1 Brothers, 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 seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit to the righteousness of God.

4 For Christ is an end of law for righteousness to everyone who is believing,

5 for Moses describes the righteousness that [is] of the Law, that, “The man who did them will live in 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)

7 or, “Who will go down to the abyss?” (that is, to bring up Christ out of the dead).
