Romans 10

1 BRETHREN, the kind wish of my heart indeed, and the prayer which I offer to God for Israel, is for their salvation.

Brethren, mine hearts desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saued.

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

For I beare them record, that they haue the zeale of God, but not according to knowledge.

3 For being ignorant of the righteousness which is of God, and seeking to establish a righteousness of their own, they have not submitted to the righteousness of God.

For they, being ignorant of the righteousnes of God, and going about to stablish their owne righteousnes, haue not submitted themselues to the righteousnes of God.

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

For Christ is the end of the Law for righteousnes vnto euery one that beleeueth.

5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is by the law, “That the man who doeth these things shall live by them.”

For Moses thus describeth the righteousnes which is of the Lawe, That the man which doeth these things, shall liue thereby.

6 But the righteousness that is by faith speaketh thus, “Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down: )

But the righteousnes which is of faith, speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heauen? (that is to bring Christ from aboue)

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

Or, Who shall descend into the deepe? (that is to bring Christ againe from the dead) (Abyssos g12)

8 But what saith it? “The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart:” that is, the word of faith which we preach;

But what sayth it? The worde is neere thee, euen in thy mouth, and in thine heart. This is the worde of faith which we preach.

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

For if thou shalt confesse with thy mouth the Lord Iesus, and shalt beleeue in thine heart, that God raised him vp from the dead, thou shalt be saued:

10 For with the heart faith is exercised unto righteousness; and with the mouth is confession made unto salvation.

For with the heart man beleeueth vnto righteousnes, and with the mouth man confesseth to saluation.

11 For the scripture saith, “Every one who believeth in him shall not be confounded.”

For the Scripture saith, Whosoeuer beleeueth in him, shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference between either Jew or Greek: for the same Lord of all is rich to all that call upon him.

For there is no difference betweene the Iewe and the Grecian: for he that is Lord ouer all, is rich vnto all, that call on him.

13 “For every one shall be saved, whosoever calleth on the name of the Lord.”

For whosoeuer shall call vpon the Name of the Lord, shalbe saued.

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? but how shall they hear without a preacher?

But how shall they call on him, in whome they haue not beleeued? and how shall they beleeue in him, of whom they haue not heard? and howe shall they heare without a preacher?

15 and how shall they preach unless they are sent? as it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, of those who preach the glad tidings of good things!”

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, Howe beautifull are the feete of them which bring glad tidings of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah saith, “Lord, who hath believed our report?”

But they haue not all obeyed ye Gospel: for Esaias saith, Lord, who hath beleeued our report?

17 Faith then cometh by report, but the report by the word of God.

Then faith is by hearing, and hearing by the worde of God.

18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yea verily, “the sound of their voice is gone forth into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.”

But I demaund, Haue they not heard? No doubt their sound went out through all the earth, and their wordes into the endes of the worlde.

19 But I say, Did not Israel know? Moses first saith, “I will excite your jealousy by what is no nation, and by an ignorant people will I provoke you to wrath.”

But I demaund, Did not Israel knowe God? First Moses sayth, I will prouoke you to enuie by a nation that is not my nation, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.

20 But Isaiah is very bold, and saith, “I have been found by those who sought me not; I have become manifest to those who inquired not after me.”

And Esaias is bolde, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not, and haue bene made manifest to them that asked not after me.

21 But unto Israel he saith, “All the day long have I stretched out my hands unto a people disobedient and contradicting.”

And vnto Israel hee sayth, All the day long haue I stretched foorth mine hand vnto a disobedient, and gainesaying people.
