Romans 11:5-7
New Living Translation
5 It is the same today, for a few of the people of Israel[a] have remained faithful because of God’s grace—his undeserved kindness in choosing them. 6 And since it is through God’s kindness, then it is not by their good works. For in that case, God’s grace would not be what it really is—free and undeserved.
7 So this is the situation: Most of the people of Israel have not found the favor of God they are looking for so earnestly. A few have—the ones God has chosen—but the hearts of the rest were hardened.

5 So too, at the present time there is a remnant(A) chosen by grace.(B) 6 And if by grace, then it cannot be based on works;(C) if it were, grace would no longer be grace.
7 What then? What the people of Israel sought so earnestly they did not obtain.(D) The elect among them did, but the others were hardened,(E)

Romans 11:5-7
King James Version
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
