Romans 11:23-24
The Message
23-24 And don’t get to feeling superior to those pruned branches down on the ground. If they don’t persist in remaining deadwood, they could very well get grafted back in. God can do that. He can perform miracle grafts. Why, if he could graft you—branches cut from a tree out in the wild—into an orchard tree, he certainly isn’t going to have any trouble grafting branches back into the tree they grew from in the first place. Just be glad you’re in the tree, and hope for the best for the others.

Romans 11:23-24
New International Version
23 And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.(A) 24 After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree,(B) how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!
