What will we say then?

Paul uses this question to get the attention of his readers. Alternate translation: "This is what we must say" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)

That the Gentiles

"We will say that the Gentiles"

who were not pursuing righteousness

"who were not trying to please God"

the righteousness by faith

Here "by faith" refers to placing one's trust in Christ. You can make this explicit in your translation. Alternate translation: "because God made them right with him when they trusted in Christ" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit)
