Romans 10:18-21

New Living Translation

¹⁸But I ask, have the people of Israel actually heard the message? Yes, they have:

“The message has gone throughout the earth,
and the words to all the world.”^[a]

¹⁹But I ask, did the people of Israel really understand? Yes, they did, for even in the time of Moses, God said,

“I will rouse your jealousy through people who are not even a nation.
I will provoke your anger through the foolish Gentiles.”^[b]

²⁰And later Isaiah spoke boldly for God, saying,

“I was found by people who were not looking for me.
I showed myself to those who were not asking for me.”^[c]

²¹But regarding Israel, God said,

“All day long I opened my arms to them,
but they were disobedient and rebellious.”^[d]

International Standard Version

¹⁸But I ask, “Didn’t they hear?” Certainly they did! In fact,

“Their voice has gone out into the whole world,
and their words to the ends of the earth.”^[a]

¹⁹Again I ask, “Did Israel not understand?” Moses was the first to say,

“I will make you jealous
by those who are not a nation;
I will make you angry
by a nation that doesn’t understand.”^[b]

²⁰And Isaiah boldly says,

“I was found by those who were not looking for me;
I was revealed to those who were not asking for me.”^[c]

²¹But about Israel he says,

“All day long I have held out my hands
to a disobedient and rebellious people.”^[d]
