^28 [a]For ^(A)we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from works ^[b]of the Law.

¹⁶ nevertheless, knowing that ^(A)a person is not justified by works of ^[a]the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by ^(B)faith in Christ and not by works of ^[b]the Law; since ^(C)by works of ^[c]the Law no ^[d]flesh will be justified.

² This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit by works of ^[a]the Law, or by ^(A)hearing ^[b]with faith?

⁵ So then, does He who ^(A)provides you with the Spirit and ^(B)works ^[a]miracles among you, do it by works of ^[b]the Law, or by ^(C)hearing ^[c]with faith?
