Romans 10

1 Brethren, the delight of my own heart and my supplication which [I address] to God for them is for salvation.

Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

2 For I bear them witness that they have zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

3 For they, being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own [righteousness], have not submitted to the righteousness of God.

For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.

4 For Christ is [the] end of law for righteousness to every one that believes.

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes.

5 For Moses lays down in writing the righteousness which is of the law, The man who has practised those things shall live by them.

For Moses describes the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which does those things shall live by them.

6 But the righteousness of faith speaks thus: Do not say in thine heart, Who shall ascend to the heavens? that is, to bring Christ down;

But the righteousness which is of faith speaks likewise, Say not in your heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above: )

7 or, Who shall descend into the abyss? that is, to bring up Christ from among [the] dead. (Abyssos g12)

Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) (Abyssos g12)

8 But what says it? The word is near thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach:

But what says it? The word (rhema) is nigh you, even in your mouth, and in your heart: that is, the word (rhema) of faith, which we preach;

9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised him from among [the] dead, thou shalt be saved.

That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved.

10 For with [the] heart is believed to righteousness; and with [the] mouth confession made to salvation.

For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the scripture says, No one believing on him shall be ashamed.

For the scripture says, Whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference of Jew and Greek; for the same Lord of all [is] rich towards all that call upon him.

For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For every one whosoever, who shall call on the name of the Lord, shall be saved.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

14 How then shall they call upon him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe on him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without one who preaches?

How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

15 and how shall they preach unless they have been sent? according as it is written, How beautiful the feet of them that announce glad tidings of peace, of them that announce glad tidings of good things!

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

16 But they have not all obeyed the glad tidings. For Esaias says, Lord, who has believed our report?

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report?

17 So faith then [is] by a report, but the report by God's word.

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word (rhema) of God.

18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yea, surely, Their voice has gone out into all the earth, and their words to the extremities of the habitable world.

But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words (rhema) unto the ends of the world.

19 But I say, Has not Israel known? First, Moses says, I will provoke you to jealousy through [them that are] not a nation: through a nation without understanding I will anger you.

But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses says, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.

20 But Esaias is very bold, and says, I have been found by those not seeking me; I have become manifest to those not inquiring after me.

But Isaiah is very bold, and says, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.

21 But unto Israel he says, All the day long I have stretched out my hands unto a people disobeying and opposing.

But to Israel he says, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
