Romans 11:16

If the dough offered as firstfruits is holy , so is the whole lump , and if the root is holy , so are the branches .

If the part of the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, then the whole batch is holy; if the root is holy, so are the branches.

For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy : and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
