17 For in it hthe righteousness of God is revealed ifrom faith for faith,1 jas it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”2
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him uof whom they have never heard?1 And how are they to hear vwithout someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, w“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”
17 So zfaith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
18 Where zthere is no prophetic vision the people acast off restraint,1
but blessed is he who bkeeps the law.
7 And he will swallow up son this mountain
the covering that is cast over all peoples,
uthe veil that is spread over all nations.
2 For behold, darkness shall cover the earth,
and thick darkness the peoples;
but the Lord will arise upon you,
and his glory will be seen upon you.
3 dAnd nations shall come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your rising.
