Romans 11:8-10

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

‘God gave them a sluggish spirit,
    eyes that would not see
    and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.’

‘Let their table become a snare and a trap,
    a stumbling-block and a retribution for them;
¹⁰ let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see,
    and keep their backs for ever bent.’
