10:1  Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.
10:2  For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
10:3  For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn't subject themselves to the righteousness of God.
10:4  For Christ is the fulfillment of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
10:5  For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, "The one who does them will live by them."
10:6  But the righteousness which is of faith says this, "Don't say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?' (that is, to bring Christ down);
10:7  or, 'Who will descend into the abyss?' (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)"
10:8  But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;" that is, the word of faith, which we preach:
10:9  that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10:10  For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
10:11  For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed."
10:12  For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.
10:13  For, "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved."
10:14  How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?
10:15  And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!"
10:16  But they didn't all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?"
10:17  So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
10:18  But I say, didn't they hear? Yes, most certainly, "Their sound went out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world."
10:19  But I ask, didn't Israel know? First Moses says, "I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, with a nation void of understanding I will make you angry."
10:20  Isaiah is very bold, and says, "I was found by those who didn't seek me. I was revealed to those who didn't ask for me."
10:21  But as to Israel he says, "All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people."
