NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Romans 10

The Word of Faith Brings Salvation

1

Brethreng80, my heart'sg2588 desireg2107 and my prayerg1162 to Godg2316 for them is for their salvationg4991.

2

For I testifyg3140 about them that they haveg2192  aa zealg2205b for Godg2316, but not in accordanceg2596 with knowledgeg1922.

3

For not knowingg50 about  aGod'sg2316 righteousnessg1343 and  bseekingg2212 to establishg2476 their owng2398, they did not subjectg5293 themselves to the righteousnessg1343 of Godg2316.

4

For  aChristg5547 is the  1endg5056 of the lawg3551 for righteousnessg1343 to  beveryoneg3956 who believesg4100.

5

For Mosesg3475 writesg1125 that the mang444 who practicesg4160 the righteousnessg1343 which is  1basedg1537 on lawg3551  ashall liveg2198  2by that righteousnessg846.

6

But  athe righteousnessg1343  1basedg1537 on faithg4102 speaksg3004 as followsg3779: " bDO NOT SAYg3004 IN YOUR HEARTg2588, `WHOg5101 WILL ASCENDg305 INTO HEAVENg3772?' (that is, to bringg2609 Christg5547 downg2609),

7

org2228 `WHOg5101 WILL DESCENDg2597 INTO THE  aABYSSg12?' (that is, to  bbringg321 Christg5547 up from the deadg3498)."

8

But whatg5101 does it sayg3004? " aTHE WORDg4487 IS NEARg1451 YOU, IN YOUR MOUTHg4750 AND IN YOUR HEARTg2588"--that is, the wordg4487 of faithg4102 whichg3739 we are preachingg2784,

9

 1that  aifg1437 you confessg3670 with your mouthg4750 Jesusg2424 as Lordg2962, and  bbelieveg4100 in your heartg2588 that  cGodg2316 raisedg1453 Him from the deadg3498, you will be savedg4982;

10

for with the heartg2588 a person believesg4100,  1resultingg1519 in righteousnessg1343, and with the mouthg4750 he confessesg3670,  2resultingg1519 in salvationg4991.

11

For the Scriptureg1124 saysg3004, " aWHOEVERg3956 BELIEVESg4100 IN HIM WILL NOT BE  1DISAPPOINTEDg2617b."

12

For  athere is nog3756 distinctiong1293 between Jewg2453 and Greekg1672; for the sameg846 Lord is  bLordg2962 of  callg3956, aboundingg4147 in richesg4147 for allg3956 who callg1941 on Him;

13

for " aWHOEVERg3956 WILL CALLg1941 ON THE NAMEg3686 OF THE LORDg2962 WILL BE SAVEDg4982."

14

Howg4459 theng3767 will they callg1941 on Him in whomg3739 they have not believedg4100? Howg4459 will they believeg4100 in Him  awhomg3739 they have not heardg191? And howg4459 will they hearg191 withoutg5565  ba preacherg2784?

15

Howg4459 will they preachg2784 unlessg1437g3361 they are sentg649? Justg2509 as it is writteng1125, " aHOWg5613 BEAUTIFULg5611 ARE THE FEETg4228 OF THOSEg3588 WHO  1 bBRINGg2097 GOODg2097 NEWSg2097 OF GOODg18 THINGSg18!"

16

Howeverg235, they  adid not allg3956 heedg5219 the  1goodg2098 newsg2098; for Isaiahg2268 saysg3004, " bLORDg2962, WHOg5101 HAS BELIEVEDg4100 OUR REPORTg189?"

17

Sog686 faithg4102 comes from  ahearingg189, and hearingg189 by  bthe wordg4487  1of Christg5547.

18

But I sayg3004, surelyg3361 they have neverg3361g3756 heardg191, have they? Indeedg3304 they have; " aTHEIR VOICEg5353 HAS GONEg1831 OUT INTO ALLg3956 THE EARTHg1093, AND THEIR WORDSg4487 TO THE ENDSg4009 OF THE  1WORLDg3625."

19

But I sayg3004, surelyg3361 Israelg2474 did not knowg1097, did they? Firstg4413 Mosesg3475 saysg3004, " aI WILL  bMAKEg3863 YOU JEALOUSg3863 BY THAT WHICH IS NOT A NATIONg1484, BY A NATIONg1484 WITHOUTg801 UNDERSTANDINGg801 WILL I ANGERg3949 YOU."

20

And Isaiahg2268 is veryg662 boldg662 and saysg3004, " aI WAS FOUNDg2147 BY THOSEg3588 WHO DID NOT SEEKg2212 ME, I BECAMEg1096 MANIFESTg1717 TO THOSEg3588 WHO DID NOT ASKg1905 FOR ME."

21

But as for Israelg2474 He saysg3004, " aALLg3650 THE DAYg2250 LONG I HAVE STRETCHEDg1600b OUT MY HANDSg5495 TO A DISOBEDIENTg544 AND OBSTINATEg483 PEOPLEg2992."
