Romans 10
10
1Brethren, my heart's desire and my supplication to God is for them, that they may be saved. 2For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. 3For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God. 4For Christ is the end of the law unto righteousness to every one that believeth. 5For Moses writeth that the man that doeth the righteousness which is of the law shall live thereby. 6But the righteousness which is of faith saith thus, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down:) 7or, Who shall descend into the abyss? (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.) 8But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach: 9because if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved: 10for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be put to shame.
12For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek: for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich unto all that call upon him: 13for, Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15and how shall they preach, except they be sent? even as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that bring glad tidings of good things! 16But they did not all hearken to the glad tidings. For Isaiah saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? 17So belief cometh of hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. 18But I say, Did they not hear? Yea, verily, Their sound went out into all the earth, And their words unto the ends of the world. 19But I say, Did Israel not know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, With a nation void of understanding will I anger you. 20And Isaiah is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I became manifest unto them that asked not of me. 21But as to Israel he saith, All the day long did I spread out my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.

Romans 10
10
1Achim b'Moshiach, the great tshuka (desire, longing) of my lev and my tefillah to Hashem is for the Yeshu'at Yisroel (salvation of Israel).
2For I can be meid (provide testimony, attest) regarding them that they have a kinat Hashem (zeal for G-d), but not in accordance with saving binah and da'as.
3For, having no saving da'as of the Tzidkat Hashem (the righteousness of G-d), and seeking to establish their own,#10:3 that is, self-attained they have not subjected themselves to the Tzidkat Hashem (righteousness of G-d).#10:3 1:17; 3:5,21,25-26; 6:18
4For Moshiach is the goal of the Torah as a means to being YITZDAK IM HASHEM, for all who have emunah.
5For Moshe Rabbeinu writes with reference to the (accessibility of) Tzidkat Torah (righteousness which is from the Torah), The man YA'ASEH OTAM VACHAI#10:5 Lv 18:5 (who does these things will live) by them.
6Whereas the Tzidkat Emunah (righteousness which is from faith) speaks thus: Do not say#10:6 looking for Messianic salvation being merited by superhuman attainments in works in your lev, Who will go up into Shomayim? (that is, to bring Moshiach down)?
7Or, Who will go down into the abyss? (that is, to bring Moshiach up from the Mesim).
8But what does it say? “The Dvar is near you, in your MOUTH and in your HEART.”#10:8 Dt 30:14 That is, the Dvar of Emunah which we proclaim.
9Because if you make hoda'ah (confession) “with your PEH” of Adoneinu Yehoshua, and have emunah “in your LEV” that G-d raised him from the Mesim, you#10:9 See Mt 16:15-18 will be delivered.
10For with the “heart” one has emunah unto being YITZDAK IM HASHEM and with the “mouth” hoda'ah is made unto Yeshu'at Eloheinu.
11For the Kitvei Hakodesh says, Everyone who has emunah in Him shall not be put to shame.#10:11 Isa 28:16
12For there is no distinction between Yehudi and Yevani,#10:12 cf. Ro 3:9 for the same one is Adon Echad l'chulam (one L-rd over all), rich to all who call upon Him.
13For V'HAYAH KOL ASHER YIKRA B'SHEM ADONOI (Everyone whoever calls upon the Name of the L-rd — Yoel 3:5 [2:32]) shall be delivered.
14How therefore shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without someone doing the hatafah (preaching)?
15And how shall they do the hatafah (preaching) unless they have been sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach” Besuras HaGeulah Isa 52:7.
16But not all have mishma'at (obedience) to the Besuras HaGeulah. For Yeshayah says: MI HE'EMIN LISHMU'ATEINU#10:16 Isa 53:1 (Who has believed that which is heard, our report)?#10:16 cf. Dt 9:4
17So, then, emunah comes from hearing, and hearing comes through the Dvar HaMoshiach.
18But I say, is it the case that they have not heard? On the contrary: “Their sound has gone out into all the earth and their words to the ends of the inhabited world” Ps 19:4.
19But I say, is it the case that Yisroel has not known? First, Moshe Rabbeinu says: I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation; by a senseless nation I will make you angry.#10:19 Dt 32:21
20And Yeshayah HaNavi is bold as to say: I have been found by those who do not seek Me; I have revealed Myself to those who do not ask for Me.#10:20 Isa 65:1
21But concerning Yisroel he says: All the day I stretched out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people.#10:21 Isa 65:2
