¹⁴ ·But before people can ask the Lord for help, they must believe in him [^LHow, then, can they call on one in whom they have not believed?]; and ·before they can believe in him, they must hear about him [^Lhow can they believe in one of whom they have not heard?]; and ·for them to hear about the Lord, someone must tell them [^Lhow can they hear without someone preaching to them?]; ¹⁵ and ·before someone can go and tell them, that person must be sent [^Lhow can they preach unless they are sent?]. [^LAs] It is written, “How ·beautiful [or welcome; or timely] ·is the person [^Lare the feet of those] who comes ·to bring [proclaiming; preaching] good news [Is. 52:7].” ¹⁶ But not ·all the Jews [^Leveryone] ·accepted [heeded; obeyed] the good news. [^LFor] Isaiah said, “Lord, who believed ·what we told them [our message/report; Is. 53:1]?” ¹⁷ ·So [Thus; Consequently] faith comes from ·hearing the Good News [^Lhearing], and ·people hear the Good News [hearing comes; or the message/report arrives] ·when someone tells them [through the word/message] ·about [or proclaimed by; ^Lof] Christ.
