Galatians 3:13-15
Holman Christian Standard Bible
13 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us,(A) because it is written: Everyone who is hung on a tree is cursed.(B)[a] 14 The purpose was that the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles by Christ Jesus, so that we could receive the promised Spirit through faith.(C)
15 Brothers, I’m using a human illustration.[b] No one sets aside or makes additions to even a human covenant[c] that has been ratified.

Galatians 3:13-15
New International Version
13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law(A) by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”[a](B) 14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus,(C) so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.(D)
The Law and the Promise
15 Brothers and sisters,(E) let me take an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case.
