Romans 11:8 in Context — Romans 11

6 Or, si c’est par grâce, ce n’est plus par les œuvres; autrement la grâce n’est plus une grâce. Et si c’est par les œuvres, ce n’est plus une grâce; autrement l’œuvre n’est plus une œuvre.

7 Quoi donc? Ce qu’Israël cherche, il ne l’a pas obtenu, mais l’élection l’a obtenu, tandis que les autres ont été endurcis,

8 selon qu’il est écrit: Dieu leur a donné un esprit d’assoupissement, Des yeux pour ne point voir, Et des oreilles pour ne point entendre, Jusqu’à ce jour. Et David dit:

9 Que leur table soit pour eux un piège, Un filet, une occasion de chute, et une rétribution!

10 Que leurs yeux soient obscurcis pour ne point voir, Et tiens leur dos continuellement courbé!
