(10)For as many as are of works of law are under a curse; for it is written: Cursed is every one that continues not in all the things written in the book of the law, to do them. (11)And that in the law no one is justified with God, is evident; because, the just shall live by faith. (12)Now the law is not of faith; but, he that has done them shall live in them. (13)Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; because it is written: Cursed is every one that is hanged on a tree; (14)that unto the Gentiles the blessing of Abraham might come in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. (15)Brethren, I speak after the manner of men. If a covenant has been confirmed, though it be a man's, no one sets it aside, or adds thereto. (16)Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He says not, and to seeds, as concerning many; but as concerning one, and to thy seed, which is Christ. (17)But this I say, that a covenant before confirmed by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul, to make the promise of no effect. (18)For if the inheritance is of law, it is no more of promise; but God has freely given it to Abraham by promise. (19)What then is the law? It was added because of the transgressions, until the seed should come to whom the promise has been made; having been ordained through angels, by the hand of a mediator. (20)Now the mediator is not of one; but God is one. (21)Is then the law against the promises of God? Far be it! For if a law had been given which is able to make alive, truly righteousness would have been of law. (22)But the Scripture shut up all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. (23)But before faith came, we were guarded under law, shut up unto the faith which was to be revealed. (24)So that the law has become our schoolmaster, unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. (25)But faith having come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. (26)For ye are all sons of God by faith in Christ Jesus. (27)For all ye who were immersed unto Christ[3:27], did put on Christ. (28)There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is no male and female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. (29)And if ye are Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, heirs according to the promise. IV.
