   "t": "And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again."
  },
  {
   "v": 24,
   "t": "For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?"

  {
   "v": 25,
   "t": "For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in."
