29 God's gifts and calling can't be taken back.
29
for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
30 Once you were disobedient to God, but now you have mercy because they were disobedient.
30
Just as you were once disobedient to God but have now received mercy because of their disobedience,
31 In the same way, they have also been disobedient because of the mercy that you received, so now they can receive mercy too.
31
so they have now been disobedient in order that, by the mercy shown to you, they too may now receive mercy.
32 God has locked up all people in disobedience, in order to have mercy on all of them.
32
For God has imprisoned all in disobedience so that he may be merciful to all.
