10For all who are of works of the law are under a curse, for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not remain in all the things written in the book of the law, to do them.”

11It is evident that no one is justified before God by the law, because "The righteous will live by faith."

12But the law is not from faith; rather, “The one who does them will live by them.”

13The Messiah redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, because it is written: “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree.”

14so 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.
