Galatians 3:6-11
English Standard Version
Galatians 3:6-11
English Standard Version
6 just as (A)Abraham “believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”?
7 Know then that it is (B)those of faith who are (C)the sons of Abraham. 8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that (D)God would justify[a] the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, (E)“In you shall all the nations be blessed.” 9 So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
The Righteous Shall Live by Faith
10 For all who rely on works of the law are (F)under a curse; for it is written, (G)“Cursed be everyone who does not (H)abide by all things written in the Book of the Law, and do them.” 11 Now it is evident that (I)no one is justified before God by the law, for (J)“The righteous shall live by faith.”[b]

Galatians 3:6-11
New International Version
Galatians 3:6-11
New International Version
6 So also Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”[a](A)
7 Understand, then, that those who have faith(B) are children of Abraham.(C) 8 Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”[b](D) 9 So those who rely on faith(E) are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.(F)
10 For all who rely on the works of the law(G) are under a curse,(H) as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”[c](I) 11 Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God,(J) because “the righteous will live by faith.”[d](K)
