Romans 11:7-10
New International Version

7 What then? What the people of Israel sought so earnestly they did not obtain.(A) The elect among them did, but the others were hardened,(B) 8 as it is written:

“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
    eyes that could not see
    and ears that could not hear,(C)
to this very day.”[a](D)

9 And David says:

“May their table become a snare and a trap,
    a stumbling block and a retribution for them.
10 May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see,(E)
    and their backs be bent forever.”[b](F)

Romans 11:7-10
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

7 What then? Israel has not achieved what it was pursuing. The elect have achieved it, but the rest were hardened,(A) 8 as it is written,

“God gave them a sluggish spirit,
    eyes that would not see
    and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.”(B)

9 And David says,

“Let their table become a snare and a trap,
    a stumbling block and a retribution for them;(C)
10 let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see,
    and keep their backs forever bent.”
