Romans 9:31 in Context — Romans 9
29 Y como antes dijo Isaías: Si el Señor de los ejércitos no nos hubiera dejado simiente, como Sodoma habríamos venido á ser, y á Gomorra fuéramos semejantes.
30 ¿Pues qué diremos? Que los Gentiles que no seguían justicia, han alcanzado la justicia, es á saber, la justicia que es por la fe;
31 Mas Israel que seguía la ley de justicia, no ha llegado á la ley de justicia.
32 ¿Por qué? Porque [la seguían] no por fe, mas como por las obras de la ley: por lo cual tropezaron en la piedra de tropiezo,
33 Como está escrito: He aquí pongo en Sión piedra de tropiezo, y piedra de caída; y aquel que creyere en ella, no será avergonzado.
