NOVA VULGATADOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Fratres, voluntas quidem cordis mei et obsecratio ad Deum pro illis insalutem.1 Brethren, the will of my heart, indeed, and my prayer to God, is for them unto salvation.
2 Testimonium enim perhibeo illis quod aemulationem Dei habent sed nonsecundum scientiam;2 For I bear them witness, that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
3 ignorantes enim Dei iustitiam et suam iustitiam quaerentesstatuere, iustitiae Dei non sunt subiecti;3 For they, not knowing the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own, have not submitted themselves to the justice of God.
4 finis enim legis Christus adiustitiam omni credenti.
4 For the end of the law is Christ, unto justice to every one that believeth.
5 Moyses enim scribit de iustitia, quae ex lege est: “ Qui fecerit homo, vivetin eis ”.5 For Moses wrote, that the justice which is of the law, the man that shall do it, shall live by it.
6 Quae autem ex fide est iustitia, sic dicit: “ Ne dixeris incorde tuo: Quis ascendet in caelum?”, id est Christum deducere;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;
7 aut: “Quis descendet in abyssum? ”, hoc est Christum ex mortuis revocare.7 Or who shall descend into the deep? that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.
8 Sed quiddicit? “ Prope te est verbum, in ore tuo et in corde tuo ”; hoc est verbumfidei, quod praedicamus.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.
9 Quia si confitearis in ore tuo: “ Dominum Iesum!”, et in corde tuo credideris quod Deus illum excitavit ex mortuis, salvuseris.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.
10 Corde enim creditur ad iustitiam, ore autem confessio fit in salutem.10 For, with the heart, we believe unto justice; but, with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.
11 Dicit enim Scriptura:
“ Omnis, qui credit in illo, non confundetur ”.
11 For the scripture saith: Whosoever believeth in him, shall not be confounded.
12 Non enim est distinctio Iudaei et Graeci, nam idem Dominus omnium, dives inomnes, qui invocant illum:
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.
13 Omnis enim, quicumque invocaverit nomen Domini, salvus erit.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved.
14 Quomodo ergo invocabunt, in quem non crediderunt? Aut quomodo credent ei,quem non audierunt? Quomodo autem audient sine praedicante?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?
15 Quomodo veropraedicabunt nisi mittantur? Sicut scriptum est:
“ Quam speciosi pedes evangelizantium bona ”.
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!
16 Sed non omnes oboedierunt evangelio; Isaias enim dicit:
“ Domine, quis credidit auditui nostro? ”.
16 But all do not obey the gospel. For Isaias saith: Lord, who hath believed our report?
17 Ergo fides ex auditu, auditusautem per verbum Christi.
17 Faith then cometh by hearing; and hearing by the word of Christ.
18 Sed dico: Numquid non audierunt? Quin immo,
in omnem terram exiit sonus eorum,
et in fines orbis terrae verba eorum.
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.
19 Sed dico: Numquid Israel non cognovit? Primus Moyses dicit:
“ Ego ad aemulationem vos adducam per Non gentem:
per gentem insipientem ad iram vos provocabo ”.
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.
20 Isaias autem audet et dicit: “ Inventus sum in non quaerentibus me; palamapparui his, qui me non interrogabant ”.
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.
21 Ad Israel autem dicit: “ Tota die expandi manus meas ad populum noncredentem et contradicentem ”.
21 But to Israel he saith: All the day long have I spread my hands to a people that believeth not, and contradicteth me.
