Romans 11:7-10
English Standard Version
7 What then? (A)Israel failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest (B)were hardened, 8 as it is written,
(C)“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
(D)eyes that would not see
and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.”
9 And David says,
(E)“Let their table become a snare and a trap,
a stumbling block and a retribution for them;
10 let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see,
and bend their backs forever.”
Romans 11:7-10

7 What then? What Israel was searching for, this it did not obtain. But the elect obtained it, and the rest were hardened, 8 just as it is written,
“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
eyes that do not see and ears that do not hear,
until this very day.”[a]
9 And David says,
“Let their table become a snare and a trap,
and a cause for stumbling and a retribution to them;
10 let their eyes be darkened so that they do not see,
and cause their backs to bend continually[b].”[c]
