Galatians 3:10-12
New English Translation
10 For all who[a] rely on doing the works of the law are under a curse, because it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not keep on doing everything written in the book of the law.”[b] 11 Now it is clear no one is justified before God by the law, because the righteous one will live by faith.[c] 12 But the law is not based on faith,[d] but the one who does the works of the law[e] will live by them.[f]
