Romans 10:6-9

Lexham English Bible

⁶ But the righteousness from faith speaks like this: “Do not say in your heart,^[a] ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’”^[b] (that is, to bring Christ down), ⁷ or “Who will descend into the abyss?”^[c] (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). ⁸ But what does it say? “The word is near to you, in your mouth and in your heart”^[d] (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim), ⁹ that^[e] 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.
