Quia si confitearis in ore tuo Dominum Jesum, et in corde tuo credideris quod Deus illum suscitavit a mortuis, salvus eris.

10 Corde enim creditur ad justitiam: ore autem confessio fit ad salutem.

11 Dicit enim Scriptura: Omnis qui credit in illum, non confundetur.

12 Non enim est distinctio Judaei et Graeci: nam idem Dominus omnium, dives in omnes qui invocant illum.

13 Omnis enim quicumque invocaverit nomen Domini, salvus erit.

14 Quomodo ergo invocabunt, in quem non crediderunt? aut quomodo credent ei, quem non audierunt? quomodo autem audient sine praedicante?

15 quomodo vero praedicabunt nisi mittantur? sicut scriptum est: Quam speciosi pedes evangelizantium pacem, evangelizantium bona!

16 Sed non omnes obediunt Evangelio. Isaias enim dicit: Domine, quis credidit auditui nostro?

17 Ergo fides ex auditu, auditus autem per verbum Christi.

18 Sed dico: Numquid non audierunt? Et quidem in omnem terram exivit sonus eorum, et in fines orbis terrae verba eorum.

19 Sed dico: Numquid Israel non cognovit? Primus Moyses dicit: Ego ad aemulationem vos adducam in non gentem: in gentem insipientem, in iram vos mittam.

20 Isaias autem audet, et dicit: Inventus sum a non quaerentibus me: palam apparui iis qui me non interrogabant.

21 Ad Israel autem dicit: Tota die expandi manus meas ad populum non credentem, et contradicentem.

If you declare(A) with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,”(B) and believe(C) in your heart that God raised him from the dead,(D) you will be saved.(E) 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”[a](F) 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile(G)—the same Lord is Lord of all(H) and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord(I) will be saved.”[b](J)

14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”[c](K)

16 But not all the Israelites accepted the good news.(L) For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”[d](M) 17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message,(N) and the message is heard through the word about Christ.(O) 18 But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did:

“Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
    their words to the ends of the world.”[e](P)

19 Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says,

“I will make you envious(Q) by those who are not a nation;
    I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding.”[f](R)

20 And Isaiah boldly says,

“I was found by those who did not seek me;
    I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me.”[g](S)

21 But concerning Israel he says,

“All day long I have held out my hands
    to a disobedient and obstinate people.”[h](T)
