Romans 10
Geneva Bible 1599
1Brethren, mine hearts desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saued.
2For I beare them record, that they haue the zeale of God, but not according to knowledge.
3For they, being ignorant of the righteousnes of God, and going about to stablish their owne righteousnes, haue not submitted themselues to the righteousnes of God.
4For Christ is the end of the Law for righteousnes vnto euery one that beleeueth.
5For Moses thus describeth the righteousnes which is of the Lawe, That the man which doeth these things, shall liue thereby.
6But the righteousnes which is of faith, speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heauen? (that is to bring Christ from aboue)
7Or, Who shall descend into the deepe? (that is to bring Christ againe from the dead)
8But what sayth it? The worde is neere thee, euen in thy mouth, and in thine heart. This is the worde of faith which we preach.
9For if thou shalt confesse with thy mouth the Lord Iesus, and shalt beleeue in thine heart, that God raised him vp from the dead, thou shalt be saued:
10For with the heart man beleeueth vnto righteousnes, and with the mouth man confesseth to saluation.
11For the Scripture saith, Whosoeuer beleeueth in him, shall not be ashamed.
12For there is no difference betweene the Iewe and the Grecian: for he that is Lord ouer all, is rich vnto all, that call on him.
