⁴ For ^(A)Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

^16 (A)knowing that a man is not ^[a]justified by the works of the law but ^(B)by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not ^(C)by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.

² This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, ^(A)or by the hearing of faith?

¹³ And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, ^14 (A)having wiped out the ^[a]handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. ^15 (B)Having disarmed ^(C)principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.

¹⁶ So let no one ^(D)judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a ^[b]festival or a new moon or sabbaths, ^17 (E)which are a shadow of things to come, but the ^[c]substance is of Christ.
