Romans 10
1 Brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
Ἀδελφοί, ἡ μὲν εὐδοκία τῆς ἐμῆς καρδίας, καὶ ἡ δέησις πρὸς τὸν ˚Θεὸν, ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν εἰς σωτηρίαν.
2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
Μαρτυρῶ γὰρ αὐτοῖς ὅτι ζῆλον ˚Θεοῦ ἔχουσιν, ἀλλʼ οὐ κατʼ ἐπίγνωσιν.
3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God.
Ἀγνοοῦντες γὰρ τὴν τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ δικαιοσύνην, καὶ τὴν ἰδίαν ζητοῦντες στῆσαι, τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ οὐχ ὑπετάγησαν.
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes.
Τέλος γὰρ νόμου ˚Χριστὸς, εἰς δικαιοσύνην παντὶ τῷ πιστεύοντι.
5 For Moses describes the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which does those things shall live by them.
Μωϋσῆς γὰρ γράφει τὴν δικαιοσύνην τὴν ἐκ νόμου, ὅτι “Ὁ ποιήσας αὐτὰ ἄνθρωπος, ζήσεται ἐν αὐτῇ.”
6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaks on this wise, Say not in your heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above: )
Ἡ δὲ ἐκ πίστεως δικαιοσύνη οὕτως λέγει, “Μὴ εἴπῃς ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου, ‘Τίς ἀναβήσεται εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν;’” (Τοῦτʼ ἔστιν ˚Χριστὸν καταγαγεῖν),
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) (Abyssos g12)
ἤ, “‘Τίς καταβήσεται εἰς τὴν Ἄβυσσον;’” (Τοῦτʼ ἔστιν ˚Χριστὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναγαγεῖν). (Abyssos g12)
8 But what says it? The word is near you, even in your mouth, and in your heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
Ἀλλὰ τί λέγει; “Ἐγγύς σου τὸ ῥῆμά ἐστιν, ἐν τῷ στόματί σου, καὶ ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου”, τοῦτʼ ἔστιν τὸ ῥῆμα τῆς πίστεως ὃ κηρύσσομεν.
9 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.
Ὅτι ἐὰν ὁμολογήσῃς ἐν τῷ στόματί σου, “˚Κύριον ˚Ἰησοῦν”, καὶ πιστεύσῃς ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου ὅτι ὁ ˚Θεὸς αὐτὸν ἤγειρεν ἐκ νεκρῶν, σωθήσῃ.
10 For with the heart man believes to righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.
Καρδίᾳ γὰρ πιστεύεται εἰς δικαιοσύνην, στόματι δὲ ὁμολογεῖται εἰς σωτηρίαν.
11 For the scripture says, Whoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.
Λέγει γὰρ ἡ Γραφή, “Πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων ἐπʼ αὐτῷ οὐ καταισχυνθήσεται.”
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich to all that call on him.
Οὐ γάρ ἐστιν διαστολὴ Ἰουδαίου τε καὶ Ἕλληνος, ὁ γὰρ αὐτὸς ˚Κύριος πάντων, πλουτῶν εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἐπικαλουμένους αὐτόν.
13 For whoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
“Πᾶς” γὰρ “ὃς ἂν ἐπικαλέσηται τὸ ὄνομα ˚Κυρίου, σωθήσεται.”
14 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?
Πῶς οὖν ἐπικαλέσωνται εἰς ὃν οὐκ ἐπίστευσαν; Πῶς δὲ πιστεύσωσιν οὗ οὐκ ἤκουσαν; Πῶς δὲ ἀκούσωσιν χωρὶς κηρύσσοντος;
15 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!
Πῶς δὲ κηρύξωσιν ἐὰν μὴ ἀποσταλῶσιν; Καθὼς γέγραπται, “Ὡς ὡραῖοι οἱ πόδες τῶν εὐαγγελιζομένων ἀγαθά!”
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report?
Ἀλλʼ οὐ πάντες ὑπήκουσαν τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ. Ἠσαΐας γὰρ λέγει, “˚Κύριε, τίς ἐπίστευσεν τῇ ἀκοῇ ἡμῶν;”
17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Ἄρα ἡ πίστις ἐξ ἀκοῆς, ἡ δὲ ἀκοὴ διὰ ῥήματος ˚Χριστοῦ.
18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes truly, their sound went into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
Ἀλλὰ λέγω, μὴ οὐκ ἤκουσαν; Μενοῦνγε, “Εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν, ἐξῆλθεν ὁ φθόγγος αὐτῶν, καὶ εἰς τὰ πέρατα τῆς οἰκουμένης, τὰ ῥήματα αὐτῶν.”
19 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.
Ἀλλὰ λέγω, μὴ Ἰσραὴλ οὐκ ἔγνω; Πρῶτος Μωϋσῆς λέγει, “Ἐγὼ παραζηλώσω ὑμᾶς, ἐπʼ οὐκ ἔθνει, ἐπʼ ἔθνει ἀσυνέτῳ, παροργιῶ ὑμᾶς.”
20 But Isaiah is very bold, and said, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest to them that asked not after me.
Ἠσαΐας δὲ ἀποτολμᾷ καὶ λέγει, “Εὑρέθην ἐν τοῖς ἐμὲ μὴ ζητοῦσιν, ἐμφανὴς ἐγενόμην τοῖς ἐμὲ μὴ ἐπερωτῶσιν.”
21 But to Israel he says, All day long I have stretched forth my hands to a disobedient and gainsaying people.
Πρὸς δὲ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ λέγει, “Ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν, ἐξεπέτασα τὰς χεῖράς μου πρὸς λαὸν ἀπειθοῦντα καὶ ἀντιλέγοντα.”
