Romans 10:8-13 (NT-9)

No one who believes in him will be put to shame.

A reading from the letter of Saint Paul to the Romans.

“The word is near you,
in your mouth and in your heart”
(that is, the word of faith that we preach),
for, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord
and believe in your heart
that God raised him from the dead,
you will be saved.

For one believes with the heart
and so is justified,
and one confesses with the mouth
and so is saved.

For the scripture says,
“No one who believes in him will be put to shame.”
For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek;
the same Lord is Lord of all,
enriching all who call upon him.
For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord
will be saved.”

The Word of the Lord.
