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

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，

那本来使人活的诫命，反而使我死了；

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 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.

and I died. So I found that the very commandment that was intended to bring life brought death!

The commandment which was for life, this I found to be for death;

For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law,“ The man who does those things shall live by them.”

You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, which if a man does, he shall live by them: I am the Lord.

“ Notwithstanding, the children rebelled against Me; they did not walk in My statutes, and were not careful to observe My judgments,‘ which, if a man does, he shall live by them’; but they profaned My Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out My fury on them and fulfill My anger against them in the wilderness.

And I gave them My statutes and showed them My judgments,‘ which, if a man does, he shall live by them.’

So he answered and said,“‘ You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and‘ your neighbor as yourself.’”And He said to him,“ You have answered rightly; do this and you will live.”But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus,“ And who is my neighbor?”

But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away,

Yet the law is not of faith, but“ the man who does them shall live by them.”

Yet the house of Israel rebelled against Me in the wilderness; they did not walk in My statutes; they despised My judgments,‘ which, if a man does, he shall live by them’; and they greatly defiled My Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out My fury on them in the wilderness, to consume them.
