< Προς Ρωμαιους 10 >
1 Ἀδελφοί, ἡ μὲν εὐδοκία τῆς ἐμῆς καρδίας καὶ ἡ ⸀δέησιςπρὸς τὸν θεὸν ὑπὲρ ⸀αὐτῶνεἰς σωτηρίαν.
Brethren, indeed the desire of my heart and my prayer to God in their behalf, is for their salvation.
2 μαρτυρῶ γὰρ αὐτοῖς ὅτι ζῆλον θεοῦ ἔχουσιν· ἀλλʼ οὐ κατʼ ἐπίγνωσιν,
For I testify to them, that they have a zeal of God, but not according to perfect knowledge;
3 ἀγνοοῦντες γὰρ τὴν τοῦ θεοῦ δικαιοσύνην, καὶ τὴν ⸀ἰδίανζητοῦντες στῆσαι, τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ τοῦ θεοῦ οὐχ ὑπετάγησαν·
for being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they have not submitted to the righteousness of God.
4 τέλος γὰρ νόμου Χριστὸς εἰς δικαιοσύνην παντὶ τῷ πιστεύοντι.
For Christ is the end of the law unto righteousness to every one who believes.
5 Μωϋσῆς γὰρ γράφει ⸂ὅτι τὴν δικαιοσύνην τὴν ἐκ ⸀τοῦ νόμου ὁ ⸀ποιήσας ἄνθρωπος ζήσεται ἐν ⸀αὐτῇ.
For Moses describes the righteousness which is of the law, that the man having done this shall live in it.
6 ἡ δὲ ἐκ πίστεως δικαιοσύνη οὕτως λέγει· Μὴ εἴπῃς ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου· Τίς ἀναβήσεται εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν; τοῦτʼ ἔστιν Χριστὸν καταγαγεῖν·
But the righteousness of faith speaks thus, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend up into heaven? that is, to bring Christ down:
7 ἤ· Τίς καταβήσεται εἰς τὴν ἄβυσσον; τοῦτʼ ἔστιν Χριστὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναγαγεῖν. (Abyssos )
or, Who shall descend into the abyss? that is, to bring him up from the dead. (Abyssos )
8 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.
But what says it? The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach.
9 ὅτι ἐὰν ⸀ὁμολογήσῃςἐν τῷ στόματί ⸀σουκύριον Ἰησοῦν, καὶ πιστεύσῃς ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου ὅτι ὁ θεὸς αὐτὸν ἤγειρεν ἐκ νεκρῶν, σωθήσῃ·
That if you may confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and may believe with your heart that God raised him from the dead, you shall be saved:
10 καρδίᾳ γὰρ πιστεύεται εἰς δικαιοσύνην, στόματι δὲ ὁμολογεῖται εἰς σωτηρίαν·
for with the heart it is believed unto righteousness; and with the mouth it is confessed unto salvation.
11 λέγει γὰρ ἡ γραφή· Πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων ἐπʼ αὐτῷ οὐ καταισχυνθήσεται.
For the scripture says, Every one believing on him shall not be ashamed.
12 οὐ γάρ ἐστιν διαστολὴ Ἰουδαίου τε καὶ Ἕλληνος, ὁ γὰρ αὐτὸς κύριος πάντων, πλουτῶν εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἐπικαλουμένους αὐτόν·
For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: for the same is Lord of all, rich unto all that call on him.
13 Πᾶς γὰρ ὃς ἂν ἐπικαλέσηται τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου σωθήσεται.
For every one who may call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 Πῶς οὖν ⸀ἐπικαλέσωνταιεἰς ὃν οὐκ ἐπίστευσαν; πῶς δὲ ⸀πιστεύσωσινοὗ οὐκ ἤκουσαν; πῶς δὲ ⸀ἀκούσωσινχωρὶς κηρύσσοντος;
Then how can they call on him on whom they have not believed? and how can they believe on him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15 πῶς δὲ ⸀κηρύξωσινἐὰν μὴ ἀποσταλῶσιν; ⸀καθὼςγέγραπται· Ὡς ὡραῖοι οἱ πόδες τῶν ⸀εὐαγγελιζομένων⸀τὰἀγαθά.
And how can they preach, unless they may be sent forth? as has been written, How beautiful are the feet of those, who preach the gospel of good things!
16 ἀλλʼ οὐ πάντες ὑπήκουσαν τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ· Ἠσαΐας γὰρ λέγει· Κύριε, τίς ἐπίστευσεν τῇ ἀκοῇ ἡμῶν;
But they have not all heard the gospel. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report?
17 ἄρα ἡ πίστις ἐξ ἀκοῆς, ἡ δὲ ἀκοὴ διὰ ῥήματος ⸀Χριστοῦ
Then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
18 Ἀλλὰ λέγω, μὴ οὐκ ἤκουσαν; μενοῦνγε· Εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἐξῆλθεν ὁ φθόγγος αὐτῶν, καὶ εἰς τὰ πέρατα τῆς οἰκουμένης τὰ ῥήματα αὐτῶν.
But I say, Have they not all heard? Yea, truly, Their sound has gone out into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.
19 ἀλλὰ λέγω, μὴ ⸂Ἰσραὴλ οὐκ ἔγνω; πρῶτος Μωϋσῆς λέγει· Ἐγὼ παραζηλώσω ὑμᾶς ἐπʼ οὐκ ἔθνει, ἐπʼ ἔθνει ἀσυνέτῳ παροργιῶ ὑμᾶς.
But I say, Whether does not Israel know? Moses first says, I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, and with a nation void of understanding I will anger you.
20 Ἠσαΐας δὲ ἀποτολμᾷ καὶ λέγει· Εὑρέθην ⸀ἐντοῖς ἐμὲ μὴ ζητοῦσιν, ἐμφανὴς ⸀ἐγενόμηντοῖς ἐμὲ μὴ ἐπερωτῶσιν.
But Isaiah is bold, and says, I was found by those not seeking after me; and made manifest to those not inquiring after me.
21 πρὸς δὲ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ λέγει· Ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν ἐξεπέτασα τὰς χεῖράς μου πρὸς λαὸν ἀπειθοῦντα καὶ ἀντιλέγοντα.
But to Israel he says, All day long have I reached forth my hands to a gainsaying and disobedient people.
