Romans 11:7-9
Holman Christian Standard Bible
7 What then? Israel did not find what it was looking for,(A) but the elect did find it. The rest were hardened,(B) 8 as it is written:
God gave them a spirit of insensitivity,[a]
eyes that cannot see
and ears that cannot hear,
to this day.(C)[b]
9 And David says:
Let their feasting[c] become a snare and a trap,
a pitfall and a retribution to them.

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.
