If

For, as many as are of works of law, are, under a curse, - for it is written - Accursed, is everyone that continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law to do them.

I do not set aside the favour of God; for, if, through law, is righteousness, then, Christ, without cause, died.

For, not through means of law, doth the promise belong unto Abraham or unto his seed, - that he should be heir of thee world; but, through a righteousness by faith.

And, if children, heirs also - heirs, indeed, of God, but co-heirs with Christ, - if, at least, we are suffering together, in order that we may also be glorified together.

But

Now, unto Abraham, were spoken the promises - and unto his seed; - He saith not - and unto thy seeds, as of many, but, as of one - and unto thy seed, which is Christ:

O ye Seed of Abraham - his servants, Sons of Jacob - his chosen ones:

Who is a GOD like unto thee, taking away the iniquity - and passing over the transgression - of the remnant of his inheritance? He hath not held fast, perpetually, his anger, for, one who delighteth in lovingkindness, is he!

He hath laid hold of Israel his servant, to be mindful of mercies:

In order that, not slothful, ye may become, but imitators of them who, through faith and patience, were becoming heirs of the promises.
