Galatians 2:16-17

16nevertheless, knowing that 1a person is not justified by works of 2the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by 3faith in Christ and not by works of 4the Law; since 5by works of 6the Law no 7flesh will be justified.
