Galatians 3:12

3:12 But the law is not based on faith, but the one who does the works of the law will live by them.

tn Grk “is not from faith.”

tn Grk “who does these things”; the referent (the works of the law, see 3:5) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

sn A quotation from Lev 18:5. The phrase the works of the law is an editorial expansion on the Greek text (see previous note); it has been left as normal typeface to indicate it is not part of the OT text.
