If

For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse, for it is written, "Cursed [is] everyone who does not abide by all [the things] that are written in the book of the law to do them."

I do not declare invalid the grace of God, for if righteousness [is] through the law, then Christ died to no purpose.

For the promise to Abraham or to his descendants, [that] he would be heir of the world, [was] not through the law, but through the righteousness by faith.

and if children, also heirs--heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer together [with him] so that we may also be glorified together [with him].

But

Now to Abraham and to his descendant the promises were spoken. It does not say, "and to descendants," as concerning many, but as concerning one, "and to your descendant," who is Christ.

O offspring of Abraham his servant, [you] descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.

Who [is] a God like you, forgiving sin and passing over rebellion for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, for he delights in loyal love.

He has helped Israel his servant, remembering [his] mercy,

in order that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who inherit the promises through faith and patience.

General references

[It was] not with our ancestors [that] Yahweh made this covenant, [but with] these [of] us [who are] here alive today.
