Romanos 10
La Biblia de las Américas
10 Hermanos, el deseo de mi corazón y mi oración a Dios por ellos[a] es para su salvación. 2 Porque yo testifico a su favor de que tienen celo de Dios(A), pero no conforme a un pleno conocimiento. 3 Pues desconociendo la justicia de Dios y procurando establecer la suya propia(B), no se sometieron a la justicia de Dios(C). 4 Porque Cristo es el fin[b] de la ley para justicia a todo aquel que cree(D).
Cómo ser salvo
5 Porque Moisés escribe que el hombre que practica la justicia que es de la ley, vivirá por ella(E). 6 Pero la justicia que es de la fe(F), dice así: No digas en tu corazón: «¿Quién subirá al cielo(G)?» (esto es, para hacer bajar a Cristo), 7 o «¿Quién descenderá al abismo(H)?» (esto es, para subir a Cristo de entre los muertos(I)). 8 Mas, ¿qué dice? Cerca de ti está la palabra, en tu boca y en tu corazón(J), es decir, la palabra de fe que predicamos: 9 que si confiesas con tu boca a Jesús por Señor(K), y crees en tu corazón que Dios le resucitó de entre los muertos, serás salvo(L); 10 porque con el corazón se cree para justicia, y con la boca se confiesa para salvación. 11 Pues la Escritura dice: Todo el que cree en Él no será avergonzado(M). 12 Porque no hay distinción entre judío y griego(N), pues el mismo Señor es Señor de todos(O), abundando en riquezas para todos los que le invocan; 13 porque: Todo aquel que invoque el nombre del Señor será salvo(P). 14 ¿Cómo, pues, invocarán a aquel en quien no han creído? ¿Y cómo creerán en aquel de[c] quien no han oído(Q)? ¿Y cómo oirán sin haber quien les predique(R)? 15 ¿Y cómo predicarán si no son enviados? Tal como está escrito: ¡Cuan hermosos son los pies[d] de los que anuncian el evangelio del bien[e](S)!
Israel rechaza el evangelio
16 Sin embargo, no todos hicieron caso al evangelio(T), porque Isaías dice: Señor, ¿quién ha creído a nuestro anuncio(U)? 17 Así que la fe viene del oír(V), y el oír, por la palabra de Cristo[f](W). 18 Pero yo digo, ¿acaso nunca han oído? Ciertamente que sí:
19 Y añado[h]: ¿Acaso Israel no sabía? En primer lugar, Moisés dice:
Yo os provocaré a celos con un pueblo que no es pueblo;
con un pueblo sin entendimiento os provocaré a ira(Y).
20 E Isaías es muy osado, y dice:
21 Pero en cuanto a Israel, dice: Todo el día he extendido mis manos a un pueblo desobediente y rebelde(AA).

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.”

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.”
