Roma 10
Magandang Balita Biblia
10 Mga kapatid, ang pinakananais ng puso ko at idinadalangin ko sa Diyos ay ang maligtas ang Israel. 2 Sapagkat saksi ako na sila'y masigasig na maging kalugud-lugod sa Diyos. Hindi nga lamang batay sa tamang kaalaman. 3 Dahil hindi nila kinilala ang pamamaraan ng Diyos upang gawing matuwid ang tao, at nagsikap silang gumawa ng sarili nilang pamamaraan; hindi sila nagpasakop sa pamamaraang itinakda ng Diyos. 4 Sapagkat si Cristo ang kaganapan ng Kautusan, upang ituring na matuwid ng Diyos ang sinumang sumasampalataya sa kanya.
Ang Kaligtasan ay para sa Lahat
5 Ganito(A) ang isinulat ni Moises tungkol sa pagiging matuwid batay sa Kautusan, “Ang tumutupad sa Kautusan ay mabubuhay ayon dito.” 6 Ngunit(B) ganito naman ang sinasabi tungkol sa pagiging matuwid batay sa pananampalataya, “Huwag mong sabihin sa iyong sarili, ‘Sino ang aakyat sa langit?’” upang pababain si Cristo. 7 “Huwag mo ring sabihin, ‘Sino ang bababâ sa kailaliman?’” upang muling buhayin si Cristo. 8 Sapagkat ganito ang sinasabi, “Malapit sa iyo ang mensahe, nasa iyong bibig at nasa iyong puso.” Ang tinutukoy dito'y ang salitang ipinapangaral namin tungkol sa pananampalataya. 9 Kung ipahahayag ng iyong bibig na si Jesus ay Panginoon at buong puso kang sasampalataya na siya'y muling binuhay ng Diyos, maliligtas ka. 10 Sapagkat sumasampalataya ang tao sa pamamagitan ng kanyang puso at sa gayon ay itinuturing na matuwid ng Diyos. Nagpapahayag naman siya sa pamamagitan ng kanyang bibig at sa gayon ay naliligtas. 11 Sinabi(C) nga ng kasulatan, “Ang sinumang sumasampalataya sa kanya ay hindi mapapahiya.” 12 Kaya't walang pagkakaiba ang katayuan ng Judio at ng Hentil. Iisa ang Panginoon ng lahat at siya'y masaganang nagbibigay sa lahat ng tumatawag sa kanya, 13 dahil(D) sinasabi sa kasulatan, “Maliligtas ang lahat ng tumatawag sa pangalan ng Panginoon.”
14 Paano naman sila tatawag sa kanya kung hindi sila sumasampalataya? Paano sila sasampalataya kung wala pa silang napakinggan tungkol sa kanya? Paano naman sila makakapakinig kung walang mangangaral sa kanila? 15 At(E) paanong makakapangaral ang sinuman kung hindi siya isinugo? Tulad ng nasusulat, “O kay gandang pagmasdan ang pagdating ng mga nagdadala ng Magandang Balita!” 16 Ngunit(F) hindi lahat ay sumunod sa Magandang Balita, gaya ng sinulat ni Isaias, “Panginoon, sino ang naniwala sa aming ibinalita?” 17 Kaya't ang pananampalataya ay bunga ng pakikinig, at ang pakikinig naman ay bunga ng pangangaral tungkol kay Cristo.
18 Subalit(G) ang tanong ko'y ganito: Hindi kaya sila nakapakinig? Oo, sila'y nakapakinig! Sapagkat nasusulat,
“Abot sa lahat ng dako ang kanilang tinig,
ang sinasabi nila'y nakarating hanggang sa dulo ng daigdig.”
19 Ito(H) pa ang isa kong tanong: Hindi kaya nakaunawa ang bansang Israel? Noon pa man ay sinabi na ni Moises,
“Gagamitin ko ang mga taong di man lamang isang bansa
upang kayo'y inggitin,
gagamitin ko ang isang bansang hangal
upang kayo'y galitin.”
20 Buong(I) tapang namang ipinahayag ni Isaias,
“Natagpuan ako ng mga hindi naghanap sa akin.
Nagpahayag ako sa mga hindi nag-usisa tungkol sa akin.”
21 Subalit(J) tungkol naman sa Israel ay sinabi niya,
“Buong maghapon akong nanawagan
sa isang suwail at mapaghimagsik na bayan!”
Romans 10
New International Version
10 Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire(A) and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous(B) for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.(C) 4 Christ is the culmination of the law(D) so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.(E)
5 Moses writes this about the righteousness that is by the law: “The person who does these things will live by them.”[a](F) 6 But the righteousness that is by faith(G) says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’”[b](H) (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the deep?’”[c](I) (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).(J) 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,”[d](K) that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: 9 If you declare(L) with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,”(M) and believe(N) in your heart that God raised him from the dead,(O) you will be saved.(P) 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”[e](Q) 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile(R)—the same Lord is Lord of all(S) and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord(T) will be saved.”[f](U)
14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”[g](V)
16 But not all the Israelites accepted the good news.(W) For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”[h](X) 17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message,(Y) and the message is heard through the word about Christ.(Z) 18 But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did:
19 Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says,
“I will make you envious(AB) by those who are not a nation;
I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding.”[j](AC)
20 And Isaiah boldly says,
“I was found by those who did not seek me;
I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me.”[k](AD)
21 But concerning Israel he says,

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.”

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.

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.”
