3:9 Paul here summarizes the contrast between his understanding of salvation and that of his opponents (3:2).
• Believers become one with Christ by trusting him for salvation and sharing his life (cp. John 15:1-5).
• We become righteous, not by observing the law of Moses, but through faith in Christ. This is God’s way of making us right with himself: Salvation cannot be earned, but only received as a free gift (see Rom 1:17; 3:21-26; 4:5-8; Gal 2:16; Eph 2:8-9).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
καὶ εὑρεθῶ ἐν αὐτῷ
and /may_be/_found in him

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
μὴ ἔχων ἐμὴν δικαιοσύνην, τὴν ἐκ νόμου
not having my_‹own› righteousness ¬which of /the/_law

ἀλλὰ τὴν διὰ πίστεως Χριστοῦ
but the_‹righteousness› through faith ˱in˲_Christ

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἀλλὰ τὴν διὰ πίστεως Χριστοῦ
but the_‹righteousness› through faith ˱in˲_Christ
Here, the word that refers to “righteousness.” Paul assumes his readers will know this from the context. If this would be unclear in your language, consider stating this explicitly. Alternate translation: [but the righteousness which is through faith in Christ] or [but the righteousness which comes by faith in Christ]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
τὴν ἐκ Θεοῦ δικαιοσύνην ἐπὶ τῇ πίστε

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faith, you can express the idea behind faith by using a verbal form. See how you translated faith earlier in this verse. Alternate translation: [but the righteousness from God, which comes by believing in Christ]
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
ἐπὶ τῇ πίστει
on ¬the faith
In the phrase by faith, Paul is leaving out some words that would be needed to complete the sentence in many languages. If it would be helpful in your language, you could supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: [which comes by faith] or [which is received through faith]
