Romans 9:30-33
Christian Standard Bible
Israel’s Present State
30 What should we say then?(A) Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained righteousness—namely the righteousness that comes from faith.(B) 31 But Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness,(C) has not achieved the righteousness of the law.[a](D) 32 Why is that? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were by works.[b] They stumbled over the stumbling stone.(E) 33 As it is written,
Look, I am putting a stone in Zion to stumble over
and a rock to trip over,
and the one who believes on him(F)
will not be put to shame.[c](G)
Romans 9:30-33
New American Standard Bible
30 (A)What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, attained righteousness, but (B)the righteousness that is [a]by faith; 31 however, Israel, (C)pursuing a law of righteousness, did not (D)arrive at that law. 32 Why? Because they did not pursue it [b]by faith, but as though they could [c]by works. They stumbled over (E)the stumbling stone, 33 just as it is written:
“(F)Behold, I am laying in Zion (G)a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense,
(H)And the one who believes in Him (I)will not be [d]put to shame.”
