Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?

Denn so ihr Fall der Welt Reichtum ist, und ihr Schade ist der Heiden Reichtum, wie viel mehr, wenn ihre Zahl voll würde?
Y si la falta de ellos es la riqueza del mundo, y el menoscabo de ellos la riqueza de los Gentiles, ¿cuánto más el henchimiento de ellos?
Or, si leur chute a été la richesse du monde, et leur amoindrissement la richesse des païens, combien plus en sera-t-il ainsi quand ils se convertiront tous.
Ora, se la lor caduta è la ricchezza del mondo, e la lor diminuzione la ricchezza de’ Gentili, quanto più lo sarà la lor pienezza?
E se a sua queda é a riqueza do mundo, e a sua diminuição a riqueza dos gentios, quanto mais a sua plenitude!
如果他們的過犯成為世界的富足,他們的缺乏成為外邦人的富足,更何況他們全數得救呢?
