羅馬書 10
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
10 弟兄姊妹,我心裡切望並向上帝祈求的,就是以色列人能夠得救。 2 我可以證明,他們對上帝有熱心,但不是基於真知。 3 他們不知道上帝所賜的義,想努力建立自己的義,不肯服從上帝的義。 4 其實基督是律法的終極目的,使所有信靠祂的人都可以得到義。
求告主名的都必得救
5 關於律法的義,摩西寫道:「人若遵行律法的誡命,就必活著。」 6 但是論到以信心為基礎的義,聖經上說:「不要心裡說,『誰要升到天上去呢?』意思是誰要把基督領下來, 7 或說,『誰要下到陰間去呢?』意思是誰要把基督從死人中領上來。」 8 其實這裡是說:「這道近在咫尺,就在你口裡,在你心中。」這道就是我們所傳的信主之道。 9 你若口裡承認耶穌是主,心裡相信上帝使祂從死裡復活,就必得救。 10 因為人心裡相信,就可以被稱為義人,口裡承認,就可以得救。 11 正如聖經上說:「信靠祂的人必不致蒙羞。」 12 猶太人和希臘人並沒有分別,因為主是所有人的主,祂厚待所有求告祂的人, 13 因爲「凡求告主名的都必得救。」
14 可是,人還沒信祂,怎能求告祂呢?還沒聽說過祂,怎能信祂呢?沒有人傳道,怎能聽說過祂呢? 15 人沒有受差遣,怎能傳道呢?正如聖經上說:「那傳福音之人的腳蹤是何等佳美!」 16 只是並非人人都信福音,就像以賽亞先知所說的:「主啊!誰相信我們所傳的呢?」
17 由此可見,聽了道,才會信道;有了基督的話,才有道可聽。 18 但我要問,以色列人沒有聽過嗎?當然聽過。因爲
「他們的聲音傳遍天下,
他們的話語傳到地極。」
19 我再問,難道以色列人不知道嗎?首先,摩西說:
「我要藉無名之民挑起你們的嫉妒,
用愚昧的國民激起你們的怒氣。」
20 後來,以賽亞先知又放膽地說:
「我讓沒有尋找我的人尋見,
我向沒有求問我的人顯現。」
21 至於以色列人,他說:
「我整天伸出雙手招呼那悖逆頑固的百姓。」
Romans 10
New King James Version
Israel Needs the Gospel
10 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for [a]Israel is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness (A)that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of (B)God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own (C)righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God. 4 For (D)Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
5 For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law, (E)“The man who does those things shall live by them.” 6 But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, (F)“Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ down from above) 7 or, (G)“ ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? (H)“The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that (I)if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, (J)“Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For (K)there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for (L)the same Lord over all (M)is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For (N)“whoever calls (O)on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Israel Rejects the Gospel
14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear (P)without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written:
(Q)“How beautiful are the feet of those who [b]preach the gospel of peace,
Who bring glad tidings of good things!”
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, (R)“Lord, who has believed our report?” 17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
18 But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:
(S)“Their sound has gone out to all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the world.”
19 But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says:
(T)“I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation,
I will move you to anger by a (U)foolish nation.”
20 But Isaiah is very bold and says:
(V)“I was found by those who did not seek Me;
I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me.”
21 But to Israel he says:
(W)“All day long I have stretched out My hands
To a disobedient and contrary people.”
