9 And David says, Let their table be for a snare, and for booty, and for a stumblingblock, and for a retribution to them: 10 Let their eyes be darkened not to see, and let them bend their back always. 11 I say then, Did they stumble that they might fall? It may not be: but by their fall salvation to the nations, to make them jealous.
