# who are righteous before God
"whom God considers righteous"
# but it is the doers of the law
"but it is those who obey the law of Moses"
# who will be justified
You can translate this in an active form. Alternate translation: "whom God will accept" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
