Romans 10:16-21

16But they did not all pay attention to the good news [of salvation]; for Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”

17So faith comes from hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the [preaching of the] message concerning Christ.

18But I say, did they not hear? Indeed they have; “Their voice [that of creation bearing God’s message] has gone out to all the earth, And their words to the [farthest] ends of the world.”

19But I say, did Israel fail to understand [that the gospel was to go also to the Gentiles]? First Moses says, “I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation (Gentiles); With a nation that lacks understanding I will make you angry.”

20Then Isaiah is very bold and says, “I have been found by those who did not seek Me; I have shown Myself to those who did not [consciously] ask for Me.”

21But of Israel he says, “All day long I have stretched out My hands [in compassion] to a disobedient and obstinate people.”
