Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Galatians 3
⁵ So then, does He who provides you with the Spirit and works miracles among you, do it by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?
⁶ Even so Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness.
⁷ Therefore, be sure that it is those who are of faith who are sons of Abraham.
⁸ The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "All the nations will be blessed in you."
⁹ So then those who are of faith are blessed with Abraham, the believer.
¹⁰ For as many as are of the works of the Law are under a curse; for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all things written in the book of the law, to perform them."
¹¹ Now that no one is justified by the Law before God is evident; for, "The righteous man shall live by faith."
¹² However, the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, "He who practices them shall live by them."
¹³ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us-for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree"-
¹⁴ in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
¹⁵ Brethren, I speak in terms of human relations: even though it is only a man’s covenant, yet when it has been ratified, no one sets it aside or adds conditions to it.
