Romans 11:9-11
New English Translation
9 And David says,
“Let their table become a snare and trap,
a stumbling block and a retribution for them;
10 let their eyes be darkened so that they may not see,
and make their backs bend continually.”[a]
11 I ask then, they did not stumble into an irrevocable fall,[b] did they? Absolutely not! But by their transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make Israel[c] jealous.
