Romans 9:31 YLT

²⁹  and according as Isaiah saith before, 'Except the Lord of Sabaoth did leave to us a seed, as Sodom we had become, and as Gomorrah we had been made like.'

³⁰  What, then, shall we say? that nations who are not pursuing righteousness did attain to righteousness, and righteousness that 'is' of faith,

³¹  and Israel, pursuing a law of righteousness, at a law of righteousness did not arrive;

³²  wherefore? because -- not by faith, but as by works of law; for they did stumble at the stone of stumbling,

³³  according as it hath been written, 'Lo, I place in Sion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence; and every one who is believing thereon shall not be ashamed.'
