Rô-ma 10
New Vietnamese Bible
10 Hỡi anh chị em, lòng tôi ao ước và cầu xin Đức Chúa Trời cho họ được sự cứu rỗi. 2 Vì tôi làm chứng cho họ rằng họ có lòng sốt sắng về Đức Chúa Trời, nhưng không theo sự hiểu biết. 3 Vì không nhận biết sự công chính của Đức Chúa Trời, họ tìm cách thiết lập sự công chính riêng, họ không thuận theo sự công chính của Đức Chúa Trời. 4 Vì Chúa Cứu Thế là sự hoàn tất[a] của Kinh Luật để ban sự công chính cho mọi người tin.
Sự Cứu Rỗi Cho Mọi Người
5 Môi-se có viết về sự công chính nhờ Kinh Luật rằng: Người nào làm những điều này thì sẽ nhờ nó mà sống. 6 Nhưng sự công chính bởi đức tin thì nói thế này: Đừng nói trong lòng ngươi rằng: Ai sẽ lên trời? Ngụ ý để đem Chúa Cứu Thế xuống; 7 Hay là ai sẽ xuống vực sâu? Ngụ ý để đem Chúa Cứu Thế từ cõi chết lên. 8 Nhưng nói gì? “Nói đạo ở gần ngươi, trong miệng ngươi và trong lòng ngươi;”[b] đây là đạo đức tin mà chúng tôi truyền giảng. 9 Vì nếu miệng ngươi xưng nhận Đức Giê-su là Chúa và lòng ngươi tin rằng Đức Chúa Trời đã khiến Ngài từ chết sống lại thì ngươi sẽ được cứu; 10 Vì tin trong lòng thì được sự công chính, và xưng nhận nơi miệng thì được sự cứu rỗi. 11 Kinh Thánh nói rằng: Bất cứ ai tin Ngài sẽ không bị hổ thẹn. Không có sự phân biệt giữa người Do Thái và người Hy Lạp. 12 Vì Ngài là Chúa của tất cả, ban ơn dồi dào cho mọi người kêu cầu Ngài. 13 Tất cả người nào kêu cầu danh Chúa đều được cứu.
14 Nhưng làm sao họ có thể kêu cầu cùng Đấng họ chưa tin? Làm sao họ có thể tin Đấng họ chưa nghe? Làm sao họ có thể nghe khi không có người truyền giảng? 15 Làm sao họ có thể truyền giảng nếu họ không được sai đi? Như Kinh Thánh có chép:
“Bàn chân của người truyền giảng Phúc Âm xinh đẹp biết bao!”[c]
16 Nhưng không phải tất cả mọi người đều vâng theo Phúc Âm. Vì I-sa có nói: “Lạy Chúa! Ai chịu tin lời rao truyền của chúng con?”[d] 17 Vậy, có đức tin là do nghe, và nghe là khi Lời Chúa Cứu Thế được truyền giảng.
18 Nhưng tôi xin hỏi: Họ chưa nghe sao? Không, họ đã nghe rồi, như Kinh Thánh có nói:
“Tiếng chúng vang ra khắp đất
Và lời chúng vang đến tận cùng trần gian.”[e]
19 Tôi lại hỏi: Người Y-sơ-ra-ên chưa biết sao? Trước hết Môi-se có nói:
“Ta sẽ làm các ngươi ghen với một dân không phải là dân,
Ta sẽ làm ngươi tức giận một dân ngu dốt.”[f]
20 I-sa đã mạnh dạn nói rằng:
“Những kẻ không tìm kiếm Ta thì Ta cho gặp,
Ta tỏ mình ra cho những kẻ chẳng cầu hỏi Ta.”[g]
21 Nhưng về dân Y-sơ-ra-ên thì ông nói:
“Suốt cả ngày Ta giang tay
Hướng về một dân bất tuân và chống nghịch.”[h]
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.”

Romans 10
King James Version
10 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
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 without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.
19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.
20 But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.
21 But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
Romans 10
English Standard Version
10 Brothers,[a] my heart's desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness that (A)they have a zeal for God, (B)but not according to knowledge. 3 For, being ignorant of (C)the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 For (D)Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.[b]
The Message of Salvation to All
5 For (E)Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that (F)the person who does the commandments shall live by them. 6 But (G)the righteousness based on faith says, (H)“Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the (I)abyss?’” (that is, (J)to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? (K)“The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); 9 because, if (L)you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and (M)believe in your heart (N)that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. 11 For the Scripture says, (O)“Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” 12 (P)For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; (Q)for the same Lord is Lord of all, (R)bestowing his riches on all who call on him. 13 For (S)“everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him (T)of whom they have never heard?[c] And how are they to hear (U)without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, (V)“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” 16 But (W)they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, (X)“Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?” 17 So (Y)faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
18 But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have, for
19 But I ask, did Israel not understand? First Moses says,
(AB)“I will (AC)make you jealous of those who are not a nation;
with a (AD)foolish nation I will make you angry.”
20 Then Isaiah is so bold as to say,
(AE)“I have been found by those who did not seek me;
I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me.”
21 But of Israel he says, (AF)“All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”
