Faith Brings Righteousness

3 ^[a]You foolish ^(A)Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ ^(B)was publicly portrayed as crucified? ² This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit by works of ^[b]the Law, or by ^(C)hearing ^[c]with faith? ³ Are you so foolish? Having begun ^[d]by the Spirit, are you now ^[e]being perfected by the flesh?

⁹ But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be ^(A)known by God, ^(B)how is it that you turn back again to the weak and worthless ^[a](C)elementary principles, to which you want to be enslaved all over again? ¹⁰ You ^(D)meticulously observe days and months and seasons and years. ¹¹ I fear for you, that perhaps I have labored ^[b]over you in vain.
