Galatians 3:8-10

By Faith, or by Works of the Law?

8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that k God would justify 1 the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, l "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 m under a curse; for it is written, n "Cursed be everyone who does not o abide by all things written in the Book of the Law, and do them."
