Rimljanima 10
1 Braćo! Želja je srca moga i molitva Bogu za njih: da se spase.
Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for them, that they may be saved.
2 Svjedočim doista za njih: imaju revnosti Božje, ali ne u pravom razumijevanju.
For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
3 Ne priznajući, doista, Božje pravednosti i tražeći uspostaviti svoju, pravednosti se Božjoj ne podložiše.
For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God.
4 Jer dovršetak je Zakona Krist - na opravdanje svakomu tko vjeruje.
For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
5 Da, Mojsije piše o onoj pravednosti iz Zakona: Tko je vrši, naći će život u njoj.
For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, "The one who does them will live by them."
6 A pravednost iz vjere ovako veli: Nemoj reći u srcu svom: Tko će se popeti na nebo - to jest Krista svesti?
But the righteousness which is of faith says this, "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will go up into heaven?' (that is, to bring Christ down);
or, 'Who will go down into the deep?' (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)" (Abyssos g12)
8 Nego što veli? Blizu ti je Riječ, u ustima tvojim i u srcu tvome - to jest Riječ vjere koju propovijedamo.
But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;" that is, the message of faith that we proclaim;
9 Jer ako ustima ispovijedaš da je Isus Gospodin, i srcem vjeruješ da ga je Bog uskrisio od mrtvih, bit ćeš spašen.
because, if you acknowledge with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 Doista, srcem vjerovati opravdava, a ustima ispovijedati spasava.
For with the heart one believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth acknowledgment is made, resulting in salvation.
11 Jer veli Pismo: Tko god u nj vjeruje, neće se postidjeti.
For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes in him will not be put to shame."
12 Nema uistinu razlike između Židova i Grka jer jedan je Gospodin sviju, bogat prema svima koji ga prizivlju.
For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord of all is rich to all who call on him.
13 Jer: Tko god prizove ime Gospodnje, bit će spašen.
For, "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved."
14 Ali kako da prizovu onoga u koga ne povjerovaše? A kako da povjeruju u onoga koga nisu čuli? Kako pak da čuju bez propovjednika?
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without someone preaching?
15 A kako propovijedati bez poslanja? Tako je pisano: Kako li su ljupke noge onih koji donose blagovijest dobra.
And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news of peace, who bring good news of good things."
16 Ali nisu svi poslušali blagovijesti - evanđelja! Zaista, Izaija veli: Gospodine, tko povjerova našoj poruci?
But they did not all listen to the Good News. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?"
17 Dakle: vjera po poruci, a poruka riječju Kristovom.
So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
18 Nego pitam: Zar nisu čuli? Dapače! Po svoj zemlji razliježe se jeka, riječi njihove sve do nakraj svijeta.
But I ask, isn't it rather that they did not hear? On the contrary, "Their voice has gone out to all the earth, their words to the farthest parts of the world."
19 Onda pitam: Zar Izrael nije shvatio? Najprije Mojsije veli: Ja ću vas na ljubomor izazvati pukom ništavnim, razdražit ću vas glupim nekim narodom.
But I ask, did not Israel know? First Moses says, "I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is not a people. I will make you angry with a foolish nation."
20 Izaija pak hrabro veli: Nađoše me koji me ne tražahu, objavih se onima koji me ne pitahu.
Isaiah is very bold, and says, "I was found by those who did not seek me. I was revealed to those who did not ask for me."
21 A Izraelu veli: Cio dan pružah ruku narodu nepokornom i buntovnom.
But as to Israel he says, "All day long I have stretched out my hands to a disobedient and obstinate people."
