Romans 11:7-14

7What then? Israel failed to obtain what it was diligently seeking, but the elect obtained it. The rest were hardened,

8as it is written, “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that would not see and ears that would not hear, to this very day.”

9And David says, “Let their table become a snare and trap, a stumbling block and a retribution for them;

10let their eyes be darkened so that they may not see, and make their backs bend continually.”

11I ask then, they did not stumble into an irrevocable fall, did they? Absolutely not! But by their transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make Israel jealous.

12Now if their transgression means riches for the world and their defeat means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full restoration bring?

13Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Seeing that I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry,

14if somehow I could provoke my people to jealousy and save some of them.
