那本来使人活的诫命，反而使我死了；

那本来叫人活的诫命，反倒叫我死；

我就死了。那本该叫人活的诫命反而叫我死。

我就死了。那本该叫人活的诫命反而叫我死。

我发现那本来要使人活的诫命反而叫我死，

我却死了。于是我发现，那本该带来生命的诫命，它却导致了死亡。

那本來叫人活的誡命，反倒叫我死；

我就死了。那本該叫人活的誡命反而叫我死。

我就死了。那本該叫人活的誡命反而叫我死。

我發現那本來要使人活的誡命反而叫我死，

那本來使人活的誡命，反而使我死了；

那本來要叫人活的誡命、我見得倒是叫人死的，

我卻死了。於是我發現，那本該帶來生命的誡命，它卻導致了死亡。

是致生之誡、適以致死、

誡本生我、反以死我、

是誡本為致生、反致我死、

夫誡命所以躋我於生也、結果反以致我於死者、何也？

I found that the very commandment that was intended to bring life actually brought death.

I found that the commandment that was supposed to bring life actually brought death.

The very commandment that promised life proved to be death to me.

and I died. So I discovered that the law’s commands, which were supposed to bring life, brought spiritual death instead.

and I died. The commandment that was meant for life resulted in death for me.

and this commandment, which was to result in life, proved to result in death for me;

And the commandment, which was to bring life, I found to bring death.

and the commandment, which was unto life, this I found to be unto death:

and I died. The commandment that was meant for life resulted in death for me.

And the commandment, which[ was ordained] to life, I found[ to be] unto death.

论到出于律法的义，摩西写着说：“遵行这些事的人就必因这些事而活。”

所以你们要谨守我的律例和典章；人应该遵行这些，按照它们生活，我是耶和华。

可是他们的儿女背叛了我，没有遵行我的律例，也没有谨守实行我的典章（人如果遵行这些律例典章，就必因此活着），亵渎了我的安息日；那时我说我要把我的烈怒倒在他们身上，在旷野向他们发尽我的怒气。

我把我的律例赐给他们，把我的典章指示他们；人如果遵行，就必因此活着。

他回答：“你要全心、全性、全力、全意爱主你的神，并且要爱邻舍如同自己。”耶稣说：“你答得对，你这样行，就必得生命。”那人想证明自己有理，就对耶稣说：“谁是我的邻舍呢？”

如果那以文字刻在石上使人死的律法的工作，尚且带有荣光，以致以色列人因着摩西脸上短暂的荣光，不能注视他的脸，

律法本来不是出于信，而是说：“遵行这些事的人，就必因这些事而活。”

可是以色列家在旷野背叛了我，没有遵行我的律例，弃绝了我的典章（人如果遵行这些，就必因此活着），大大亵渎了我的安息日，那时我说我要把我的烈怒倒在他们身上，在旷野把他们灭绝。
