My brothers and sisters, my heart's desire—my prayer to God—is for the salvation of the people of Israel!

I can testify to their passionate dedication to God, but it's not based on knowing him as he truly is.

They don't understand how God makes us right with him, and they try to make themselves right. They refuse to accept God's way of making people right.
4 ᏗᎧᎿᎭᏩᏛᏍᏗᏰᏃ ᎤᎬᏩᎴ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎤᎾᏚᏓᎴᏍᏙᏗᏱ ᎾᏂᎥ ᎠᏃᎯᏳᎲᏍᎩ.
For Christ is the fulfillment of the law. All those who trust in him are made right.

Moses wrote, “Whoever does what is right by obeying the law will live.”
6 ᎪᎯᏳᏗᏍᎩᏂ ᎠᏚᏓᎴᏍᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎯᎠ ᏂᎦᏪᎭ, ᏞᏍᏗ ᏣᎾᏫᏱ ᎯᎠ ᏱᏂᏪᏍᎨᏍᏗ, ᎦᎪ ᎦᎸᎶᎢ ᏓᏰᏏ? ( ᎾᏍᎩ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎠᎦᏠᎥᏙᏗᏱ; )
But the attitude of doing right that comes from trust says this: “Don't ask ‘who'll go to heaven?’ (asking to bring Christ down),”
or “‘who'll go to the place of the dead?’ (asking to bring Christ back from the dead).” (Abyssos g12)
8 ᎠᏎᏃ ᎦᏙ ᎠᏗᎭ? ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᎮᎲ ᎾᎥᏂᏳ ᏄᏍᏗᏕᎦ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎯᎰᎵᏉ, ᎠᎴ ᏣᎾᏫᏱᏉ ᎡᎭ; ᎾᏍᎩ ᎯᎠ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᎪᎯᏳᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎧᏃᎮᏍᎩ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᏴ ᏦᏣᎵᏥᏙᎲᏍᎦ;
What Scripture actually says is: “The message is very close to you—it's what you talk about and what's in your mind.” In fact it's this message based on trust that we're presenting.
9 ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏳᏃ ᎯᎰᎵ ᏱᏨᏔᏅ ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᏱᏂᏴᏁᎸ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏥᏌ, ᎠᎴ ᏣᎾᏫᏱ ᎢᏴᏛ ᏱᏦᎯᏳᏅ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏕᎤᎴᏔᏅ ᎤᏲᎱᏒᎢ, ᎠᏎ ᎡᏣᏍᏕᎸᏗ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ.
For if you declare that you accept Jesus as Lord, and you are convinced in your mind that God raised him from the dead, then you will be saved.
10 ᎣᎾᏫᏰᏃ ᎬᏗ ᎠᎪᎯᏳᎲᏍᎪ ᎣᏚᏓᎴᏍᏗ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏔᏂᎦ; ᎠᎴ ᎥᎰᎵ ᎬᏗ ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᎾᎬᏁᎰ ᎥᏓᏗᏍᏕᎸᏗ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏔᏂᎦ.
Your trust in God makes you right and good, and your declaration of accepting God saves you.
11 ᎪᏪᎵᏰᏃ ᎯᎠ ᏂᎦᏪᎭ, ᎩᎶ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎪᎯᏳᎲᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎥᏝ ᎤᏕᎰᎯᏍᏗ ᏱᎨᏎᏍᏗ.
As Scripture says, “Those who trust in him will not be disappointed.”
12 ᎥᏝᏰᏃ ᏱᏚᎾᏓᎴᎾᎠ ᎠᏂᏧᏏ ᎠᏃ ᎠᏂᎪᎢ; ᎾᏍᎩᏉᏰᏃ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎾᏂᎥ ᎤᎾᏤᎵᎦ ᎤᏣᏘ ᎤᏪᎿᎭᎢᏳ ᏧᏍᏕᎸᏗᏱ ᎾᏂᎥ ᎬᏩᏓᏙᎵᏍᏓᏁᎯ.
There's no difference between Jew and Greek—for the same Lord is Lord of everyone, and he gives generously to everyone who asks him.
13 ᎾᏂᎥᏉᏰᏃ ᎩᎶ ᎠᎾᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏚᏙᎥ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎠᏂᏁᎢᏍᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᎨᏥᏍᏕᎸᏗ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ.
For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
14 ᎦᏙᏃ ᏱᎦᎵᏍᏙᏓ ᏯᎾᏓᏙᎵᏍᏓᏏ ᎩᎶ ᏄᏃᎯᏳᏒᎾ ᏱᎩ ᎡᎲᎢ? ᎠᎴ ᎦᏙ ᏱᎦᎵᏍᏙᏓ ᏯᏃᎯᏳᎲᎦ ᎩᎶ ᎡᎲ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᎾᏛᎦᏅᎯ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᏱᎩ ᎡᎲᎢ? ᎠᎴ ᎦᏙ ᏱᎦᎵᏍᏙᏓ ᏯᎾᏛᎬᎦ ᎩᎶ ᎠᎵᏥᏙᎲᏍᎩ ᏄᏁᎲᎾ ᏱᎩ?
But how can people call on someone they don't trust? How can they trust someone they haven't heard about? How can they hear unless they're told?
15 ᎠᎴ ᎦᏙ ᏱᎦᎵᏍᏙᏓ ᏯᎾᎵᏥᏙᎲᎦ ᎢᏳᏃ ᏂᎨᏥᏅᏒᎾ ᏱᎩ? ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎯᎠ ᏥᏂᎬᏅ ᏥᎪᏪᎳ, ᏂᏚᏬᏚᎭ ᏧᎾᎳᏏᏕᏂ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᏅᏩᏙᎯᏯᏛ ᎠᏓᏁᎯ ᎠᎾᎵᏥᏙᎲᏍᎩ, ᎣᏍᏛ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᎠᎾᎵᏥᏙᎲᏍᎩ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ ᎨᏒᎢ.
How can they go out and tell others unless they're sent? Just as Scripture says, “Those who come bringing the good news are truly welcome!”
16 ᎠᏎᏃ ᎥᏝ ᎾᏂᎥ ᎤᏃᎯᏳᏅᎯ ᏱᎩ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ. ᎢᏌᏯᏰᏃ ᎯᎠ ᏂᎦᏪᎭ, ᏱᎰᏩ, ᎦᎪ ᎤᏬᎯᏳᏅ ᎣᏥᏃᎮᏍᎬᎢ?
But not everyone has accepted the good news. As Isaiah asks: “Lord, who trusted in the news they heard from us?”
17 ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎯᎠ ᏥᏄᏍᏗ ᎪᎯᏳᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᏛᎪᏗᏱ ᏗᏓᎴᎲᏍᎦ, ᎠᏛᎪᏗᏱᏃ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᏤᎵ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᏗᏓᎴᎲᏍᎦ.
Trusting in God comes from hearing—hearing the message of Christ.
18 ᎠᏎᏃ ᎠᏴ ᎯᎠ ᏂᏥᏪᎭ, ᏝᏍᎪ ᏳᎾᏛᎦᏅ? ᎥᎥ, ᎤᏙᎯᏳᎯ, ᎤᎾᏓᏃᏴᎵᏍᏛ ᏚᏰᎵᏒ ᎡᎳᏂᎬᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎠᏂᏬᏂᏍᎬ ᎡᎶᎯ ᏩᏍᏛ ᎢᏴᏛ ᏚᏰᎵᏒ.
It's not that they haven't heard. Quite the opposite: “The voices of those speaking for God have been heard all over the earth—their message went out to the whole world.”
19 ᎠᏎᏃ ᎠᏴ ᏂᏥᏪᎭ, ᏝᏍᎪ ᏯᏂᎦᏔᎮ ᎢᏏᎵ? ᎢᎬᏱ ᎨᏒ ᎼᏏ ᎯᎠ ᏂᎦᏪᎭ, ᎢᏣᏛᏳᎨᏗᏱ ᏅᏓᏨᏴᏁᎵ ᏓᎦᏥᏴᏔᏂ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎠᏰᎵ ᎤᏃᏢᎯ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᏄᎾᏓᏅᏛᎾ ᏴᏫ ᎦᏥᏴᏗᏍᎬ ᏓᏨᎾᎸᏍᏔᏂ.
So my question is, “Didn't Israel know?” First of all Moses says, “I'll make you jealous by using people who aren't even a nation; I will make you angry by using ignorant foreigners!”
20 ᎠᏎᏃ ᎢᏌᏯ ᏂᎦᎾᏰᏍᎬᎾ ᎯᎠ ᏂᎦᏪᎭ, ᎬᎩᏩᏛᎲᎩ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᏂᎬᎩᏲᎸᎾ ᎨᏒᎢ; ᎬᏂᎨᏒ ᏂᎬᏋᏁᎸᎩ ᎠᏁᎲ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎾᎾᏛᏛᎲᏍᎬᎾ ᎨᏒ ᎨᎥᎢ.
Then Isaiah said it even more strongly: “I was found by people who weren't even looking for me; I revealed myself to people who weren't even asking for me.”
21 ᎢᏏᎵᏍᎩᏂ ᎯᎠ ᏂᏕᎦᏪᏎᎭ, ᎤᏙᏓᏆᏛ ᏓᏆᏎᎵᏛᎩ ᎦᏥᏯᏂᏍᎬ ᏄᏃᎯᏳᏒᎾ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏂᎪᏁᎶᎯᏌᏘ ᏴᏫ.
As God says to Israel, “All day long I reached out my hands to a disobedient and stubborn people.”
