9 And, David, saith - Let their table be turned into a snare, and into gin, and into a trap, and into a recompense unto them, 10 Darkened be their eyes, not to see, and, their back, do thou continually bow down. 11 I say then - Did they stumble in order that they might fall? Far be it! But, by their fall, salvation hath come unto the nations, to the end of provoking them to jealousy.
