¹Brothers, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.

¹Anayeác, ene bihotzeco affectione ona eta Iaincoagana Israelgatic eguiten dudan othoitzá da salua ditecen.

²For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

²Ecen testimoniage ekarten drauet, nola Iaincoaren zeloa badutén, baina ez scientiaren araura.

³For being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

³Ecen Iaincoaren iustitiá eçagutzen eztutelaric, eta bere iustitia fundatu nahiz dabiltzalaric, Iaincoaren iustitiari etzaizca susmettitu.

⁴For Christ is the fulfillment or, completion, or end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

⁴Ecen Leguearen fina Christ da, sinhesten duen guciaren iustitiatan.

⁵For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, “The one who does them will live by them.” Leviticus 18:5

⁵Ecen Moysesec-ere scribatzen du Leguetic den iustitiáz, Ecen gauça hec eguinen dituen guiçona, heçaz vicico dela.

⁶But the righteousness which is of faith says this, “Don’t say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ Deuteronomy 30:12 (that is, to bring Christ down);

⁶Baina fedez den iustitiác, hunela erraiten du, Ezterrála eure bihotzean, Nor iganen da cerura? hori duc Christen garaitic erekartea.

⁷or, ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ Deuteronomy 30:13 (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)”

⁷Edo, nor iautsiren da abysmera? hori duc Christen hiletaric harçara erekartea.

⁸But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart”; Deuteronomy 30:14 that is, the word of faith, which we preach:

⁸Baina cer erraiten du? Hire hurbil duc hitza hire ahoan eta hire bihotzean. Haur da fedeazco hitz predicatzen duguna.

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

⁹Ecen baldin confessa badeçac eure ahoz Iesus Iauna, eta eure bihotzean sinhets badeçac, ecen Iaincoac hura hiletaric resuscitatu duela, saluaturen aiz.

¹⁰For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

¹⁰Ecen bihotzez sinhesten da iustificatu içateco, eta ahoz confssione eguiten saluatu içateco.

¹¹For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.” Isaiah 28:16

¹¹Ecen erraiten du Scripturác, Nor-ere baita hura baithan sinhesten duena, ezta confus içanen.

¹²For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.

¹²Ecen ezta differentiaric Iuduaren eta Grecoaren artean: ecen gucién Iaun bera da abrats, hura inuocatzen duten gucietara.

¹³For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Joel 2:32

¹³Ecen norere baita Iaunaren icena inuocaturen duena, saluaturen da.

¹⁴How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?

¹⁴Nolatan bada inuocaturen duté hura baithan sinhetsi vkan eztutenéc: eta nolatan sinhetsiren duté harçaz ençun vkan eztutenéc? eta nolatan ençunen duté predicaçaleric gabe?

¹⁵And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!” Isaiah 52:7

¹⁵Eta nolatan predicaturen duté baldin igor ezpaditez? scribatua den beçala, O cein eder diraden baquea euangelizatzen dutenén oinac, gauça onac euangelizatzen dituztenenac!

¹⁶But they didn’t all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?” Isaiah 53:1

¹⁶Baina guciac etzaizquio behatu içan Euangelioari, ecen Esaiasec erraiten du, Iauna, norc sinhetsi du gure predicationea?

¹⁷So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

¹⁷Beraz fedea ençutetic da: eta ençutea Iaincoaren hitzaz.

¹⁸But I say, didn’t they hear? Yes, most certainly, “Their sound went out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.” Psalm 19:4

¹⁸Baina galdez nago, ala eztute ençun vkan? Bainaitzitic lur orotara ilki içan da hayen soinuä, eta munduaren bazterretarano hayén hitzac.

¹⁹But I ask, didn’t Israel know? First Moses says, “I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, with a nation void of understanding I will make you angry.” Deuteronomy 32:31

¹⁹Baina galdez nago, ala Israelec eztu Iaincoa eçagutu vkan? Lehenic Moysesec erraiten du, Nic ielosgoatara prouocaturen çaituztét gende gende-eztenaz, gende adimendu gabe batez asserre eraciren çaituztét.

²⁰Isaiah is very bold, and says, “I was found by those who didn’t seek me. I was revealed to those who didn’t ask for me.” Isaiah 65:1

²⁰Eta Esaiasec hardieça hartzen du, eta erraiten, Eriden içan naiz bilhatzen eznindutenéz, eta claroqui aguertu içan natzaye ene galderic eguiten etzuteney.

²¹But as to Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.” Isaiah 65:2

²¹Baina Israelez den becembatean erraiten du, Egun gucian hedatu vkan ditut neure escuac populu desobedientagana eta contrastatzen denagana.
