Romanos 10
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
10 Hermanos, el deseo de mi corazón y mi oración a Dios por ellos[a] es para su salvación. 2 Porque yo testifico a su favor de que tienen celo de Dios(A), pero no conforme a un pleno conocimiento. 3 Pues desconociendo la justicia de Dios y procurando establecer la suya propia(B), no se sometieron a la justicia de Dios(C). 4 Porque Cristo es el fin[b] de la ley para justicia a todo aquel que cree(D).
Cómo ser salvo
5 Pues Moisés escribe que el hombre que practica la justicia que es de la ley, vivirá por ella(E). 6 Pero la justicia que es de la fe(F), dice así: «No digas en tu corazón: “¿Quién subirá al cielo(G)?”. Esto es, para hacer bajar a Cristo, 7 o “¿Quién descenderá al abismo(H)?”. Esto es, para subir a Cristo de entre los muertos(I)».
8 Pero, ¿qué dice? «Cerca de ti está la palabra, en tu boca y en tu corazón(J)», es decir, la palabra de fe que predicamos: 9 que si confiesas con tu boca a Jesús por Señor(K), y crees en tu corazón que Dios lo resucitó de entre los muertos, serás salvo(L). 10 Porque con el corazón se cree para justicia, y con la boca se confiesa para salvación.
11 Pues la Escritura dice: «Todo el que cree en Él no será avergonzado(M)». 12 Porque no hay distinción entre judío y griego(N), pues el mismo Señor es Señor de todos(O), abundando en riquezas para todos los que le invocan; 13 porque: «Todo aquel que invoque el nombre del Señor será salvo(P)».
14 ¿Cómo, pues, invocarán a Aquel en quien no han creído? ¿Y cómo creerán en Aquel de[c] quien no han oído(Q)? ¿Y cómo oirán sin haber quien les predique(R)? 15 ¿Y cómo predicarán si no son enviados? Tal como está escrito: «¡Cuán hermosos son los pies[d] de los que anuncian el evangelio del bien[e](S)!».
Israel rechaza el evangelio
16 Sin embargo, no todos hicieron caso al evangelio(T), porque Isaías dice: «Señor, ¿quién ha creído a nuestro anuncio(U)?». 17 Así que la fe viene del oír(V), y el oír, por la palabra de Cristo(W).
18 Pero yo digo, ¿acaso nunca han oído? Ciertamente que sí:
19 Y añado[g]: ¿Acaso Israel no sabía? En primer lugar, Moisés dice:
«Yo los provocaré a celos con un pueblo que no es pueblo;
Con un pueblo sin entendimiento los provocaré a ira(Y)».
20 E Isaías es muy osado, y dice:
21 Pero en cuanto a Israel, dice: «Todo el día he extendido Mis manos a un pueblo desobediente y rebelde(AA)».
Romans 10
English Standard Version
10 Brothers,[a] my heart's desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness that (A)they have a zeal for God, (B)but not according to knowledge. 3 For, being ignorant of (C)the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 For (D)Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.[b]
The Message of Salvation to All
5 For (E)Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that (F)the person who does the commandments shall live by them. 6 But (G)the righteousness based on faith says, (H)“Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the (I)abyss?’” (that is, (J)to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? (K)“The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim); 9 because, if (L)you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and (M)believe in your heart (N)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, (O)“Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” 12 (P)For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; (Q)for the same Lord is Lord of all, (R)bestowing his riches on all who call on him. 13 For (S)“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 (T)of whom they have never heard?[c] And how are they to hear (U)without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, (V)“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” 16 But (W)they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, (X)“Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?” 17 So (Y)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,
(AB)“I will (AC)make you jealous of those who are not a nation;
with a (AD)foolish nation I will make you angry.”
20 Then Isaiah is so bold as to say,
(AE)“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, (AF)“All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”

New International Version
10 Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire(A) and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous(B) for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.(C) 4 Christ is the culmination of the law(D) so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.(E)
5 Moses writes this about the righteousness that is by the law: “The person who does these things will live by them.”[a](F) 6 But the righteousness that is by faith(G) says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’”[b](H) (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the deep?’”[c](I) (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).(J) 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,”[d](K) that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: 9 If you declare(L) with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,”(M) and believe(N) in your heart that God raised him from the dead,(O) you will be saved.(P) 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.”[e](Q) 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile(R)—the same Lord is Lord of all(S) and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord(T) will be saved.”[f](U)
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!”[g](V)
16 But not all the Israelites accepted the good news.(W) For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”[h](X) 17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message,(Y) and the message is heard through the word about Christ.(Z) 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(AB) by those who are not a nation;
I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding.”[j](AC)
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.”[k](AD)
21 But concerning Israel he says,
