darum daß kein Fleisch durch des Gesetzes Werke vor ihm gerecht sein kann; denn durch das Gesetz kommt Erkenntnis der Sünde.
Porque por las obras de la ley ninguna carne se justificará delante de Él; porque por la ley es el conocimiento del pecado.
Porque por las obras de la ley ningún ser humano será justificado ante él, pues por medio de la ley viene el conocimiento del pecado.
Car nul ne sera justifié devant lui par les oeuvres de la loi, puisque c'est par la loi que vient la connaissance du péché.
Perciocchè niuna carne sarà giustificata dinanzi a lui per le opere della legge; poichè per la legge è data conoscenza del peccato.
Por isso nenhuma carne será justificada diante dele pelas obras da lei, porque pela lei vem o conhecimento do pecado.
所以,凡血肉之軀沒有一個能因律法的行為而在上帝面前稱義,因為律法本是要人認識罪。
