Romans 9:29-31
World English Bible
29 As Isaiah has said before,
“Unless the Lord of Armies[a] had left us a seed,
we would have become like Sodom,
and would have been made like Gomorrah.”
30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn’t follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith; 31 but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn’t arrive at the law of righteousness.
