And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 12 is found in chapter 3 of Galatians. Dependence on works of the law places a person under the logic of total obedience. Paul contrasts this with Habakkuk’s statement that the righteous will live by faith, establishing two different principles for understanding the relationship with God.

Das Gesetz aber ist nicht des Glaubens; sondern "der Mensch, der es tut, wird dadurch leben."
La ley también no es de la fe; sino, El hombre que los hiciere, vivirá en ellos.
Pero la Ley no se basa en la fe, sino que dice: «El que cumpla estas cosas vivirá por ellas».
Or, la loi ne procède pas de la foi; mais elle dit: Celui qui mettra ces choses en pratique vivra par elles.
Ma la legge non è di fede; anzi: L’uomo che avrà fatte queste cose viverà per esse.
Ora, a lei não é da fé; mas o homem, que fizer estas coisas, por elas viverá.
律法並不出於信,而是說:「行這些事的就必因此得生。」
