10 for with the heart a person believes, [a]resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, [b]resulting in salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “(A)Whoever believes in Him will not be [c]disappointed.” 12 For (B)there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is (C)Lord of (D)all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; 13 for “(E)Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

14 How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him (F)whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without (G)a preacher? 15 How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, “(H)How beautiful are the feet of those who [d](I)bring good news of good things!”

16 However, they (J)did not all heed the [e]good news; for Isaiah says, “(K)Lord, who has believed our report?” 17 So faith comes from (L)hearing, and hearing by (M)the word [f]of Christ.

Footnotes

  1. Romans 10:10 Lit to righteousness
  2. Romans 10:10 Lit to salvation
  3. Romans 10:11 Lit put to shame
  4. Romans 10:15 Or preach the gospel
  5. Romans 10:16 Or gospel
  6. Romans 10:17 Or concerning Christ

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.
