So then, (A)those who are of faith are blessed with [a]Abraham, the believer.

10 For all who are of works of [b]the Law are under a curse; for it is written: “(B)Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the things written in the book of the Law, to do them.” 11 Now, that (C)no one is justified [c]by [d]the Law before God is evident; for, “[e](D)the righteous one will live by faith.” 12 [f]However, the Law is not [g]of faith; on the contrary, “(E)The person who performs [h]them will live by [i]them.” 13 Christ (F)redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written: “(G)Cursed is everyone who hangs on (H)a [j]tree”— 14 in order that (I)in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles, so that we (J)would receive (K)the promise of the Spirit through faith.
