- 1
- Brethren, the pleasure indeed of my heart, and my supplication that `is' to God for Israel, is -- for salvation;
- 2
- for I bear them testimony that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge,
- 3
- for not knowing the righteousness of God, and their own righteousness seeking to establish, to the righteousness of God they did not submit.
- 4
- For Christ is an end of law for righteousness to every one who is believing,
- 5
- for Moses doth describe the righteousness that `is' of the law, that, `The man who did them shall live in them,'
- 6
- and the righteousness of faith doth thus speak: `Thou mayest not say in thine heart, Who shall go up to the heaven,' that is, Christ to bring down?
- 7
- or, `Who shall go down to the abyss,' that is, Christ out of the dead to bring up.
- 8
- But what doth it say? `Nigh thee is the saying -- in thy mouth, and in thy heart:' that is, the saying of the faith, that we preach;
- 9
- that if thou mayest confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and mayest believe in thy heart that God did raise him out of the dead, thou shalt be saved,
- 10
- for with the heart doth `one' believe to righteousness, and with the mouth is confession made to salvation;
- 11
- for the Writing saith, `Every one who is believing 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 upon Him,
- 13
- for every one -- whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, he shall be saved.'
- 14
- How then shall they call upon `him' in whom they did not believe? and how shall they believe `on him' of whom they did not hear? and how shall they hear apart from one preaching?
- 15
- and how shall they preach, if they may not be sent? according as it hath been written, `How beautiful the feet of those proclaiming good tidings of peace, of those proclaiming good tidings of the good things!'
- 16
- But they were not all obedient to the good tidings, for Isaiah saith, `Lord, who did give credence to our report?'
- 17
- so then the faith `is' by a report, and the report through a saying of God,
- 18
- but I say, Did they not hear? yes, indeed -- `to all the earth their voice went forth, and to the ends of the habitable world their sayings.'
- 19
- But I say, Did not Israel know? first Moses saith, `I will provoke you to jealousy by `that which is' not a nation; by an unintelligent nation I will anger you,'
- 20
- and Isaiah is very bold, and saith, `I was found by those not seeking Me; I became manifest to those not inquiring after Me;'
- 21
- and unto Israel He saith, `All the day I did stretch out My hands unto a people unbelieving and gainsaying.'
