Romans 10:14-21

14How are they to call on one they have not believed in? And how are they to believe in one they have not heard of? And how are they to hear without someone preaching to them?

15And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How timely is the arrival of those who proclaim the good news.”

16But not all have obeyed the good news, for Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”

17Consequently faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the preached word of Christ.

18But I ask, have they not heard? Yes, they have: Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

19But again I ask, didn’t Israel understand? First Moses says, “I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; with a senseless nation I will provoke you to anger.”

20And Isaiah is even bold enough to say, “I was found by those who did not seek me; I became well known to those who did not ask for me.”

21But about Israel he says, “All day long I held out my hands to this disobedient and stubborn people!”
