Romans 9:31-33
Good News Translation

31 while God's people, who were seeking a law that would put them right with God, did not find it. 32 And why not? Because they did not depend on faith but on what they did. And so they stumbled over the “stumbling stone” 33 (A)that the scripture speaks of:

“Look, I place in Zion a stone
    that will make people stumble,
    a rock that will make them fall.
But whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”

Romans 9:31-33
New International Version

31 but the people of Israel, who pursued the law as the way of righteousness,(A) have not attained their goal.(B) 32 Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone.(C) 33 As it is written:

“See, I lay in Zion a stone that causes people to stumble
    and a rock that makes them fall,
    and the one who believes in him will never be put to shame.”[a](D)
