Sha'ul's Letter to the Romans, Chapter 10
{10:1} Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for
Yisra'el, that they may be saved. {10:2} For I testify about them that
they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. {10:3} For
being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their
own righteousness, they didn't subject themselves to the righteousness
of God. {10:4} For Messiah is the fulfillment of the law for
righteousness to everyone who believes. {10:5} For Moshe writes about
the righteousness of the law, "The one who does them will live by
them." {10:6} But the righteousness which is of faith says this,
"Don't say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?' (that is, to
bring Messiah down); {10:7} or, 'Who will descend into the abyss?'
(that is, to bring Messiah up from the dead.)" {10:8} But what does it
say? "The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;" that
is, the word of faith, which we preach: {10:9} that if you will
confess with your mouth the Lord Yeshua, and believe in your heart
that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. {10:10} For with
the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation. {10:11} For the Scripture says,
"Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed."
{10:12} For there is no distinction between Yehudi and Yevanit; for
the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.
{10:13} For, "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be
saved." {10:14} How then will they call on him in whom they have not
believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How
will they hear without a preacher? {10:15} And how will they preach
unless they are sent? As it is written:
"How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of
shalom,
Who bring glad tidings of good things!"
{10:16} But they didn't all listen to the glad news. For Yesha`yahu
says, "Lord, who has believed our report?" {10:17} So faith comes by
hearing, and hearing by the word of God. {10:18} But I say, didn't
they hear? Yes, most assuredly,
"Their sound went out into all the [1>]eretz[<1],
Their words to the ends of the world."
{10:19} But I ask, didn't Yisra'el know? First Moshe says,
"I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation,
With a nation void of understanding I will make you angry."
{10:20} Yesha`yahu is very bold, and says,
"I was found by those who didn't seek me.
I was revealed to those who didn't ask for me."
{10:21} But as to Yisra'el he says, "All day long I stretched out my
hands to a disobedient and contrary people."
