¹⁴ But how shall they call on him, on whom they believed not? How shall they believe on him of whom they have not heard? How shall they hear without a preacher? ¹⁵ And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of them which bring glad tidings of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things." ¹⁶ But they have not all obeyed to the gospel. For Isaiah saith, "Lord, who shall believe our sayings?" ¹⁷ So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing cometh by the word of God. ¹⁸ But I ask, Have they not heard? No doubt, their sound went out into all lands: and their words into the ends of the world.

¹⁹ But I demand whether Israel did know or not? First Moses saith, "I will provoke you for to envy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you."

²⁰ Isaiah, after that, is bold and saith, "I am found of them that sought me not, and have appeared to them that asked not after me."

²¹ And against Israel he saith, "All day long have I stretched forth my hands unto a people that believeth not, but speaketh against me."
