Romarbrevet 10:6-21
nuBibeln (Swedish Contemporary Bible)
6 Men den rättfärdighet som kommer av tro säger: ”Du behöver inte fråga i ditt hjärta: Vem ska fara upp till himlen?” (det vill säga, för att hämta ner Kristus). 7 Eller: ”Vem ska fara ner i avgrunden?” (det vill säga, för att hämta tillbaka Kristus från de döda).
8 Men vad säger den då? ”Ordet är nära dig. Det finns i ditt hjärta och på dina läppar” (det vill säga, det budskap om tron som vi förkunnar).[a] 9 Om du alltså öppet bekänner att Jesus är Herren och i ditt hjärta tror att Gud har uppväckt honom från de döda, då blir du räddad. 10 Det är hjärtats tro som leder till rättfärdighet, och den öppna bekännelsen som räddar. 11 Skriften säger ju: ”Ingen som tror på honom ska stå där med skam.”[b] 12 Detta gäller för både judar och greker, för alla har samma Herre. Han ger generöst av sitt goda till alla som åkallar honom, 13 för ”var och en som åkallar Herrens namn ska bli räddad”[c].
Alla trodde inte på budskapet om Kristus
14 Men hur ska de kunna åkalla honom som de inte har kommit till tro på? Och hur ska de kunna tro på någon som de inte har hört om? Hur ska de höra om ingen förkunnar? 15 Hur kan någon förkunna om han inte är utsänd? Det står skrivet: ”Hur ljuvliga är inte stegen av dem som bär bud om goda ting!”[d] 16 Men alla israeliter trodde inte på evangeliet, för Jesaja säger också: ”Herre, vem trodde på vårt budskap?”[e] 17 Tron kommer alltså av att man hör budskapet, och budskapet hörs genom Kristus ord.
18 Men då blir min fråga: Har de inte hört? Jo, visst har de hört det!
”Deras röst når ut över hela jorden,
deras ord till världens ände.”[f]
19 Men då säger jag: Israel kanske aldrig förstod? Först säger Mose:
”Jag ska göra er svartsjuka genom sådana som inte är ett folk.
Jag ska göra er arga på ett folk som saknar förstånd.”[g]
20 Jesaja går så långt att han säger:
”Jag blev funnen av dem som inte sökte efter mig,
och jag visade mig för dem som inte frågade efter mig.”[h]
21 Men om Israels folk säger han:
”Hela dagen har jag räckt ut mina händer
mot ett olydigt och upproriskt folk.”[i]
Romans 10:6-21
New International Version
6 But the righteousness that is by faith(A) says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’”[a](B) (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the deep?’”[b](C) (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).(D) 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,”[c](E) that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: 9 If you declare(F) with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,”(G) and believe(H) in your heart that God raised him from the dead,(I) you will be saved.(J) 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”[d](K) 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile(L)—the same Lord is Lord of all(M) and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord(N) will be saved.”[e](O)
14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”[f](P)
16 But not all the Israelites accepted the good news.(Q) For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”[g](R) 17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message,(S) and the message is heard through the word about Christ.(T) 18 But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did:
19 Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says,
“I will make you envious(V) by those who are not a nation;
I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding.”[i](W)
20 And Isaiah boldly says,
“I was found by those who did not seek me;
I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me.”[j](X)
21 But concerning Israel he says,

English Standard Version
6 But (A)the righteousness based on faith says, (B)“Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the (C)abyss?’” (that is, (D)to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? (E)“The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); 9 because, if (F)you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and (G)believe in your heart (H)that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. 11 For the Scripture says, (I)“Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” 12 (J)For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; (K)for the same Lord is Lord of all, (L)bestowing his riches on all who call on him. 13 For (M)“everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him (N)of whom they have never heard?[a] And how are they to hear (O)without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, (P)“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” 16 But (Q)they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, (R)“Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?” 17 So (S)faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
18 But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have, for
19 But I ask, did Israel not understand? First Moses says,
(V)“I will (W)make you jealous of those who are not a nation;
with a (X)foolish nation I will make you angry.”
20 Then Isaiah is so bold as to say,
(Y)“I have been found by those who did not seek me;
I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me.”
21 But of Israel he says, (Z)“All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”
