romiNaH 10

1 he bhrAtara isrAyelIyalokA yat paritrANaM prApnuvanti tadahaM manasAbhilaSan Izvarasya samIpe prArthaye|

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

2 yata Izvare teSAM ceSTA vidyata ityatrAhaM sAkSyasmi; kintu teSAM sA ceSTA sajJAnA nahi,

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

3 yatasta IzvaradattaM puNyam avijJAya svakRtapuNyaM sthApayitum ceSTamAnA Izvaradattasya puNyasya nighnatvaM na svIkurvvanti|

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

4 khrISTa ekaikavizvAsijanAya puNyaM dAtuM vyavasthAyAH phalasvarUpo bhavati|

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

5 vyavasthApAlanena yat puNyaM tat mUsA varNayAmAsa, yathA, yo janastAM pAlayiSyati sa taddvArA jIviSyati|

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

6 kintu pratyayena yat puNyaM tad etAdRzaM vAkyaM vadati, kaH svargam Aruhya khrISTam avarohayiSyati?

But the righteousness which is by faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down.)

7 ko vA pretalokam avaruhya khrISTaM mRtagaNamadhyAd AneSyatIti vAk manasi tvayA na gaditavyA| (Abyssos g12)

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

8 tarhi kiM bravIti? tad vAkyaM tava samIpastham arthAt tava vadane manasi cAste, tacca vAkyam asmAbhiH pracAryyamANaM vizvAsasya vAkyameva|

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, [even] in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach:

9 vastutaH prabhuM yIzuM yadi vadanena svIkaroSi, tathezvarastaM zmazAnAd udasthApayad iti yadyantaHkaraNena vizvasiSi tarhi paritrANaM lapsyase|

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

10 yasmAt puNyaprAptyartham antaHkaraNena vizvasitavyaM paritrANArthaJca vadanena svIkarttavyaM|

For with the heart man believeth to righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.

11 zAstre yAdRzaM likhati vizvasiSyati yastatra sa jano na trapiSyate|

For the scripture saith, whoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12 ityatra yihUdini tadanyaloke ca kopi vizeSo nAsti yasmAd yaH sarvveSAm advitIyaH prabhuH sa nijayAcakAna sarvvAn prati vadAnyo bhavati|

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

13 yataH, yaH kazcit paramezasya nAmnA hi prArthayiSyate| sa eva manujo nUnaM paritrAto bhaviSyati|

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

14 yaM ye janA na pratyAyan te tamuddizya kathaM prArthayiSyante? ye vA yasyAkhyAnaM kadApi na zrutavantaste taM kathaM pratyeSyanti? aparaM yadi pracArayitAro na tiSThanti tadA kathaM te zroSyanti?

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 yadi vA preritA na bhavanti tadA kathaM pracArayiSyanti? yAdRzaM likhitam Aste, yathA, mAGgalikaM susaMvAdaM dadatyAnIya ye narAH| pracArayanti zAntezca susaMvAdaM janAstu ye| teSAM caraNapadmAni kIdRk zobhAnvitAni hi|

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 kintu te sarvve taM susaMvAdaM na gRhItavantaH| yizAyiyo yathA likhitavAn| asmatpracArite vAkye vizvAsamakaroddhi kaH|

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

17 ataeva zravaNAd vizvAsa aizvaravAkyapracArAt zravaNaJca bhavati|

So then, faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

18 tarhyahaM bravImi taiH kiM nAzrAvi? avazyam azrAvi, yasmAt teSAM zabdo mahIM vyApnod vAkyaJca nikhilaM jagat|

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

19 aparamapi vadAmi, isrAyelIyalokAH kim etAM kathAM na budhyante? prathamato mUsA idaM vAkyaM provAca, ahamuttApayiSye tAn agaNyamAnavairapi| klekSyAmi jAtim etAJca pronmattabhinnajAtibhiH|

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

20 aparaJca yizAyiyo'tizayAkSobheNa kathayAmAsa, yathA, adhi mAM yaistu nAceSTi samprAptastai rjanairahaM| adhi mAM yai rna sampRSTaM vijJAtastai rjanairahaM||

But Isaiah is very bold, and saith, I was found by them that sought me not; I was made manifest to them that asked not for me.

21 kintvisrAyelIyalokAn adhi kathayAJcakAra, yairAjJAlaGghibhi rlokai rviruddhaM vAkyamucyate| tAn pratyeva dinaM kRtsnaM hastau vistArayAmyahaM||

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