Romans 10:3-13

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

3 They don't understand [how to receive] God's approval. So they try to set up their own way to get it, and they have not accepted God's way for receiving his approval.

4 Christ is the fulfillment of Moses' Teachings so that everyone who has faith may receive God's approval.

5 Moses writes about receiving God's approval by following his laws. He says, "The person who obeys laws will live because of the laws he obeys."

6 However, Scripture says about God's approval which is based on faith, "Don't ask yourself who will go up to heaven," (that is, to bring Christ down).

7 "Don't ask who will go down into the depths," (that is, to bring Christ back from the dead).

8 However, what else does it say? "This message is near you. It's in your mouth and in your heart." This is the message of faith that we spread.

9 If you declare that Jesus is Lord, and believe that God brought him back to life, you will be saved.

10 By believing you receive God's approval, and by declaring your faith you are saved.

11 Scripture says, "Whoever believes in him will not be ashamed."

12 There is no difference between Jews and Greeks. They all have the same Lord, who gives his riches to everyone who calls on him.

13 So then, "Whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

New International Version NIV

3 Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.

4 Christ is the culmination of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.

5 Moses writes this about the righteousness that is by the law: “The person who does these things will live by them.”

6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ down)

7 “or ‘Who will descend into the deep?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).

8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim:

9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

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.”

12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him,

13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
