# For by grace you have been saved through faith
God's kindness to us is the reason he made it possible for us to be saved from judgment if we simply trust in Jesus. Alternate translation: "God saved you by grace because of your faith in him" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
# this did not
The word "this" refers back to "by grace you have been saved by faith."
# God, not from works and so no one may boast
"God. Grace is not based on what a person does, so that no one can boast and say that they earned it"
