11 Revised Standard Version Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

11 1I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin.The Remnant of Israel Ro.11.1-10Λέγω οὖν, μὴ ἀπώσατο ὁ θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ; μὴ γένοιτο· καὶ γὰρ ἐγὼ Ἰσραηλίτης εἰμί, ἐκ σπέρματος Ἀβραάμ, φυλῆς Βενιαμείν.
2God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Eli'jah, how he pleads with God against Israel?- God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Eli Ro.11.2 | Ps.94.14οὐκ ἀπώσατο ὁ θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ὃν προέγνω. ἢ οὐκ οἰδατε ἐν Ἠλίᾳ τί λέγει ἡ γραφή; ὡς ἐντυγχάνει τῷ θεῷ κατὰ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ,
3"Lord, they have killed thy prophets, they have demolished thy altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life."- "Lord, they have killed thy prophets, they have demolished thy altars, and I alone am left, Ro.11.3 | 1Kgs.19.10-14Κύριε, τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν, τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου κατέσκαψαν, κἀγὼ ὑπελείφθην μόνος, καὶ ζητοῦσιν τὴν ψυχήν μου.
4But what is God's reply to him? "I have kept for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Ba'al."- But what is God's reply to him? "I have kept for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed th Ro.11.4 | 1Kgs.19.18ἀλλὰ τί λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ χρηματισμός; Kατέλιπον ἐμαυτῷ ἑπτακισχιλίους ἄνδρας, οἵτινες οὐκ ἔκαμψαν γόνυ τῇ Βάαλ.
5So too at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace. οὑτως οὖν καὶ ἐν τῷ νῦν καιρῷ λεῖμμα κατ' ἐκλογὴν χάριτος γέγονεν·
6But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace. εἰ δὲ χάριτι, οὐκέτι ἐξ ἐργων, ἐπεὶ ἡ χάρις οὐκέτι γίνεται χάρις.
7What then? Israel failed to obtain what it sought. The elect obtained it, but the rest were hardened, τί οὖν; ὃ ἐπιζητεῖ Ἰσραήλ, τοῦτο οὐκ ἐπέτυχεν, ἡ δὲ ἐκλογὴ ἐπέτυχεν· οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ ἐπωρώθησαν,
8as it is written,

"God gave them a spirit of stupor,
eyes that should not see
and ears that should not hear,
down to this very day."

- eyes that should not see and ears that should not hear Ro.11.8 | Dt.29.4 | Is.29.10καθὼς γέγραπται,

Ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ θεὸς πνεῦμα κατανύξεως,
ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν
καὶ ὦτα τοῦ μὴ ἀκούειν,
ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.

9And David says,

"Let their table become a snare and a trap,
a pitfall and a retribution for them;

- Let their table become a snare and a trap Ro.11.9-10 | Ps.69.22-23 | Ps.35.8καὶ Δαυὶδ λέγει,

Γενηθήτω ἡ τράπεζα αὐτῶν εἰς παγίδα καὶ εἰς θήραν
καὶ εἰς σκάνδαλον καὶ εἰς ἀνταπόδομα αὐτοῖς,

10let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see,
and bend their backs for ever."
 σκοτισθήτωσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν,
καὶ τὸν νῶτον αὐτῶν διὰ παντὸς σύγκαμψον.
