Galatians 3:10-14
New American Standard Bible
10 For all who are of works of [a]the Law are under a curse; for it is written: “(A)Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the 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; for, “[d](C)the righteous one will live by faith.” 12 [e]However, the Law is not [f]of faith; on the contrary, “(D)The person who performs [g]them will live by [h]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 [i]tree”— 14 in order that (H)in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles, so that we (I)would receive (J)the promise of the Spirit through faith.

Galatians 3:10-14
Lexham English Bible
10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse, for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the things that are written in the book of the law to do them.”[a] 11 Now it is clear that no one is justified in the sight of God by the law, because “the one who is righteous will live by faith.”[b] 12 But the law is not from faith, but “the one who does these things will live by them.”[c]
13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by[d] becoming a curse for us, because it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,”[e] 14 in order that the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
