What then? (A)Israel has not obtained what it seeks; but the elect have obtained it, and the rest were (B)blinded. Just as it is written:

(C)“God has given them a spirit of stupor,
(D)Eyes that they should not see
And ears that they should not hear,
To this very day.”

And David says:

(E)“Let their table become a snare and a trap,
A stumbling block and a recompense to them.
10 Let their eyes be darkened, so that they do not see,
And bow down their back always.”

What then? What (A)Israel is seeking, it has not obtained, but [a]those who were chosen obtained it, and the rest were (B)hardened; just as it is written:

(C)God gave them a spirit of stupor,
Eyes to see not and ears to hear not,
Down to this very day.”

And David says,

(D)May their table become a snare and a trap,
And a stumbling block and a retribution to them.
10 (E)May their eyes be darkened to see not,
And bend their backs continually.”
