Galatians 2:16

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

know that a man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.

World English Bible (WEB)

yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the law, because no flesh will be justified by the works of the law.

Strong's King James

Knowing{G1492}{(G5761)} that{G3754} a man{G444} is{G1344} not{G3756} justified{G1344}{(G5743)} by{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law{G3551}, but{G3362} by{G1223} the faith{G4102} of Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547}, even{G2532} we{G2249} have believed{G4100}{(G5656)} in{G1519} Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547}, that{G2443} we might be justified{G1344}{(G5686)} by{G1537} the faith{G4102} of Christ{G5547}, and{G2532} not{G3756} by{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law{G3551}: for{G1360} by{G1537} the works{G2041} of the law{G3551} shall{G1344} no{G3756}{G3956} flesh{G4561} be justified{G1344}{(G5701)}.

The F.O.G *

(16) but know that a man isn't declared righteous from works of Torah-Law but through believing-faith in Mashiach Yeshua! We've believed in Mashiach ישוע Yeshua so that we may be declared righteous from believing-faith in Mashiach. Not by works of Tora-Law because from works of Torah-Law nobody, no flesh, will be declared righteous.

The F.O.G Message *

[16] know that no one is made right with יהוה by following religious rules. It happens only through faith in Jesus the Messiah. So we too have put our trust in the Messiah Jesus, being made right with יהוה through faith in Him, not by rule-keeping—because no one will ever be justified by following religious laws.

Young's Literal Translation

having known also that a man is not declared righteous by works of law, if not through the faith of Jesus Christ, also we in Christ Jesus did believe, that we might be declared righteous by the faith of Christ, and not by works of law, wherefore declared righteous by works of law shall be no flesh.’

After a dramatic early morning encounter with King Jesus, I just couldn’t put my Bible down. The F.O.G took a hold of me and this website was born. Learn more about the F.O.G.
