CPDV Catholic Public Domain Version
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Brothers, certainly the will of my heart, and my prayer to God, is for them unto salvation.
1 HERMANOS, ciertamente la voluntad de mi corazón y mi oración á Dios sobre Israel, es para salud.
1 Brothers, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.
2 For I offer testimony to them, that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
2 Porque yo les doy testimonio que tienen celo de Dios, mas no conforme á ciencia.
2 For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
3 For, being ignorant of the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own justice, they have not subjected themselves to the justice of God.
3 Porque ignorando la justicia de Dios, y procurando establecer la suya propia, no se han sujetado á la justicia de Dios.
3 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 For the end of the law, Christ, is unto justice for all who believe.
4 Porque el fin de la ley es Cristo, para justicia á todo aquel que cree.
4 For Christ is the fulfillment of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
5 And Moses wrote, about the justice that is of the law, that the man who will have done justice shall live by justice.
5 Porque Moisés describe la justicia que es por la ley: Que el hombre que hiciere estas cosas, vivirá por ellas.
5 For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, “The one who does them will live by them.”
6 But the justice that is of faith speaks in this way: Do not say in your heart: “Who shall ascend into heaven?” (that is, to bring Christ down);
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:)
6 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 “Or who shall descend into the abyss?” (that is, to call back Christ from the dead).
7 O, ¿quién descenderá al abismo? (esto es, para volver á traer á Cristo de los muertos.)
7 or, ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)”
8 But what does Scripture say? “The word is near, in your mouth and in your heart.” This is the word of faith, which we are preaching.
8 Mas ¿qué dice? Cercana está la palabra, en tu boca y en tu corazón. Esta es la palabra de fe, la cual predicamos:
8 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 For if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and if you believe in your heart that God has raised him up from the dead, you shall be saved.
9 Que si confesares con tu boca al Señor Jesús, y creyeres en tu corazón que Dios le levantó de los muertos, serás salvo.
9 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 For with the heart, we believe unto justice; but with the mouth, confession is unto salvation.
10 Porque con el corazón se cree para justicia; mas con la boca se hace confesión para salud.
10 For with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.
11 For Scripture says: “All those who believe in him shall not be confounded.”
11 Porque la Escritura dice: Todo aquel que en él creyere, no será avergonzado.
11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”
12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek. For the same Lord is over all, richly in all who call upon him.
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:
12 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 For all those who have called upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
13 Porque todo aquel que invocare el nombre del Señor, será salvo.
13 For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
14 Then in what way will those who have not believed in him call upon him? Or in what way will those who have not heard of him believe in him? And in what way will they hear of him without preaching?
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?
14 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 And truly, in what way will they preach, unless they have been sent, just as it has been written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who evangelize peace, of those who evangelize what is good!”
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!
15 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 But not all are obedient to the Gospel. For Isaiah says: “Lord, who has believed our report?”
16 Mas no todos obedecen al evangelio; pues Isaías dice: Señor, ¿quién ha creído á nuestro anuncio?
16 But they didn’t all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”
17 Therefore, faith is from hearing, and hearing is through the Word of Christ.
17 Luego la fe es por el oir; y el oir por la palabra de Dios.
17 So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
18 But I say: Have they not heard? For certainly: “Their sound has gone forth throughout all the earth, and their words unto the limits of the whole world.”
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.
18 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 But I say: Has Israel not known? First, Moses says: “I will lead you into a rivalry with those who are not a nation; in the midst of a foolish nation, I will send you into wrath.”
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.
19 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 And Isaiah dares to say: “I was discovered by those who were not seeking me. I appeared openly to those who were not asking about me.”
20 E Isaías determinadamente dice: Fuí hallado de los que no me buscaban; manifestéme á los que no preguntaban por mí.
20 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 Then to Israel he says: “All day long I have stretched out my hands to a people who do not believe and who contradict me.”
21 Mas acerca de Israel dice: Todo el día extendí mis manos á un pueblo rebelde y contradictor.
21 But about Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 10:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Romans (Homily XVII)

    He is now going again to rebuke them more vehemently than before. Wherefore he again does away with every suspicion of hatred, and makes a great effort beforehand to correct misapprehension. Do not then, he says, mind words or accusations, but observe that it is not in any hostile spirit that I say this.

  2. Quotes verse 10:15 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book III, Chapter XIII)

    And again, when Paul says, "How beautiful are the feet of those bringing glad tidings of good things, and preaching the Gospel of peace," he shows clearly that it was not merely one, but there were many who used to preach the truth.

  4. Quotes verse 10:2 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily VI)

    … I know nothing by myself," saith one, "yet am I not hereby justified:" --both for what we have done in ignorance, and what in knowledge; "For I bear them record," it is said, "that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge;" but yet this doth not suffice for an excuse for them.
