Romans 10:13-15
New English Translation
13 For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.[a]
14 How are they to call on one they have not believed in? And how are they to believe in one they have not heard of? And how are they to hear without someone preaching to them?[b] 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How timely[c] is the arrival[d] of those who proclaim the good news.”[e]
