New King James Version
7 What then? (A)Israel has not obtained what it seeks; but the elect have obtained it, and the rest were (B)blinded. 8 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.”
9 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.”
Israel’s Rejection Not Final
11 I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But (F)through their [a]fall, to provoke them to (G)jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.
