In context

4 And what was the divine reply to him? “I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”

5 In the same way, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace.

6 And if it is by grace, then it is no longer by works. Otherwise, grace would no longer be grace.

7 What then? What Israel was seeking, it failed to obtain, but the elect did. The others were hardened,

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

9 And David says: “May their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a retribution to them.

10 May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.”
