Romans 9:25-33 - God Chose People Who Are Not Jewish
25 As he saith in Hosea, "I will call them my people which were not my people: and her beloved which was not beloved."
26 And, "It shall come to pass, in the place where it was said unto them, 'ye are not my people,' that there shall be called the children of the living God."
27 But Isaiah crieth concerning Israel, "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet shall a remnant be saved. 28 He finisheth the work verily and maketh it short in righteousness. For a short word will God make on earth."
29 And as Isaiah said before, "Except the Lord of hosts had left us seed, we had been made as Sodom, and had been likened to Gomorrah."
30 What shall we say then? We say that the gentiles which followed not righteousness, have overtaken righteousness: I mean, the righteousness which cometh of faith. 31 But Israel, which followed the law of righteousness, could not attain unto the law of righteousness. 32 And wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith: but as it were, by the works of the law. For they have stumbled at the stumbling stone. 33 As it is written, "Behold I put in Zion a stumbling stone, and a rock which shall make men fall. And none that believe on him, shall be ashamed."
