11 ^pI gave them my statutes and made known to them my rules, ^qby which, if a person does them, he shall live.

13 ^tBut the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness. ^uThey did not walk in my statutes but rejected my rules, by which, if a person does them, he shall live; ^vand my Sabbaths they greatly profaned.

^t“Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them in the wilderness, to make a full end of them.

21 ^kBut the children ^lrebelled against me. ^mThey did not walk in my statutes and were not careful to obey my rules, by which, if a person does them, he shall live; they profaned my Sabbaths.

ⁿ“Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them and spend my anger against them in the wilderness.

The Message of Salvation to All

12 But the law is not of faith, rather ^r“The one who does them shall live by them.”

28 And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; ^udo this, and you will live.”
