Galatians 3:8-12

8The Scripture, foreseeing that God 1would justify the 2Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “3All the nations will be blessed in you.” 9So then, 4those who are of faith are blessed with 5Abraham, the believer.

10For all who are of works of 6the Law are under a curse; for it is written: “7Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the things written in the book of the Law, to do them.” 11Now, that 8no one is justified 9by 10the Law before God is evident; for, “11 12the righteous one will live by faith.” 12 13However, the Law is not 14of faith; on the contrary, “15The person who performs 16them will live by 17them.”
