Romans 10:18-21
New King James Version
18 But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:
(A)“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:
(B)“I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation,
I will move you to anger by a (C)foolish nation.”
20 But Isaiah is very bold and says:
(D)“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:
(E)“All day long I have stretched out My hands
To a disobedient and contrary people.”
