若恃法為嗣子、則信歸烏有、許亦無益、

若是属乎律法的人才得为后嗣，信就归于虚空，应许也就废弃了。

若是属于律法的人才是后嗣，信就落空了，应许也就失效了。

若是属于律法的人才是后嗣，信就落空了，应许也就失效了。

如果只有遵行律法的人才可以承受应许，信心就没有价值，上帝的应许也就落了空。

如果属于律法的人才能成为后嗣，信就没有作用，应许也就落空了。

这是因为，如果本于律法的才是继承人，信就落了空，应许也就无效了。

若是屬乎律法的人才得為後嗣，信就歸於虛空，應許也就廢棄了。

若是屬於律法的人才是後嗣，信就落空了，應許也就失效了。

如果屬於律法的人才能成為後嗣，信就沒有作用，應許也就落空了。

假使本着律法的人才是承受產業的，那麼信就落了空，應許也就失效了。

這是因為，如果本於律法的才是繼承人，信就落了空，應許也就無效了。

若由律者為嗣、信則虛、許亦廢矣、

若屬律法者為嗣子、則信歸於虛、所許亦廢矣、

若惟屬於律法者得為嗣子、是不啻廢棄信德、而致恩諾於無效也。

For if those who depend on the law are heirs, faith means nothing and the promise is worthless,

Do those who depend on the law receive the promise? If they do, faith would mean nothing. God’s promise would be worthless.

For if it is the adherents of the law who are to be the heirs, faith is null and the promise is void.

If God’s promise is only for those who obey the law, then faith is not necessary and the promise is pointless.

If those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made empty and the promise nullified,

For if those who are of the Law are heirs, then faith is made void and the promise is nullified;

For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of no effect,

For if they that are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of none effect:

If those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made empty and the promise is canceled.

For if they which are of the law[ be] heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

For if they become heirs by the law, faith is empty and the promise is nullified.

For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of no effect.

若嗣業由恃法、則非由應許矣、然上帝實恩賜亞伯拉罕、以應許焉、然則律法何以、曰、律法為有罪者設、待所應許之裔至、且律法藉天使賜中保以傳、中保設於二者之間、上帝其一也、曰、律法與上帝之許相反乎、非也、若所賜之法、能使人生、則恃法可稱義矣、但經明言萬人有罪、惟信耶穌基督、可得所許之福、夫以信稱義之道未著、我眾為法所拘幽、以俟信道之顯、法為啟蒙之師、引我至基督、使以信稱義、

如夫聞而廢之、則所許之願、自戒之言、不必行、夫既不允、耶和華將釋之。

耶和華兮、人廢爾律例、故爾必降罰、今及其時兮、

蓋在斯土、猶大及耶路撒冷人之謀、我必敗之、使陷於敵手、殞於鋒刃、其尸駭為飛鳥走獸所食。

然則以信廢法乎、曰、否、更守法焉、

我不負上帝恩、若恃法而稱義、則基督之死徒然矣、

恃法稱義者、棄基督、絕恩道、

故應許本乎信、實由上帝恩、而應許益堅、且及苗裔、其為裔、不惟遵法、乃效吾父亞伯拉罕之信、

律法所立為祭司長者、不能無疵、若律法後之誓、則立上帝子為祭司長、永為完人、

欲恆賴基督、非以己守法稱義、乃以信基督、即上帝以人信主而稱義、

律法未臻於大成、更創新法、使我愈能望福、近上帝前、

我言既出、非徒然也、必成我旨、行我意。

如夫聞言而廢之、必負其罪。
