7. “ ‘Who shall descend into the abyss?’ ” – that is, to bring Messiah up from the dead.
8. But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” – that is, the word of belief which we are proclaiming:
9. That if you confess with your mouth the Master יהושע and believe in your heart that Elohim has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved.
10. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, and so is saved.
11. Because the Scripture says, “Whoever puts his trust in Him shall not be put to shame.”
12. Because there is no distinction between Yehuḏite and Greek, for the same Master of all is rich to all those calling upon Him.
13. For “everyone who calls on the Name of יהוה shall be saved.”
14. How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without one proclaiming?
15. And how shall they proclaim if they are not sent? As it has been written, “How pleasant are the feet of those who bring the Good News of peace, who bring the Good News of the good!”
16. However, not all obeyed the Good News. For Yeshayahu says, “יהוה, who has believed our report?”
17. So then belief comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Elohim.
