1 Brothers, the pleasure indeed of my heart, and my supplication that [is] to God for Israel, is—for salvation; Brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved. Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved.
2 for I bear them testimony that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge, For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on 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, being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness. Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.
4 For Christ is an end of law for righteousness to everyone who is believing, For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Christ is the culmination of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 for Moses describes the righteousness that [is] of the Law, that, “The man who did them will live in them,” For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that the person who does the commandments shall live by them. Moses writes this about the righteousness that is by the law: “The person who does these things will live by them.”
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 the righteousness based on faith says, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down)
7 or, “Who will go down to the abyss?” (that is, to bring up Christ out of the dead). “or ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). “or ‘Who will descend into the deep?’” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).
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 does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim:
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, because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 for with the heart [one] believes to righteousness, and with the mouth is confession made to salvation; For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
11 for the Writing says, “Everyone who is believing on Him will not be ashamed,” For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”
12 for there is no difference between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord of all [is] rich to all those calling on Him, For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him,
13 for “Everyone who, if he may have called on the Name of the LORD, will be saved.” For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
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? How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?
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 are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
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 the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?” But not all the Israelites accepted the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”
17 So then faith [is] by a report, and the report through a saying of God, So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
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 ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have, for “Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.” But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did: “Their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”
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 ask, did Israel not understand? First Moses says, “I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry.” Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says, “I will make you envious by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding.”
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”; Then Isaiah is so bold as to say, “I have been found by those who did not seek me; I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me.” And Isaiah boldly says, “I was found by those who did not seek me; I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me.”
21 and to Israel He says, “All the day I stretched out My hands to a people unbelieving and contradicting.” But of Israel he says, “All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.” But concerning Israel he says, “All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and obstinate people.”
