Romans 10
Robinson-Pierpont Byzantine Textform · Berean Standard Bible
Ἀδελφοί, ἡ μὲν εὐδοκία τῆς ἐμῆς καρδίας καὶ ἡ δέησις ἡ πρὸς τὸν θεὸν ὑπὲρ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ ἐστιν εἰς σωτηρίαν.
Brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is for their salvation.
Μαρτυρῶ γὰρ αὐτοῖς ὅτι ζῆλον θεοῦ ἔχουσιν, ἀλλ’ οὐ κατ’ ἐπίγνωσιν.
For I testify about them that they are zealous for God, but not on the basis of knowledge.
Ἀγνοοῦντες γὰρ τὴν τοῦ θεοῦ δικαιοσύνην, καὶ τὴν ἰδίαν δικαιοσύνην ζητοῦντες στῆσαι, τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ τοῦ θεοῦ οὐχ ὑπετάγησαν.
Because they were ignorant of God’s righteousness and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.
Τέλος γὰρ νόμου χριστὸς εἰς δικαιοσύνην παντὶ τῷ πιστεύοντι.
For Christ is the end of the law, to bring righteousness to everyone who believes.
Μωϋσῆς γὰρ γράφει τὴν δικαιοσύνην τὴν ἐκ τοῦ νόμου, ὅτι ὁ ποιήσας αὐτὰ ἄνθρωπος ζήσεται ἐν αὐτοῖς.
For concerning the righteousness that is by the law, Moses writes: “The man who does these things will live by them (note: Leviticus 18:5; see also Ezekiel 20:11, 13, and 21.).”
Ἡ δὲ ἐκ πίστεως δικαιοσύνη οὕτως λέγει, Μὴ εἴπῃς ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου, Τίς ἀναβήσεται εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν;- τοῦτ’ ἔστιν χριστὸν καταγαγεῖν-
But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven (note: Deuteronomy 30:12)?’ (that is, to bring Christ down)
ἤ, Τίς καταβήσεται εἰς τὴν ἄβυσσον;- τοῦτ’ ἔστιν χριστὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναγαγεῖν.
or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss (note: See Deuteronomy 30:13.)?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).”
Ἀλλὰ τί λέγει; Ἐγγύς σου τὸ ῥῆμά ἐστιν, ἐν τῷ στόματί σου καὶ ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου· τοῦτ’ ἔστιν τὸ ῥῆμα τῆς πίστεως ὃ κηρύσσομεν·
But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart (note: Deuteronomy 30:14),” that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming:
ὅτι ἐὰν ὁμολογήσῃς ἐν τῷ στόματί σου κύριον Ἰησοῦν, καὶ πιστεύσῃς ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου ὅτι ὁ θεὸς αὐτὸν ἤγειρεν ἐκ νεκρῶν, σωθήσῃ·
that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
καρδίᾳ γὰρ πιστεύεται εἰς δικαιοσύνην, στόματι δὲ ὁμολογεῖται εἰς σωτηρίαν.
For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved.
Λέγει γὰρ ἡ γραφή, Πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων ἐπ’ αὐτῷ οὐ καταισχυνθήσεται.
It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame (note: Isaiah 28:16 (see also LXX)).”
Οὐ γάρ ἐστιν διαστολὴ Ἰουδαίου τε καὶ Ἕλληνος· ὁ γὰρ αὐτὸς κύριος πάντων, πλουτῶν εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἐπικαλουμένους αὐτόν.
For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him,
Πᾶς γὰρ ὃς ἂν ἐπικαλέσηται τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου σωθήσεται.
for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved (note: Joel 2:32).”
Πῶς οὖν ἐπικαλέσονται εἰς ὃν οὐκ ἐπίστευσαν; Πῶς δὲ πιστεύσουσιν οὗ οὐκ ἤκουσαν; Πῶς δὲ ἀκούσουσιν χωρὶς κηρύσσοντος;
How then can they call on the One in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach?
Πῶς δὲ κηρύξουσιν ἐὰν μὴ ἀποσταλῶσιν; Καθὼς γέγραπται, Ὡς ὡραῖοι οἱ πόδες τῶν εὐαγγελιζομένων εἰρήνην, τῶν εὐαγγελιζομένων τὰ ἀγαθά.
And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
Ἀλλ’ οὐ πάντες ὑπήκουσαν τῷ εὐαγγελίῳ. Ἠσαΐας γὰρ λέγει, Κύριε, τίς ἐπίστευσεν τῇ ἀκοῇ ἡμῶν;
But not all of them welcomed the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message (note: Isaiah 53:1)?”
Ἄρα ἡ πίστις ἐξ ἀκοῆς, ἡ δὲ ἀκοὴ διὰ ῥήματος θεοῦ.
Consequently, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
Ἀλλὰ λέγω, μὴ οὐκ ἤκουσαν; Μενοῦνγε· Εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἐξῆλθεν ὁ φθόγγος αὐτῶν, καὶ εἰς τὰ πέρατα τῆς οἰκουμένης τὰ ῥήματα αὐτῶν.
But I ask, did they not hear? Indeed they did: “Their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world (note: Psalm 19:4 (see also LXX)).”
Ἀλλὰ λέγω, μὴ οὐκ ἔγνω Ἰσραήλ; Πρῶτος Μωϋσῆς λέγει, Ἐγὼ παραζηλώσω ὑμᾶς ἐπ’ οὐκ ἔθνει, ἐπὶ ἔθνει ἀσυνέτῳ παροργιῶ ὑμᾶς.
I ask instead, did Israel not understand? First, Moses says: “I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation without understanding (note: Deuteronomy 32:21 (see also LXX)).”
Ἠσαΐας δὲ ἀποτολμᾷ καὶ λέγει, Εὑρέθην τοῖς ἐμὲ μὴ ζητοῦσιν, ἐμφανὴς ἐγενόμην τοῖς ἐμὲ μὴ ἐπερωτῶσιν.
And Isaiah boldly says: “I was found by those who did not seek Me (note: Isaiah 65:1); I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me.”
Πρὸς δὲ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ λέγει, Ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν ἐξεπέτασα τὰς χεῖράς μου πρὸς λαὸν ἀπειθοῦντα καὶ ἀντιλέγοντα.
But as for Israel he says: “All day long I have held out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people (note: Isaiah 65:2 (see also LXX)).”
