We are unable to please God by law-keeping; therefore, Paul exhorts us to “put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified” (Galatians 2:16).
Tunashindwa kumpendeza Mungu kwa kutunza sheria; Kwa hivyo, Paulo hatusihi "Hali tukijua ya kuwa mwanadamu hahesabiwi haki kwa matendo ya sheria, bali kwa imani ya Kristo Yesu, wala si kwa matendo ya sheria; maana kwa matendo ya sheria hakuna mwenye mwili atakayehesabiwa haki." (Wagalatia 2:16).
