Romans 10:1-13

1BrothersG80 and sisters, my heart’sG2588 desireG2107 and my prayerG1162 to GodG2316 for them is for their salvationG4991. 2For I testifyG3140 about them that they haveG2192 1a zealG2205 for GodG2316, but not inG2596 accordanceG2596 withG2596 knowledgeG1922. 3For not knowingG50 about 2God’sG2316 righteousnessG1343 and 3seekingG2212 to establishG2476 their ownG2398, they did not subjectG5293 themselves to the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316. 4For 4ChristG5547 is the 5endG5056 of the LawG3551 for righteousnessG1343 to 6everyoneG3956 who believesG4100.

5For MosesG3475 writesG1125 of the righteousnessG1343 that is 7basedG1537 on the LawG3551, that the personG444 who performsG4160 8them 9will liveG2198 by 10them. 6But 11the righteousnessG1343 12basedG1537 on faithG4102 speaksG3004 as followsG3779: “13Do not sayG3004 in your heartG2588, ‘WhoG5101 will goG305 upG305 into heavenG3772?’ (that is, to bringG2609 ChristG5547 downG2609), 7orG2228 ‘WhoG5101 will descendG2597 into the 14abyssG12?’ (that is, to 15bringG321 ChristG5547 upG321 from the deadG3498).” 8But whatG5101 does it sayG3004? “16The wordG4487 is nearG1451 you, in your mouthG4750 and in your heartG2588”--that is, the wordG4487 of faithG4102 whichG3739 we are preachingG2784, 917that 18ifG1437 you confessG3670 with your mouthG4750 JesusG2424 as LordG2962, and 19believeG4100 in your heartG2588 that 20GodG2316 raisedG1453 Him from the deadG3498, you will be savedG4982; 10for with the heartG2588 a person believesG4100, 21resultingG1519 inG1519 righteousnessG1343, and with the mouthG4750 he confessesG3670, 22resultingG1519 inG1519 salvationG4991. 11For the ScriptureG1124 saysG3004, “23WhoeverG3956 believesG4100 in Him will not be 24putG2617 toG2617 shameG2617.” 12For 25there is noG3756 distinctionG1293 between JewG2453 and GreekG1672; for the sameG846 Lord is 26LordG2962 of 27allG3956, aboundingG4147 inG4147 richesG4147 for allG3956 who callG1941 onG1941 Him; 13for “28EveryoneG3956 whoG3956 callsG1941 onG1941 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 will be savedG4982.”
