< Romans 10 >

1 Brothers, the pleasure indeed of my heart, and my supplication that [is] to God for Israel, is—for salvation;
Brethren my hertes desyre and prayer to God for Israel is that they might be saved.
2 for I bear them testimony that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge,
For I beare them recorde that they have a fervet mynde to God warde but not accordinge to knowledge.
3 for not knowing the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit to the righteousness of God.
For they are ignoraut of the rightewesnes which is alowed before God and goo about to stablisshe their awne rightewesnes and therfore are not obedient vnto the rightewesnes which is of valew before God.
4 For Christ is an end of law for righteousness to everyone who is believing,
For Christ is the ende of the lawe to iustifie all that beleve.
5 for Moses describes the righteousness that [is] of the Law, that, “The man who did them will live in them,”
Moses describeth the rightewesnes which cometh of ye lawe howe that the man which doth the thinges of the lawe shall lyve therin.
6 and the righteousness of faith thus speaks: “You may not say in your heart, Who will go up to Heaven?” (that is, to bring Christ down)
But ye rightewesnes which cometh of fayth speaketh on this wyse. Saye not in thyne hert who shall ascende into heven? (that is nothinge els then to fetch Christ doune)
7 or, “Who will go down to the abyss?” (that is, to bring up Christ out of the dead). (Abyssos g12)
Other who shall descende into the depe? (that is nothinge els but to fetch vp Christ from deeth) (Abyssos g12)
8 But what does it say? “The saying is near you—in your mouth, and in your heart”: that is, the saying of the faith that we preach;
But what sayth the scripture? The worde is nye the even in thy mouth and in thyn herte. This worde is the worde of fayth which we preache.
9 that if you may confess with your mouth that Jesus [is] LORD, and may believe in your heart that God raised Him out of the dead, you will be saved,
For yf thou shalt knowledge wt thy mouth that Iesus is the lorde and shalt beleve with thyn hert that God raysed him up from deeth thou shalt be safe.
10 for with the heart [one] believes to righteousness, and with the mouth is confession made to salvation;
For the belefe of the hert iustifieth: and to knowledge with the mouth maketh a man safe.
11 for the Writing says, “Everyone who is believing on Him will not be ashamed,”
For the scripture sayth: whosoever beleveth on him shall not be ashamed.
12 for there is no difference between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord of all [is] rich to all those calling on Him,
Ther is no difference bitwene the Iewe and the gentyll. For one is Lorde of all which is ryche vnto all that call on him.
13 for “Everyone who, if he may have called on the Name of the LORD, will be saved.”
For whosoever shall call on the name of the lorde shalbe safe.
14 How then will they call on [Him] in whom they did not believe? And how will they believe [on Him] of whom they did not hear? And how will they hear apart from one preaching?
But how shall they call on him on who they beleved not? how shall they beleve on him of whom they have not herde? how shall they heare with out a preacher?
15 And how will they preach, if they may not be sent? According as it has been written: “How beautiful the feet of those proclaiming good tidings of peace, of those proclaiming good tidings of the good things!”
And how shall they preach except they be sent? As it is written: how beautifull are the fete of them which bringe glad tydynges of peace and bringe glad tydynges of good thinges.
16 But they were not all obedient to the good tidings, for Isaiah says, “LORD, who gave credence to our report?”
But they have not all obeyed to ye gospell. For Esaias sayth: Lorde who shall beleve oure sayinges?
17 So then faith [is] by a report, and the report through a saying of God,
So then fayth cometh by hearynge and hearynge cometh by the worde of God.
18 but I say, did they not hear? Yes, indeed, “their voice went forth to all the earth, and their sayings to the ends of the habitable world.”
But I axe: have they not herde? No dout their sounde went out into all londes: and their wordes in to the endes of the worlde.
19 But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says, “I will provoke you to jealousy by [that which is] not a nation, By an unintelligent nation I will anger you,”
But I demaunde whether Israel dyd knowe or not? Fyrst Moses sayth: I will provoke you for to envy by the that are no people and by a folisshe nacion I will anger you.
20 and Isaiah is very bold and says, “I was found by those not seeking Me; I became visible to those not inquiring after Me”;
Esaias after that is bolde and sayth. I am founde of the that sought me not and have appered to them that axed not after me.
21 and to Israel He says, “All the day I stretched out My hands to a people unbelieving and contradicting.”
And agaynst Israel he sayth: All daye longe have I stretched forth my hondes vnto a people yt beleveth not but speaketh agaynst me.
