1 Brethren, truly the preference of my heart, and supplication to Yahweh is for preservation on their behalf.2 I attest to them that they have zeal for Yahweh, but not in accordance with full knowledge.3 Ignorant of the justice of Yahweh, and seeking to establish their own justice, to the justice of Yahweh they would not submit.4 Indeed Christ is the fulfillment of the law for justice to each one that is trusting.5 Moses writes of the justice which is from of the law, "That a man who practices these things shall have life by them."6 But righteousness from faith speaks in this manner: "You should not in your heart say: who shall ascend into the heaven?" That is to say, to bring Christ down.7 Or "Who shall descend into the abyss?" That is to say, to bring the Anointed up from among the dead.8 But rather what does it say? "The word is near to you, in your mouth and in your heart:" that is to say, the word of the faith that we proclaim,9 that if by your mouth you were to agree with Prince Yahshua, and trust in your heart that Yahweh has raised Him from among the dead, you shall be delivered.10 With the heart one believes in justice, and with the mouth one agrees in deliverance.11 Indeed the writings say, "All who are trusting of Him shall not be ashamed."12 For there is no distinction of Judaean and Greek; since the Prince Himself is of all riches to all those calling upon Him.13 Indeed "all who would call on the name of Yahweh shall be delivered."14 How then would they call to Him that they have not believed? And how would they believe of Him they have not heard? And how would they hear apart from proclamation?15 And how would they proclaim, unless they are sent? Just as it is written, "How fair are the feet of those bringing the good news of good things."16 But they have not all listened to the good message. Indeed Isaiah says, "Yahweh, who has believed our report?"17 So then, faith is from hearing, but through hearing the word of Christ.18 But I say, have they not heard? Yea, rather, "into all the land went out their voice, and to the western extremities of the habitable world their words."19 Then I say, had Israel not known? Firstly, Moses says, "I will provoke you to jealousy by a nation that is not, by a nation without understanding I will provoke you to anger."20 Then Isaiah very boldly says, "I am found by those not seeking Me, I am become manifest to those not inquiring of Me."21 Then to Israel he says, "The whole day long I stretch out My hands to a disobedient and contradictory people."
