Having begun by the Spirit, are you now going to finish by the flesh? \s5 -\v 4 Did you experience so many things for nothing—if indeed it was for nothing? -\v 5 Then does he who gives the Spirit to you and works powerful deeds among you do it by the works of the law or by hearing with faith? +\v 4 Have you suffered so many things for nothing—if indeed it was for nothing? +\v 5 Does he who gives the Spirit to you and works miracles deeds among you do so by the works of the law or by hearing with faith? \s5 -\v 6 Abraham "believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness." -\v 7 In the same way, understand, then, that those who believe are sons of Abraham. -\v 8 The scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith. The gospel was proclaimed beforehand to Abraham: "In you all the nations will be blessed." -\v 9 So then, those who have faith are blessed with Abraham, who had faith. +\v 6 Just as Abraham "believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness," +\v 7 in the same way, understand, then, that it is those of faith who are the children of Abraham. +\v 8 The scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "In you all the nations will be blessed." +\v 9 So then, those who of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith. \s5 -\v 10 Those who rely on the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written, "Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the things written in the book of the law, to do it all." -\v 11 Now it is clear that God justifies no one by the law, for "The righteous will live by faith." -\v 12 The law is not from faith, but instead, "He who does these things in the law will live by the laws." +\v 10 All who rely on the works of the law are under a curse; and so it is written, "Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the things written in the book of the law, and do them." +\v 11 Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because the righteous will live by faith. +\v 12 But the law is not of faith, rather, "The person who does the works of the law must live by them." \s5 -\v 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law when he became a curse for us. For it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree." -\v 14 The purpose was that the blessing that was on Abraham might come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. +\v 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us— for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree"— +\v 14 so that the blessing that of Abraham might come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. \s5 \p -\v 15 Brothers, I speak in human terms. Even when a human contract has been established, no one voids it or adds to it. -\v 16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his descendant. It does not say, "to descendants," referring to many, but instead to only one, "to your descendant," who is Christ. +\v 15 Brothers, let me speak in human terms. In a man-made contract, no one can set it aside or add to it, once it is established by law. +\v 16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his descendant. It does not say, "to descendants," referring to many, but instead to only one, "and to your descendant," who is Christ. \s5 -\v 17 Now I say this. The law, which came 430 years later, does not void the covenant previously established by God. -\v 18 For if the inheritance had come by means of the law, it would no longer have come by means of the promise. But God freely gave it to Abraham through a promise. +\v 17 Now what I mean is this: The law, which came 430 years afterward, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God. +\v 18 For if the inheritance comes by the law, then it no longer comes by promise. But God gave it to Abraham by a promise. \s5 \v 19 Why then was the law given? It was added because of transgressions, until the descendant of Abraham would come to those to whom he had been promised. The law was put into force through angels by the hand of a mediator.
