10 For the one who obeys the whole law but fails[a] in one point has become guilty of all of it.[b] 11 For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,”[c] also said, “Do not murder.”[d] Now if you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a violator of the law. 12 Speak and act as those who will be judged by a law that gives freedom.[e]
