Romans 9:30
Compare all
28 For1 He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness,
aBecause the Lord will make a short work upon the earth.”  
29 And as Isaiah said before:
a“Unless the Lord of1 Sabaoth had left us a seed,
bWe would have become like Sodom,
And we would have been made like Gomorrah.”  

Present Condition of Israel

30 What shall we say then? aThat Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attained to righteousness, beven the righteousness of faith;  
31 but Israel, apursuing the law of righteousness, bhas not attained to the law of righteousness.  
32 Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were,1 by the works of the law. For athey stumbled at that stumbling stone.  
33 As it is written:
a“Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense,
And bwhoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”

Romans 9:30-31

Romans 9:30 What shall we say then? What conclusion shall we reach? It has been shown that the word of God is not of none effect, for it has foreshown all that has taken place (Romans 9:6). The conclusion is this: That the Gentiles, who followed not after righteousness, has no knowledge of it, had secured righteousness by accepting Christ, through faith in him, while Israel, who follow after the law of righteousness, hath failed of righteousness before God through unbelief.
