10 For all who rely on works of the law are ^junder a curse; for it is written, ^k“Cursed be everyone who does not abide by ^lall things written in the Book of the Law, and do them.” 11 Now it is evident that ^mno one is justified before God by the law, for ⁿ“The righteous shall live by faith.”¹ 12 But the law is not of faith, rather ^o“The one who does them shall live by them.” 13 Christ ^predeemed us from the curse of the law by ^qbecoming a curse for us—for it is written, ^r“Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a ^stree”— 14 ^tso that in Christ Jesus the ^ublessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive ^vthe promised Spirit² through faith.
