吾寧能辜負天主之恩寵哉？苟尚緣律法而求義、則基督之死、為徒然矣。』

我不废掉神的恩；义若是藉着律法得的，基督就是徒然死了。

我不废掉上帝的恩；如果义是藉着律法而获得，那么基督就白白死了。

我不废掉神的恩；如果义是藉着律法而获得，那么基督就白白死了。

我不废弃上帝的恩典，倘若靠遵行律法可以成为义人，基督的死便毫无意义了。

我不废弃神的恩；如果义是藉着律法而来的，基督就白白地死了。

我不弃绝神的恩典，因为义如果是藉着律法而来的，那么，基督就白白地死了。

我不廢掉神的恩；義若是藉着律法得的，基督就是徒然死了。

我不廢掉上帝的恩；如果義是藉着律法而獲得，那麼基督就白白死了。

我不廢掉神的恩；如果義是藉着律法而獲得，那麼基督就白白死了。

我不廢棄上帝的恩典，倘若靠遵行律法可以成為義人，基督的死便毫無意義了。

我不廢棄神的恩；如果義是藉著律法而來的，基督就白白地死了。

我不廢棄上帝的恩；稱義的事若是憑着律法可得，基督就白死了。

我不棄絕神的恩典，因為義如果是藉著律法而來的，那麼，基督就白白地死了。

我不虛上帝之恩、蓋義若由律、則基督之死為徒然矣、

我不負上帝恩、若恃法而稱義、則基督之死徒然矣、

我不棄天主恩、若由律法可得稱義、則基督之死徒然矣、

I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!”

I do not get rid of the grace of God. What if a person could become right with God by obeying the law? Then Christ died for nothing!

I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.

I do not treat the grace of God as meaningless. For if keeping the law could make us right with God, then there was no need for Christ to die.

I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.

I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly.”

I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.”

I do not make void the grace of God: for if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nought.

I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.

I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness[ come] by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

I do not set aside God’s grace, because if righteousness could come through the law, then Christ died for nothing!

I don’t reject the grace of God. For if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nothing!”

然則律法豈與恩諾相牴牾乎？無是理也。蓋所賜之律法、苟能予人以生命、則吾人所恃以成義者、誠在律法之中矣。

雖然、既曰蒙恩、則不復憑業；不然、恩將失其所以為恩矣。

夫斯民之受律法也、乃在利未子孫為司祭之時。假使陳制而能躋人於純全之域、則何須復有異軍突起之司祭；而且此司祭何不與亞倫同一支派、而獨與麥基德同一班次耶？

雖然、吾人既知人之成義、非憑律法、惟憑篤信基督、故毅然惟基督是信、亦欲緣篤信基督、不恃律法、而成義耳。無他、血氣之倫、未有僅憑遵行律法、而成義者也。

基督未復活、則吾輩之所傳、爾等之所信、悉屬無稽之談矣。

我葆樂剴切告爾、爾如承受割禮、則基督於爾為無益。不寧惟是、凡承受割禮者、即有遵行全部律法之義務。爾既欲求義於律法之中、則與基督絕緣、而自置於恩寵之外矣。

爾能恪守福音、如吾所傳、則蒙救也必矣。若是而不蒙救者、其惟所信者妄歟？

蓋既昧於天主之義、故惟求自立其義、而不服膺天主之義矣。

倘使吾所破壞者、吾又從而建設之、是吾自承為犯法之人矣。

吾人於此尚有何說？天主友我、誰能敵我？

又曰：『爾曹之所以廢棄天主誡命、而維護爾之習俗者、亦已巧矣！

基督未復活、則爾所信、實為徒然、爾至今且仍在罪中、

列國與兆民千算亦何益。
