- Original 16th-century spelling.
1 Brethren, mine hearts desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saued.
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 beare them record, that they haue the zeale of 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 they, being ignorant of the righteousnes of God, and going about to stablish their owne righteousnes, haue not submitted themselues to the righteousnes 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 Christ is the end of the Law for righteousnes vnto euery one that beleeueth.
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 For Moses thus describeth the righteousnes which is of the Lawe, That the man which doeth these things, shall liue thereby.
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 righteousnes which is of faith, speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heauen? (that is to bring Christ from aboue)
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 deepe? (that is to bring Christ againe 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 sayth it? The worde is neere thee, euen in thy mouth, and in thine heart. This is the worde of faith which we preach.
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 thou shalt confesse with thy mouth the Lord Iesus, and shalt beleeue in thine heart, that God raised him vp from the dead, thou shalt be saued:
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 man beleeueth vnto righteousnes, and with the mouth man confesseth to saluation.
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 the Scripture saith, Whosoeuer beleeueth in him, shall not be ashamed.
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 difference betweene the Iewe and the Grecian: for he that is Lord ouer all, is rich vnto all, that call on 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 whosoeuer shall call vpon the Name of the Lord, shalbe saued.
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 But how shall they call on him, in whome they haue not beleeued? and how shall they beleeue in him, of whom they haue not heard? and howe shall they heare without a preacher?
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 how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, Howe beautifull are the feete of them which bring glad tidings of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
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 they haue not all obeyed ye Gospel: for Esaias saith, Lord, who hath beleeued 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 Then faith is by hearing, and hearing by the worde of God.
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 demaund, Haue they not heard? No doubt their sound went out through all the earth, and their wordes into the endes of the worlde.
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 demaund, Did not Israel knowe God? First Moses sayth, I will prouoke you to enuie by a nation that is not my nation, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.
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 Esaias is bolde, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not, and haue bene made manifest to them that asked not after 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 And vnto Israel hee sayth, All the day long haue I stretched foorth mine hand vnto a disobedient, and gainesaying people.
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).
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.

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.
"But how shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? or how shall they believe without a preacher?" And those who seek the Lord shall praise Him.

… 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.

And again he aims at them, and speaks thus, Say not in thine heart, who shall ascend into heaven; or who shall descend into the deep? that is, to bring up Christ from the dead; and in like manner warning as he has elsewhere written again, Remember Jesus Christ raised from the dead; and again, And if Christ be …
