Romans 9:28-30
Evangelical Heritage Version
Romans 9:28-30
Evangelical Heritage Version
28 For the Lord, who carries out what he says without delay,[a]
will do what he said completely and decisively on the earth.[b]
29 Just as Isaiah said earlier:
If the Lord of Armies[c] had not left us some descendants,
we would have become like Sodom, and we would have been
like Gomorrah.[d]
The Majority of Jews Rejected Justification by Faith
30 What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who were not pursuing righteousness, have obtained righteousness, a righteousness that is by faith.

King James Version
28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
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.
