Romans 10:13-15

Expanded Bible

¹³ as the Scripture says, “Anyone who calls on the Lord will be saved [Joel 2:32].”

¹⁴ ·But before people can ask the Lord for help, they must believe in him [^LHow, then, can they call on one in whom they have not believed?]; and ·before they can believe in him, they must hear about him [^Lhow can they believe in one of whom they have not heard?]; and ·for them to hear about the Lord, someone must tell them [^Lhow can they hear without someone preaching to them?]; ¹⁵ and ·before someone can go and tell them, that person must be sent [^Lhow can they preach unless they are sent?]. [^LAs] It is written, “How ·beautiful [or welcome; or timely] ·is the person [^Lare the feet of those] who comes ·to bring [proclaiming; preaching] good news [Is. 52:7].”
