Galatians 3:10-14
Legacy Standard Bible
10 For as many as are of the works of [a]the Law are under a curse, for it is written, “(A)Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all things written in the book of the law, to do them.” 11 Now that (B)no one is justified [b]by [c]the Law before God is evident, [d]for “(C)The righteous shall live by faith.” 12 [e]However, the Law is not [f]of faith; rather, “(D)He who does them shall live [g]by them.” 13 Christ (E)redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written, “(F)Cursed is everyone who hangs on (G)a [h]tree”— 14 in order that (H)in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might [i]come to the Gentiles, so that we (I)would receive (J)the promise of the Spirit through faith.

Galatians 3:10-14
International Standard Version
No One is Justified by the Law
10 Certainly all who depend on the actions of the Law are under a curse. For it is written, “A curse on everyone who does not obey everything that is written in the Book of the Law!”[a] 11 Now it is obvious that no one is justified in the sight of God by the Law, because “The righteous will live by faith.”[b] 12 But the Law has nothing to do with faith. Instead, “The person who keeps the commandments[c] will have life in them.”[d] 13 The Messiah[e] redeemed us from the curse of the Law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written, “A curse on everyone who is hung on a tree!”[f] 14 This happened[g] in order that the blessing promised to[h] Abraham would come to the gentiles through the Messiah[i] Jesus, so that we might receive the promised Spirit[j] through faith.
