7What then? What Israel was seeking, it failed to obtain, but the elect did. The others were hardened,
8as it is written:
“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
eyes that could not see,
and ears that could not hear,
to this very day.”
9And David says:
“May their table become a snare and a trap,
a stumbling block and a retribution to them.
10May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see,
and their backs be bent forever.”
— Romans 11:7-10
