Romans 10

DOUAI-RHEIMS	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Brethren, the will of my heart, indeed, and my prayer to God, is for them unto salvation.	1 Brothers, certainly the will of my heart, and my prayer to God, is for them unto salvation.
2 For I bear them witness, that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.	2 For I offer testimony to them, that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
3 For they, not knowing the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own, have not submitted themselves to the justice of God.	3 For, being ignorant of the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own justice, they have not subjected themselves to the justice of God.
4 For the end of the law is Christ, unto justice to every one that believeth.	4 For the end of the law, Christ, is unto justice for all who believe.
5 For Moses wrote, that the justice which is of the law, the man that shall do it, shall live by it.	5 And Moses wrote, about the justice that is of the law, that the man who will have done justice shall live by justice.
6 But the justice which is of faith, speaketh thus: Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? that is, to bring Christ down;	6 But the justice that is of faith speaks in this way: Do not say in your heart: “Who shall ascend into heaven?” (that is, to bring Christ down);
7 Or who shall descend into the deep? that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.	7 “Or who shall descend into the abyss?” (that is, to call back Christ from the dead).
8 But what saith the scripture? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart. This is the word of faith, which we preach.	8 But what does Scripture say? “The word is near, in your mouth and in your heart.” This is the word of faith, which we are preaching.
9 For if thou confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thy heart that God hath raised him up from the dead, thou shalt be saved.	9 For if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and if you believe in your heart that God has raised him up from the dead, you shall be saved.
10 For, with the heart, we believe unto justice; but, with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.	10 For with the heart, we believe unto justice; but with the mouth, confession is unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith: Whosoever believeth in him, shall not be confounded.	11 For Scripture says: “All those who believe in him shall not be confounded.”
12 For there is no distinction of the Jew and the Greek: for the same is Lord over all, rich unto all that call upon him.	12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek. For the same Lord is over all, richly in all who call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved.	13 For all those who have called upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 How then shall they call on him, in whom they have not believed? Or how shall they believe him, of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear, without a preacher?	14 Then in what way will those who have not believed in him call upon him? Or in what way will those who have not heard of him believe in him? And in what way will they hear of him without preaching?
15 And how shall they preach unless they be sent, as it is written: How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, of them that bring glad tidings of good things!	15 And truly, in what way will they preach, unless they have been sent, just as it has been written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who evangelize peace, of those who evangelize what is good!”
16 But all do not obey the gospel. For Isaias saith: Lord, who hath believed our report?	16 But not all are obedient to the Gospel. For Isaiah says: “Lord, who has believed our report?”
17 Faith then cometh by hearing; and hearing by the word of Christ.	17 Therefore, faith is from hearing, and hearing is through the Word of Christ.
18 But I say: Have they not heard? Yes, verily, their sound hath gone forth into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the whole world.	18 But I say: Have they not heard? For certainly: “Their sound has gone forth throughout all the earth, and their words unto the limits of the whole world.”
19 But I say: Hath not Israel known? First, Moses saith: I will provoke you to jealousy by that which is not a nation; by a foolish nation I will anger you.	19 But I say: Has Israel not known? First, Moses says: “I will lead you into a rivalry with those who are not a nation; in the midst of a foolish nation, I will send you into wrath.”
20 But Isaias is bold, and saith: I was found by them that did not seek me: I appeared openly to them that asked not after me.	20 And Isaiah dares to say: “I was discovered by those who were not seeking me. I appeared openly to those who were not asking about me.”
21 But to Israel he saith: All the day long have I spread my hands to a people that believeth not, and contradicteth me.	21 Then to Israel he says: “All day long I have stretched out my hands to a people who do not believe and who contradict me.”
