New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Romans 10
21 But as for Israel He says, "All the day long I have stretched out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people."
Romans 11
1 I say then, God has not rejected His people, has He? May it never be! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 God has not rejected His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?
3 "Lord, they have killed Your prophets, they have torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they are seeking my life."
4 But what is the divine response to him? "I have kept for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal."
5 In the same way then, there has also come to be at the present time a remnant according to God’s gracious choice.
6 But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works, otherwise grace is no longer grace.
7 What then? What Israel is seeking, it has not obtained, but those who were chosen obtained it, and the rest were hardened;
8 just as it is written, "God gave them a spirit of stupor, Eyes to see not and ears to hear not, Down to this very day."
9 And David says, "Let their table become a snare and a trap, And a stumbling block and a retribution to them.
10 "Let their eyes be darkened to see not, And bend their backs forever."
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
