8. As it has been written, “יהוה has given them a spirit of deep sleep, eyes not to see and ears not to hear, unto this day.”
9. Dawiḏ also says, “Let their table become for a snare, and for a trap, and for a stumbling-block and a recompense to them,
10. let their eyes be darkened, not to see, and bow down their back always.”
11. I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Let it not be! But by their fall deliverance has come to the gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
12. And if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the gentiles, how much more their completeness!
13. For I speak to you, the gentiles, inasmuch as I am an emissary to the gentiles, I esteem my service,
14. if somehow I might provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them.
15. For if their casting away is the restoration to favour of the world, what is their acceptance but life from the dead?
