以色列民、以法求稱義而不得、何歟、

義塞人求義於律法之中、而終未之得也。

然則何耶、以色列所求未得、惟蒙選者得之、餘則頑耳、

人守全律而蹶於一、是干眾律也、蓋言毋淫者、亦言毋殺、爾若不淫而殺、則為干律者、

我復證之、凡受割者、宜行全律、爾欲由律見義者、乃絕於基督、而隕於恩矣、

依熱衷則窘逐教會、依律中之義、則無間然、

我為之證、彼為上帝熱衷、但不依真知焉、蓋不識上帝之義、而求立己之義、故不服上帝之義也、夫律盡於基督、致義夫諸信者、

凡由行律者服詛、記有之、不恆於律之所載而悉行者見詛、無人於上帝前、因律見義也、明矣、蓋義者將由信而生、

然則將何言耶、異邦人未趨義而得義、即由信之義也、惟以色列人趨義之律而不及、此何故耶、曰不由於信、而由於行、乃蹶於躓人之石、

然則律與上帝之許相反乎、非也、若賜以能致生之律、則義誠由律矣、

若由律者為嗣、信則虛、許亦廢矣、蓋律以致怒、無律則無犯、

凡爾逐義、求耶和華者、尚其聽予、爾所被鑿而出之磐、被掘而出之坎、當追思焉、

蓋於上帝前、無人因行律見義、第由律知罪耳、○
