Romans 9:32 ASV

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

³¹  but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, did not arrive at `that' law.

³²  Wherefore? Because `they sought it' not by faith, but as it were by works. They stumbled at the stone of stumbling;

³³  even as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.
