Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is for their salvation.
1Fratres, voluntas quidem cordis mei, et obsecratio ad Deum, fit pro illis in salutem.
2For I testify about them that they are zealous for God, but not on the basis of knowledge.
2Testimonium enim perhibeo illis quod æmulationem Dei habent, sed non secundum scientiam.
3Because they were ignorant of God’s righteousness and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.
3Ignorantes enim justitiam Dei, et suam quærentes statuere, justitiæ Dei non sunt subjecti.
4For Christ is the end of the law, to bring righteousness to everyone who believes.
4Finis enim legis, Christus, ad justitiam omni credenti.
5For concerning the righteousness that is by the law, Moses writes: “The man who does these things will live by them.”
5Moyses enim scripsit, quoniam justitiam, quæ ex lege est, qui fecerit homo, vivet in ea.
6But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down)
6Quæ autem ex fide est justitia, sic dicit: Ne dixeris in corde tuo: Quis ascendet in cælum? id est, Christum deducere:
7or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).”
7aut, Quis descendet in abyssum? hoc est, Christum a mortuis revocare.
8But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming:
8Sed quid dicit Scriptura? Prope est verbum in ore tuo, et in corde tuo: hoc est verbum fidei, quod prædicamus.
9that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
9Quia si confitearis in ore tuo Dominum Jesum, et in corde tuo credideris quod Deus illum suscitavit a mortuis, salvus eris.
10For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved.
10Corde enim creditur ad justitiam: ore autem confessio fit ad salutem.
11It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
11Dicit enim Scriptura: Omnis qui credit in illum, non confundetur.
12For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him,
12Non enim est distinctio Judæi et Græci: nam idem Dominus omnium, dives in omnes qui invocant illum.
13for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
13Omnis enim quicumque invocaverit nomen Domini, salvus erit.
14How then can they call on the One in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach?
14Quomodo ergo invocabunt, in quem non crediderunt? aut quomodo credent ei, quem non audierunt? quomodo autem audient sine prædicante?
15And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
15quomodo vero prædicabunt nisi mittantur? sicut scriptum est: Quam speciosi pedes evangelizantium pacem, evangelizantium bona !
16But not all of them welcomed the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”
16Sed non omnes obediunt Evangelio. Isaias enim dicit: Domine, quis credidit auditui nostro?
17Consequently, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
17Ergo fides ex auditu, auditus autem per verbum Christi.
18But I ask, did they not hear? Indeed they did: “Their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”
18Sed dico: Numquid non audierunt? Et quidem in omnem terram exivit sonus eorum, et in fines orbis terræ verba eorum.
19I ask instead, did Israel not understand? First, Moses says: “I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation without understanding.”
19Sed dico: Numquid Israël non cognovit? Primus Moyses dicit: Ego ad æmulationem vos adducam in non gentem: in gentem insipientem, in iram vos mittam.
20And Isaiah boldly says: “I was found by those who did not seek Me; I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me.”
20Isaias autem audet, et dicit: Inventus sum a non quærentibus me: palam apparui iis qui me non interrogabant.
21But as for Israel he says: “All day long I have held out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people.”
21Ad Israël autem dicit: Tota die expandi manus meas ad populum non credentem, et contradicentem.
