1 Fratres, voluntas quidem cordis mei, et obsecratio ad Deum, fit pro illis in salutem.
Brethren my hertes desyre and prayer to God for Israel is that they might be saved.
2 Testimonium enim perhibeo illis quod aemulationem Dei habent, sed non secundum scientiam.
For I beare them recorde that they have a fervet mynde to God warde but not accordinge to knowledge.
3 Ignorantes enim iustitiam Dei, et suam quaerentes statuere, iustitiae Dei non sunt subiecti.
For they are ignoraut of the rightewesnes which is alowed before God and goo about to stablisshe their awne rightewesnes and therfore are not obedient vnto the rightewesnes which is of valew before God.
4 Finis enim legis, Christus, ad iustitiam omni credenti.
For Christ is the ende of the lawe to iustifie all that beleve.
5 Moyses enim scripsit, quoniam iustitiam, quae ex lege est, qui fecerit homo, vivet in ea.
Moses describeth the rightewesnes which cometh of ye lawe howe that the man which doth the thinges of the lawe shall lyve therin.
6 Quae autem ex fide est iustitia, sic dicit: Ne dixeris in corde tuo: quis ascendet in caelum? id est, Christum deducere:
But ye rightewesnes which cometh of fayth speaketh on this wyse. Saye not in thyne hert who shall ascende into heven? (that is nothinge els then to fetch Christ doune)
Other who shall descende into the depe? (that is nothinge els but to fetch vp Christ from deeth) (Abyssos g12)
8 Sed quid dicit Scriptura? Prope est verbum in ore tuo, et in corde tuo: hoc est verbum fidei, quod praedicamus.
But what sayth the scripture? The worde is nye the even in thy mouth and in thyn herte. This worde is the worde of fayth which we preache.
9 Quia si confitearis in ore tuo Dominum Iesum, et in corde tuo credideris quod Deus illum suscitavit a mortuis, salvus eris.
For yf thou shalt knowledge wt thy mouth that Iesus is the lorde and shalt beleve with thyn hert that God raysed him up from deeth thou shalt be safe.
10 Corde enim creditur ad iustitiam: ore autem confessio fit ad salutem.
For the belefe of the hert iustifieth: and to knowledge with the mouth maketh a man safe.
11 Dicit enim Scriptura: Omnis, qui credit in illum, non confundetur.
For the scripture sayth: whosoever beleveth on him shall not be ashamed.
12 Non enim est distinctio Iudaei, et Graeci: nam idem Dominus omnium, dives in omnes, qui invocant illum.
Ther is no difference bitwene the Iewe and the gentyll. For one is Lorde of all which is ryche vnto all that call on him.
13 Omnis enim, quicumque invocaverit nomen Domini, salvus erit.
For whosoever shall call on the name of the lorde shalbe safe.
14 Quomodo ergo invocabunt, in quem non crediderunt? Aut quomodo credent ei, quem non audierunt? Quomodo autem audient sine praedicante?
But how shall they call on him on who they beleved not? how shall they beleve on him of whom they have not herde? how shall they heare with out a preacher?
15 Quomodo vero praedicabunt nisi mittantur? sicut scriptum est: Quam speciosi pedes evangelizantium pacem, evangelizantium bona!
And how shall they preach except they be sent? As it is written: how beautifull are the fete of them which bringe glad tydynges of peace and bringe glad tydynges of good thinges.
16 Sed non omnes obediunt Evangelio. Isaias enim dicit: Domine quis credidit auditui nostro?
But they have not all obeyed to ye gospell. For Esaias sayth: Lorde who shall beleve oure sayinges?
17 Ergo fides ex auditu, auditus autem per verbum Christi.
So then fayth cometh by hearynge and hearynge cometh by the worde of God.
18 Sed dico: Numquid non audierunt? Et quidem in omnem terram exivit sonus eorum, et in fines orbis terrae verba eorum.
But I axe: have they not herde? No dout their sounde went out into all londes: and their wordes in to the endes of the worlde.
19 Sed dico: Numquid Israel non cognovit? Primus Moyses dicit: Ego ad aemulationem vos adducam in non gentem: in gentem insipientem, in iram vos mittam.
But I demaunde whether Israel dyd knowe or not? Fyrst Moses sayth: I will provoke you for to envy by the that are no people and by a folisshe nacion I will anger you.
20 Isaias autem audet, et dicit: Inventus sum a non quaerentibus me: palam apparui iis, qui me non interrogabant.
Esaias after that is bolde and sayth. I am founde of the that sought me not and have appered to them that axed not after me.
21 Ad Israel autem dicit: Tota die expandi manus meas ad populum non credentem, et contradicentem mihi.
And agaynst Israel he sayth: All daye longe have I stretched forth my hondes vnto a people yt beleveth not but speaketh agaynst me.
