17 For in it the hrighteousness of God is irevealed from faith for faith,1 as it is written, j“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 of whom they have never heard?1 And nhow are they to hear without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, o“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”
17 So rfaith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
18 Where there is no prophetic vision the people jcast off restraint,1
but kblessed is he who keeps the law.
7 And he will swallow up on this mountain
the covering that is cast over all peoples,
the 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 yAnd nations shall come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your rising.
