Romans 9:29-32
New King James Version
29 And as Isaiah said before:
(A)“Unless the Lord of [a]Sabaoth had left us a seed,
(B)We would have become like Sodom,
And we would have been made like Gomorrah.”
Present Condition of Israel
30 What shall we say then? (C)That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attained to righteousness, (D)even the righteousness of faith; 31 but Israel, (E)pursuing the law of righteousness, (F)has not attained to the law [b]of righteousness. 32 Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, [c]by the works of the law. For (G)they stumbled at that stumbling stone.

Romans 9:29-32
New American Standard Bible
29 And just as Isaiah foretold:
“(A)If (B)the Lord [a]of armies had not left us [b](C)descendants,
(D)We would have become like Sodom, and would have [c]been like Gomorrah.”
30 (E)What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, attained righteousness, but (F)the righteousness that is [d]by faith; 31 however, Israel, (G)pursuing a law of righteousness, did not (H)arrive at that law. 32 Why? Because they did not pursue it [e]by faith, but as though they could [f]by works. They stumbled over (I)the stumbling stone,

New International Version
29 It is just as Isaiah said previously:
“Unless the Lord Almighty(A)
had left us descendants,
we would have become like Sodom,
we would have been like Gomorrah.”[a](B)
Israel’s Unbelief
30 What then shall we say?(C) That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith;(D) 31 but the people of Israel, who pursued the law as the way of righteousness,(E) have not attained their goal.(F) 32 Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone.(G)

King James Version
29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.
30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
