but knowing that a man is not justified on the principle of works of law nora but by the faith of Jesus Christ, *we* also have believed on Christ Jesus, that we might be justified on the principle of the faith of Christ; and not of works of law; because on the principle of works of law no flesh shall be justified.

The Greek has the sense of "but," with an exclusive force, which I have endeavoured to render by "nor" in brackets. see Rom. 7.7; 14.14; 1 Cor. 7.17; Gal. 1.7. We may translate perhaps, "but only."

knowing that no man is justified by works of law, but by faith of Jesus Christ, even we believed on Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith of Christ and not by works of law; because by works of law shall no flesh be justified.
