Deuteronomy 27:26

27:26 ‘Cursed is the one who refuses to keep the words of this law.’ Then all the people will say, ‘Amen!’

Psalms 119:6

119:6 Then I would not be ashamed,

if ¹  I were focused on ²  all your commands.

Psalms 119:128

119:128 For this reason I carefully follow all your precepts. ³ 

I hate all deceitful actions. ⁴ 

Galatians 3:10-13

3:10 For all who ⁵  rely on doing the works of the law are under a curse, because it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not keep on doing everything written in the book of the law.” ⁶  3:11 Now it is clear no one is justified before God by the law, because the righteous one will live by faith. ⁷  3:12 But the law is not based on faith, ⁸  but the one who does the works of the law ⁹  will live by them. ¹⁰  3:13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming ¹¹  a curse for us (because it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”) ¹² 

James 2:10-11

2:10 For the one who obeys the whole law but fails ¹³  in one point has become guilty of all of it. ¹⁴  2:11 For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” ¹⁵  also said, “Do not murder.” ¹⁶  Now if you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a violator of the law.

[119:6]  ¹ tn Or “when.”

[119:6]  ² tn Heb “I gaze at.”

[119:128]  ³ tn Heb “for this reason all the precepts of everything I regard as right.” The phrase “precepts of everything” is odd. It is preferable to take the kaf (כ) on כֹּל (kol, “everything) with the preceding form as a pronominal suffix, “your precepts,” and the lamed (ל) with the following verb as an emphatic particle. See L. C. Allen, Psalms 101-150 (WBC), 138.

[119:128]  ⁴ tn Heb “every false path.”

[3:10]  ⁵ tn Grk “For as many as.”

[3:10]  ⁶ tn Grk “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all the things written in the book of the law, to do them.”

[3:11]  ⁷ tn Or “The one who is righteous by faith will live” (a quotation from Hab 2:4).

[3:12]  ⁸ tn Grk “is not from faith.”

[3:12]  ⁹ tn Grk “who does these things”; the referent (the works of the law, see 3:5) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[3:12]  ¹⁰ sn A quotation from Lev 18:5. The phrase the works of the law is an editorial expansion on the Greek text (see previous note); it has been left as normal typeface to indicate it is not part of the OT text.

[3:13]  ¹¹ tn Grk “having become”; the participle γενόμενος (genomenos) has been taken instrumentally.

[3:13]  ¹² sn A quotation from Deut 21:23. By figurative extension the Greek word translated tree (ζύλον, zulon) can also be used to refer to a cross (L&N 6.28), the Roman instrument of execution.

[2:10]  ¹³ tn Or “stumbles.”

[2:10]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “guilty of all.”

[2:11]  ¹⁵ sn A quotation from Exod 20:14 and Deut 5:18.

[2:11]  ¹⁶ sn A quotation from Exod 20:13 and Deut 5:17.
