1 Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved. WEB — Romans 10:1
2 For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. WEB — Romans 10:2
3 For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn't subject themselves to the righteousness of God. WEB — Romans 10:3
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. WEB — Romans 10:4
5 For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, “The one who does them will live by them.” WEB — Romans 10:5
6 But the righteousness which is of faith says this, “Don't say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down); WEB — Romans 10:6
7 or, ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)” WEB — Romans 10:7
8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;” that is, the word of faith, which we preach: WEB — Romans 10:8
9 that if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. WEB — Romans 10:9
10 For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. WEB — Romans 10:10
11 For the scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.” WEB — Romans 10:11
12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him. WEB — Romans 10:12
13 For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.” WEB — Romans 10:13
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher? WEB — Romans 10:14
15 And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!” WEB — Romans 10:15
16 But they didn't all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?” WEB — Romans 10:16
17 So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. WEB — Romans 10:17
18 But I say, didn't they hear? Yes, most assuredly, “Their sound went out into all the earth, Their words to the ends of the world.” WEB — Romans 10:18
19 But I ask, didn't Israel know? First Moses says, “I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, With a nation void of understanding I will make you angry.” WEB — Romans 10:19
20 Isaiah is very bold, and says, “I was found by those who didn't seek me. I was revealed to those who didn't ask for me.” WEB — Romans 10:20
21 But as to Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people. WEB — Romans 10:21
