Romans 10:14-17
English Standard Version
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him (A)of whom they have never heard?[a] And how are they to hear (B)without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, (C)“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” 16 But (D)they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, (E)“Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?” 17 So (F)faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.

Romans 10:14-17
International Standard Version
14 How, then, can people[a] call on someone they have not believed? And how can they believe in someone they have not heard about? And how can they hear without someone preaching? 15 And how can people[b] preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are[c] those who bring the good news!”[d] 16 But not everyone has obeyed the gospel, for Isaiah asks, “Lord, who has believed our message?”[e] 17 Consequently, faith results from listening, and listening results through the word of the Messiah.[f]
