Romans 10:8-21

8But whatG5101 does it sayG3004? “1The wordG4487 is nearG1451 you, in your mouthG4750 and in your heartG2588”--that is, the wordG4487 of faithG4102 whichG3739 we are preachingG2784, 92that 3ifG1437 you confessG3670 with your mouthG4750 JesusG2424 as LordG2962, and 4believeG4100 in your heartG2588 that 5GodG2316 raisedG1453 Him from the deadG3498, you will be savedG4982; 10for with the heartG2588 a person believesG4100, 6resultingG1519 in righteousnessG1343, and with the mouthG4750 he confessesG3670, 7resultingG1519 in salvationG4991. 11For the ScriptureG1124 saysG3004, “8WhoeverG3956 believesG4100 in Him will not be 9disappointedG2617.” 12For 10there is noG3756 distinctionG1293 between JewG2453 and GreekG1672; for the sameG846 Lord is 11LordG2962 of 12allG3956, aboundingG4147 in richesG4147 for allG3956 who callG1941 on Him; 13for “13WhoeverG3956 will callG1941 on the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 will be savedG4982.”

14HowG4459 thenG3767 will they callG1941 on Him in whomG3739 they have not believedG4100? HowG4459 will they believeG4100 in Him 14whomG3739 they have not heardG191? And howG4459 will they hearG191 withoutG5565 15a preacherG2784? 15HowG4459 will they preachG2784 unlessG1437G3361 they are sentG649? JustG2509 as it is writtenG1125, “16HowG5613 beautifulG5611 are the feetG4228 of thoseG3588 who 1718bringG2097 goodG2097 newsG2097 of goodG18 thingsG18!”

16HoweverG235, they 19did not allG3956 heedG5219 the 20goodG2098 newsG2098; for IsaiahG2268 saysG3004, “21LordG2962, whoG5101 has believedG4100 our reportG189?” 17SoG686 faithG4102 comes from 22hearingG189, and hearingG189 by 23the wordG4487 24of ChristG5547.

18But I sayG3004, surelyG3361 they have neverG3361G3756 heardG191, have they? IndeedG3304 they have; “25Their voiceG5353 has goneG1831 out into allG3956 the earthG1093, And their wordsG4487 to the endsG4009 of the 26worldG3625.” 19But I sayG3004, surelyG3361 IsraelG2474 did not knowG1097, did they? FirstG4413 MosesG3475 saysG3004, “27I will 28makeG3863 you jealousG3863 by that which is not a nationG1484, By a nationG1484 withoutG801 understandingG801 will I angerG3949 you.” 20And IsaiahG2268 is veryG662 boldG662 and saysG3004, “29I was foundG2147 by thoseG3588 who did not seekG2212 Me, I becameG1096 manifestG1717 to thoseG3588 who did not askG1905 for Me.” 21But as for IsraelG2474 He saysG3004, “30AllG3650 the dayG2250 long I have stretchedG1600 out My handsG5495 to a disobedientG544 and obstinateG483 peopleG2992.”
