Romans 10:5-13
New American Standard Bible
5 For Moses writes of the righteousness that is [a]based on the Law, that the person who performs [b]them (A)will live by [c]them. 6 But (B)the righteousness [d]based on faith speaks as follows: “(C)Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will go up into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down), 7 or ‘Who will descend into the (D)abyss?’ (that is, to (E)bring Christ up from the dead).” 8 But what does it say? “(F)The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, 9 [e]that (G)if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and (H)believe in your heart that (I)God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for with the heart a person believes, [f]resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, [g]resulting in salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “(J)Whoever believes in Him will not be [h]put to shame.” 12 For (K)there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is (L)Lord of (M)all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; 13 for “(N)Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

American Standard Version
5 For Moses writeth that [a]the man that doeth the righteousness which is of the law shall live thereby. 6 But the righteousness which is of faith saith thus, [b]Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down:) 7 or, Who shall descend into the abyss? (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.) 8 But what saith it? [c]The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach: 9 [d]because if thou shalt [e]confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God 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, [f]Whosoever believeth on him shall not be put to shame. 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek: for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich unto all that call upon him: 13 for, [g]Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
