Your rulers are rebels,
friends of thieves.
They all love graft
and chase after bribes.
They do not defend the rights of the fatherless,
and the widow’s case never comes before them.

For if we be graft in death like unto him: even so must we be in the resurrection.

Though some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, art graft in among them, and made partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

Thou wilt say then, "The branches are broken off, that I might be graft in."

And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.

For if you were cut off from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and against nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much easier will it be to graft these who are the natural branches back into [the original parent stock of] their own olive tree?
