingerido en buen olivo; ¿quánto mas aquellos, que son naturales, serán ingeridos en su propio olivo?
24 For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
24 εἰ γὰρ σὺ ἐκ τῆς κατὰ φύσιν ἐξεκόπης ἀγριελαίου καὶ παρὰ φύσιν ἐνεκεντρίσθης εἰς καλλιέλαιον, πόσῳ μᾶλλον οὗτοι οἱ κατὰ φύσιν ἐγκεντρισθήσονται τῇ ἰδίᾳ ἐλαίᾳ;
25 Mas no quiero, hermanos, que ignoréis éste misterio (porque no seáis sabios en vosotros mismos) que la ceguedad ha venido en parte á Israél, hasta que haya entrado la plenitud de las Gentes:
25 For I don’t desire you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery, so that you won’t be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in,
25 Οὐ γὰρ θέλω ὑμᾶς ἀγνοεῖν, ἀδελφοί, τὸ μυστήριον τοῦτο, ἵνα μὴ ἦτε παρ᾽ ἑαυτοῖς φρόνιμοι, ὅτι πώρωσις ἀπὸ μέρους τῷ Ἰσραὴλ γέγονεν ἄχρις οὗ τὸ πλήρωμα τῶν ἐθνῶν εἰσέλθῃ,
26 Y que así todo Israél se salvase, como está escrito: Vendrá de Sión el Libertador, que desterrará la impiedad de Jacob.
26 and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written, “There will come out of Zion the Deliverer, and he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
26 καὶ οὕτω πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ σωθήσεται, καθὼς γέγραπται· ἥξει ἐκ Σιὼν ὁ ῥυόμενος καὶ ἀποστρέψει ἀσεβείας ἀπὸ Ἰακώβ·
27 Y ésta será mi alianza con ellos: quando quitáre sus pecados.
27 This is my covenant with them, when I will take away their sins.”
27 καὶ αὕτη αὐτοῖς ἡ παρ᾽ ἐμοῦ διαθήκη, ὅταν ἀφέλωμαι τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν.
28 En verdad según el Evangelio son enemigos por causa de vosotros: mas según la elección son muy amados por causa de sus padres.
28 Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sake.
28 κατὰ μὲν τὸ εὐαγγέλιον ἐχθροὶ δι᾽ ὑμᾶς, κατὰ δὲ τὴν ἐκλογὴν ἀγαπητοὶ διὰ τοὺς πατέρας·
29 Pues los dones y vocación de Dios son inmutables.
29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
29 ἀμεταμέλητα γὰρ τὰ χαρίσματα καὶ ἡ κλῆσις τοῦ Θεοῦ.
30 Porque como también vosotros en algún tiempo no creísteis á Dios, y ahora habéis alcanzado misericordia por la incredulidad de ellos,
30 For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
30 ὥσπερ γὰρ καὶ ὑμεῖς ποτε ἠπειθήσατε τῷ Θεῷ, νῦν δὲ ἠλεήθητε τῇ τούτων ἀπειθείᾳ,
31 Así también estos ahora no han creído en vuestra misericordia: para que ellos alcancen también misericordia.
31 even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy.
31 οὕτω καὶ οὗτοι νῦν ἠπείθησαν, τῷ ὑμετέρῳ ἐλέει ἵνα καὶ αὐτοὶ ἐλεηθῶσι·
32 Porque Dios todas las cosas encerró en incredulidad, para usar con todos de misericordia.
32 For God has bound all to disobedience, that he might have mercy on all.
32 συνέκλεισε γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς τοὺς πάντας εἰς ἀπείθειαν, ἵνα τοὺς πάντας ἐλεήσῃ.
33 O profundidad de las riquezas de la sabiduría y de la ciencia de Dios! ¡ Quán incomprehensibles son sus juicios, é impenetrables sus caminos!
33 Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!
33 Ὦ βάθος πλούτου καὶ σοφίας καὶ γνώσεως Θεοῦ! ὡς ἀνεξερεύνητα τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνεξιχνίαστοι αἱ ὁδοὶ αὐτοῦ!
34 Porque quién entendió la mente del Señor? ¿O quién fué su consejero?
34 “For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?”
34 τίς γὰρ ἔγνω νοῦν Κυρίου; ἢ τίς σύμβουλος αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο;
35 ¿O quién le dió á el primero, para que le sea recompensado?
35 “Or who has first given to him, and it will be repaid to him again?”
35 ἢ τίς προέδωκεν αὐτῷ, καὶ ἀνταποδοθήσεται αὐτῷ;
36 Porque de él, y por él, y en él son todas las cosas: á él sea gloria en los siglos. Amén.
36 For of him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory for ever! Amen.
36 ὅτι ἐξ αὐτοῦ καὶ δι᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰς αὐτὸν τὰ πάντα. αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας· ἀμήν.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 11:7 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Romans (Homily XIX)

    He had said that God did not cast off His people; and to show in what sense He had not cast them off, he takes refuge in the Prophets again.

  2. Quotes verse 11:16 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book I, Chapter VIII)

    And that the Saviour received first-fruits of those whom He was to save, Paul declared when he said, "And if the first-fruits be holy, the lump is also holy," teaching that the expression "first-fruits" denoted that which is spiritual, but that "the lump" meant us, that is, the animal Church, the lump of which they say He assumed, and blended …

    What was it that Thou didst then, O my God, and how unsearchable are the depths of Thy judgments! For when, sore sick of a fever, he long lay unconscious in a death-sweat, and all despaired of his recovery, he was baptized without his knowledge; myself meanwhile little caring, presuming that his soul would retain rather what it had imbibed …
