Romans 9:30-33

21st Century King James Version

³⁰ What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is by faith;

³¹ but Israel, who followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.

³² Why so? Because they sought it not by faith but, as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone.

³³ As it is written: “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, and whosoever believeth in Him shall not be ashamed.”
