NASB — Romans 10 — KJV

The Word of Faith Brings Salvation

1 Brethren°, my heart’s° desire° and my prayer° to God° for them is for [their] salvation°. 2 For I testify° about them that they have° aa zeal° for God°, but not in accordance° with knowledge°. 3 For not knowing° about aGod’s° righteousness° and bseeking° to establish° their own°, they did not subject° themselves to the righteousness° of God°. 4 For aChrist° is the Iend° of the law° for righteousness° to beveryone° who believes°.

5 ¶ For Moses° writes° that the man° who practices° the righteousness° which is Ibased° on law° ashall live° IIby that righteousness°. 6 But athe righteousness° Ibased° on faith° speaks° as follows°: “bDO NOT SAY° IN YOUR HEART°, ‘WHO° WILL ASCEND° INTO HEAVEN°?’ (that is, to bring° Christ° down°), 7 or° ‘WHO° WILL DESCEND° INTO THE aABYSS°?’ (that is, to bbring° Christ° up from the dead°).” 8 But what° does it say°? “aTHE WORD° IS NEAR° YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH° AND IN YOUR HEART°”—that is, the word° of faith° which° we are preaching°, 9 Ithat aif° you confess° with your mouth° Jesus° [as] Lord°, and bbelieve° in your heart° that cGod° raised° Him from the dead°, you will be saved°; 10 for with the heart° a person believes°, Iresulting° in righteousness°, and with the mouth° he confesses°, IIresulting° in salvation°. 11 For the Scripture° says°, “aWHOEVER° BELIEVES° IN HIM WILL NOT BE IDISAPPOINTED°.” 12 For athere is no° distinction° between Jew° and Greek°; for the same° [Lord] is bLord° of call°, abounding° in riches° for all° who call° on Him; 13 for “aWHOEVER° WILL CALL° ON THE NAME° OF THE LORD° WILL BE SAVED°.”

1 ¶ Brethren,º myº heart'sº desireº² andº prayerº toº Godº forº Israelº is,ºª that¹¹ they might be saved.º² 2 Forº I bear¹ª them¹ recordºª² thatº they haveºª a zealº of God,º butº notº accordingº to knowledge.º 3 Forº they being ignorantºª of God'sº righteousness,º andº going aboutºª to establishºª their ownº righteousness,º have¹ª notº submitted themselvesºª unto the² righteousnessº of God.º 4 Forº Christº [is] the endº of the lawº forº righteousnessº to every oneº that believeth.ºª

The Scripture sheweth the difference betwixt the righteousness of the Law, and this of faith,

5 Forº Mosesº describethºª the² righteousnessº whichº is ofº the² law,º Thatº the² manº which doethºª those thingsº shall liveºª byº them.º 6 Butº the² righteousnessº which is ofº faithº speakethºª on this wise,º Sayºª notº inº thineº heart,º Whoº shall ascendºª intoº heaven?º (that is,ºª to bring¹ª Christ¹ downºª² [from above]:) 7 Or,º Whoº shall descendºª intoº the² deep?º (that is,ºª to bring up¹ª Christ¹ againºª² fromº the dead.)º 8 Butº whatº saith² it?¹ª The² wordº isºª nighº thee,º [even] inº thyº mouth,º andº inº thyº heart:º that is,ºª the² wordº of faith,º whichº we preach;ºª 9 Thatº ifº thou shalt confessºª withº thyº mouthº the Lordº Jesus,º andº shalt believeºª inº thineº heartº thatº Godº hath raisedºª himº fromº the dead,º thou shalt be saved.ºª 10 Forº with the heartº man believethºª untoº righteousness;º andº with the mouthº confession is madeºª untoº salvation.º
