\subsection{Galatians 3} \VS{1} O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly shown forth crucified among you? \VS{2} This only I wish to learn from you, from works of law did you receive the spirit or from hearing of faith? Are you thus foolish? Having begun in [the] spirit are you completed\footnote{or ``perfected''} by [the] flesh? \VS{4} Have you suffered so many [things] without reason? If it indeed [be] without reason. \VS{5} The [one] therefore providing to you the spirit, and working ability in you, [Is it] from works of [the] law or from hearing of faith? \VS{6} Just as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him for justness. \VS{7} Be knowing therefore that those from faith, these are sons [of] Abraham. \VS{8} For the scripture, having foreseen that from faith would God be justifying the nations, pre-good-newsed to Abraham that: All the nations will be blessed in you. \VS{9} So those from trust are blessed with trustworthy Abraham. \VS{10} For as many as are from [the] works of [the] law, they are under [a] curse, for it is written\footnote{Deut.27:26} that: All [are] accursed who do not remain in everything written in the scroll of the law, to do them. \VS{11} For that in [the] law is no one justified before God [is] evident, because: The just will zoe-live\fnZoe{} from faith. \VS{12} But the law is not from faith, but the [one] having done them will zoe-live\fnZoe{} in them. \VS{13} Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become [the] curse in our behalf, for it is written\footnote{Deut.21:22-23}: \begin{verse} Cursed [is] everyone hanging upon [the] tree, \end{verse} \VS{14} in order that the blessing of Abraham become to the nations in Christ Jesus, in order that we receive the promise of the spirit through faith. \VS{15} Brothers, I speak according to man. Likewise no man having ratified [a] contract\footnote{or ``will'', ``testament'', ``covenant''} sets it aside or adds to [it]. \VS{16} So the promises were told to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say: And to his seed, as upon many, but as upon one: And to his seed, who is Christ. \VS{17} But this he says: The law having come to be after 430 years did not invalidate the contract\footnote{or ``will'', ``testament'', ``covenant''} having been formerly ratified by God, to nullifying the promises. \VS{18} For if the inheritance [is] from law, no longer is it from promise. \VS{19} What therefore [is] the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the seed come to whom it was promised, commanded through angels, in [the] hand of [the] mediator. \VS{20} Now the mediator is not one [thing], but God is one [person]. \VS{21} Is the law therefore according to the promises of God? May it not be: For if the law, being able, was given to make-zoe-alive, justness would certainly have been from [the] law. \VS{22} But the scripture has shut everything under sin in order that the promise from faith in Jesus Christ be given to those believing. \VS{23} But before faith came we, being shut in, were confined for the faith [about] to be revealed. \VS{24} So the law became our tutor to Christ, in order that we be justified from faith. \VS{25} So faith having come we are not longer under [a] tutor. \VS{26} For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. \VS{27} For as many [of you] as were baptized into Christ, you put on Christ. \VS{28} There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female, for you are all one [person] in Christ Jesus. \VS{29} So if you [be] of Christ, then you are seed of Abraham, heirs according to promise.
