Romanos 10

1 HERMANOS, ciertamente la voluntad de mi corazón y mi oración á Dios sobre Israel, es para salud.

Brothers, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.

2 Porque yo les doy testimonio que tienen celo de Dios, mas no conforme á ciencia.

For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

3 Porque ignorando la justicia de Dios, y procurando establecer la suya propia, no se han sujetado á la justicia de Dios.

For being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

4 Porque el fin de la ley es Cristo, para justicia á todo aquel que cree.

For Christ is the fulfilment of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

5 Porque Moisés describe la justicia que es por la ley: Que el hombre que hiciere estas cosas, vivirá por ellas.

For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, “The one who does them will live by them.”

6 Mas la justicia que es por la fe dice así: No digas en tu corazón: ¿Quién subirá al cielo? (esto es, para traer abajo á Cristo: )

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);

7 O, ¿quién descenderá al abismo? (esto es, para volver á traer á Cristo de los muertos.) (Abyssos g12)

or, ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)” (Abyssos g12)

8 Mas ¿qué dice? Cercana está la palabra, en tu boca y en tu corazón. Esta es la palabra de fe, la cual predicamos:

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:

9 Que si confesares con tu boca al Señor Jesús, y creyeres en tu corazón que Dios le levantó de los muertos, serás salvo.

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 Porque con el corazón se cree para justicia; mas con la boca se hace confesión para salud.

For with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.

11 Porque la Escritura dice: Todo aquel que en él creyere, no será avergonzado.

For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”

12 Porque no hay diferencia de Judío y de Griego: porque el mismo que es Señor de todos, rico es para con todos los que le invocan:

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.

13 Porque todo aquel que invocare el nombre del Señor, será salvo.

For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

14 ¿Cómo, pues invocarán á aquel en el cual no han creído? ¿y cómo creerán á aquel de quien no han oído? ¿y cómo oirán sin [haber] quien [les] predique?

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?

15 ¿Y cómo predicarán si no fueren enviados? Como está escrito: ¡Cuán hermosos son los pies de los que anuncian el evangelio de la paz, de los que anuncian el evangelio de los bienes!

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!”

16 Mas no todos obedecen al evangelio; pues Isaías dice: Señor, ¿quién ha creído á nuestro anuncio?

But they didn’t all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”

17 Luego la fe es por el oir; y el oir por la palabra de Dios.

So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

18 Mas digo: ¿No han oído? Antes bien, por toda la tierra ha salido la fama de ellos, y hasta los cabos de la redondez de la tierra las palabras de ellos.

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.”

19 Mas digo: ¿No ha conocido [esto] Israel? Primeramente Moisés dice: Yo os provocaré á celos con gente que no es [mía]; con gente insensata os provocaré á ira.

But I ask, didn’t Israel know? First Moses says, “I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation. I will make you angry with a nation void of understanding.”

20 E Isaías determinadamente dice: Fuí hallado de los que no me buscaban; manifestéme á los que no preguntaban por mí.

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.”

21 Mas acerca de Israel dice: Todo el día extendí mis manos á un pueblo rebelde y contradictor.

But about Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”
