5
Moses writes concerning the righteousness that comes from the law, that "the person who does these things will live by them."
6
But the righteousness that comes from 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 abyss?' " (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).
8
But what does it say? "The word is near you, on your lips and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim);
9
because if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
