Romans 9:6 in other translations
Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
It is not as though God’s word has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.
But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel that are of Israel.

In context
3 For I wished myself to be an anathema from Christ, for my brethren: who are my kinsmen according to the flesh:
4 Who are Israelites: to whom belongeth the adoption as of children and the glory and the testament and the giving of the law and the service of God and the promises:
5 Whose are the fathers and of whom is Christ, according to the flesh, who is over all things, God blessed for ever. Amen.
6 Not as though the word of God hath miscarried. For all are not Israelites that are of Israel.
7 Neither are all they that are the seed of Abraham, children: but in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
8 That is to say, not they that are the children of the flesh are the children of God: but they that are the children of the promise are accounted for the seed.
9 For this is the word of promise: According to this time will I come. And Sara shall have a son.
