This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

10. πιστεύεται = faith is formed, there is a state of faith, the condition, on man’s side, of the state of righteousness.

ὁμολογεῖται = confession is made, a state of confession, the necessary condition for σωτηρία. The present tense in both cases marks the state of man’s mind, not the mere act.

δικαιοσύνην—σωτηρίαν. The parallelism shows that the words are practically synonymous.
