← Romans 10:5	Romans 10:6 (KJV)	Romans 10:7 →
For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.	But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down [from above:])	Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
