8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”[a] (that is, the word of faith that we preach), 9 because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord[b] and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and thus has righteousness[c] and with the mouth one confesses and thus has salvation.[d]
