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.”

  1. Romans 11:7 Lit the election

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.”
