WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Αδελφοί, η επιθυμία της καρδίας μου και η δέησις η προς τον Θεόν υπέρ του Ισραήλ είναι διά την σωτηρίαν αυτών·
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 διότι μαρτυρώ περί αυτών ότι έχουσι ζήλον Θεού, αλλ' ουχί κατ' επίγνωσιν.
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 Επειδή μη γνωρίζοντες την δικαιοσύνην του Θεού, και ζητούντες να συστήσωσι την ιδίαν αυτών δικαιοσύνην, δεν υπετάχθησαν εις την δικαιοσύνην του Θεού.
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 Επειδή το τέλος του νόμου είναι ο Χριστός προς δικαιοσύνην εις πάντα τον πιστεύοντα.
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 Διότι ο Μωϋσής γράφει την δικαιοσύνην την εκ του νόμου, λέγων ότι ο άνθρωπος ο κάμνων ταύτα θέλει ζήσει δι' αυτών·
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 η εκ πίστεως όμως δικαιοσύνη λέγει ούτω· Μη είπης εν τη καρδία σου, Τις θέλει αναβή εις τον ουρανόν; τουτέστι διά να καταβιβάση τον Χριστόν.
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 ή, Τις θέλει καταβή εις την άβυσσον; τουτέστι διά να αναβιβάση τον Χριστόν εκ νεκρών.
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 Αλλά τι λέγει; Πλησίον σου είναι ο λόγος, εν τω στόματί σου και εν τη καρδία σου· τουτέστιν ο λόγος της πίστεως, τον οποίον κηρύττομεν.
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 Ότι εάν ομολογήσης διά του στόματός σου τον Κύριον Ιησούν, και πιστεύσης εν τη καρδία σου ότι ο Θεός ανέστησεν αυτόν εκ νεκρών, θέλεις σωθή·
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 διότι με την καρδίαν πιστεύει τις προς δικαιοσύνην, και με το στόμα γίνεται ομολογία προς σωτηρίαν.
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 Διότι λέγει η γραφή· Πας ο πιστεύων επ' αυτόν δεν θέλει καταισχυνθή.
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 Επειδή δεν είναι διαφορά Ιουδαίου τε και Ελληνος· διότι ο αυτός Κύριος είναι πάντων, πλούσιος προς πάντας τους επικαλουμένους αυτόν·
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 διότι Πας όστις επικαλεσθή το όνομα του Κυρίου θέλει σωθή.
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 Πως λοιπόν θέλουσιν επικαλεσθή εκείνον, εις τον οποίον δεν επίστευσαν; και πως θέλουσι πιστεύσει εις εκείνον, περί του οποίου δεν ήκουσαν; και πως θέλουσιν ακούσει χωρίς να υπάρχη ο κηρύττων;
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 Και πως θέλουσι κηρύξει, εάν δεν αποσταλώσι; Καθώς είναι γεγραμμένον· Πόσον ωραίοι οι πόδες των ευαγγελιζομένων ειρήνην, των ευαγγελιζομένων τα αγαθά.
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 Αλλά δεν υπήκουσαν πάντες εις το ευαγγέλιον. Διότι ο Ησαΐας λέγει· Κύριε, τις επίστευσεν εις το κήρυγμα ημών;
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 Άρα η πίστις είναι εξ ακοής, η δε ακοή διά του λόγου του Θεού.
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 Λέγω όμως, Μη δεν ήκουσαν; Μάλιστα εις πάσαν την γην εξήλθεν ο φθόγγος αυτών, Και εις τα πέρατα της οικουμένης οι λόγοι αυτών.
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 Αλλά λέγω, Μη δεν εγνώρισεν ο Ισραήλ; Πρώτος ο Μωϋσής λέγει· Εγώ θέλω σας παροξύνει εις ζηλοτυπίαν με τους μη έθνος, Θέλω σας παροργίσει με έθνος ασύνετον.
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 Ο δε Ησαΐας αποτολμά και λέγει· Ευρέθην παρά των μη ζητούντων με, εφανερώθην εις τους μη ερωτώντας περί εμού.
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 Προς δε τον Ισραήλ λέγει· Όλην την ημέραν εξέτεινα τας χείρας μου προς λαόν απειθούντα και αντιλέγοντα.
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 …
