Romans 10
Reading Romans chapter 10 in the Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible, public-domain text from 1899.
Verses 1–10
1 Brethren, the will of my heart, indeed and my prayer to God is for them unto salvation.
2 For I bear them witness that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
3 For they, not knowing the justice of God and seeking to establish their own, have not submitted themselves to the justice of God.
4 For the end of the law is Christ: unto justice to everyone that believeth.
5 For Moses wrote that the justice which is of the law: The man that shall do it shall live by it.
6 But the justice which is of faith, speaketh thus: Say not in thy heart: Who shall ascend into heaven? That is to bring Christ down;
7 Or who shall descend into the deep? That is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.
8 But what saith the scripture? The word is nigh thee; even in thy mouth and in thy heart. This is the word of faith, which we preach.
9 For if thou confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in thy heart that God hath raised him up from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For, with the heart, we believe unto justice: but, with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.
