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.
You will say then, “Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.”
True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith.
Don’t be conceited, but fear; for if God didn’t spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.
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.
