μὴ ἀπώσατο ὁ Θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ?
not pushed_away ¬the God the people ˱of˲_him
Paul is not asking for information, but is using a rhetorical question here to emphasize the truth of what he is saying. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate his words as statements or exclamations and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “Surely God did not reject his people!”
