  2. 28for the Lord will execute his word upon the earth, finishing it and cutting it short.
  3. 29And, as Isaiah hath said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, We had become as Sodom, and had been made like unto Gomorrah.
  4. 30What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who followed not after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith:
  5. 31but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, did not arrive at that law.
