Romans 10:3

MSG

NIV

3 They don't seem to realize that this comprehensive setting-things-right that is salvation is God's business, and a most flourishing business it is. Right across the street they set up their own salvation shops and noisily hawk their wares. After all these years of refusing to really deal with God on his terms, insisting instead on making their own deals, they have nothing to show for it.
3 Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.
