Galatians 3:6-11
New American Standard Bible
6 Just as (A)Abraham (B)believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness. 7 Therefore, recognize that (C)it is those who are of faith who are (D)sons of Abraham. 8 The Scripture, foreseeing that God [a]would justify the [b]Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “(E)All the nations will be blessed in you.” 9 So then, (F)those who are of faith are blessed with [c]Abraham, the believer.
10 For all who are of works of [d]the Law are under a curse; for it is written: “(G)Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the things written in the book of the Law, to do them.” 11 Now, that (H)no one is justified [e]by [f]the Law before God is evident; for, “[g](I)the righteous one will live by faith.”

Galatians 3:6-11
New International Version
6 So also Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”[a](A)
7 Understand, then, that those who have faith(B) are children of Abraham.(C) 8 Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”[b](D) 9 So those who rely on faith(E) are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.(F)
10 For all who rely on the works of the law(G) are under a curse,(H) as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”[c](I) 11 Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God,(J) because “the righteous will live by faith.”[d](K)
