Romans 10:15-21
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 And how can people preach unless they are sent? As it is written,(A) “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring [the] good news!”[a] 16 But not everyone has heeded the good news; for Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed what was heard from us?”(B) 17 Thus faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the word of Christ.(C) 18 But I ask, did they not hear? Certainly they did; for
“Their voice has gone forth to all the earth,
and their words to the ends of the world.”(D)
19 But I ask, did not Israel understand?(E) First Moses says:
“I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation;
with a senseless nation I will make you angry.”
20 (F)Then Isaiah speaks boldly and says:
“I was found [by] those who were not seeking me;
I revealed myself to those who were not asking for me.”
21 But regarding Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contentious people.”

19 Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says,
“I will make you envious(G) by those who are not a nation;
I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding.”[d](H)
20 And Isaiah boldly says,
“I was found by those who did not seek me;
I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me.”[e](I)
21 But concerning Israel he says,
