Galatians 3:19-22
New King James Version
Purpose of the Law

21 Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not!

Galatians 3:19-22
American Standard Version
19 What then is the law?

God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily righteousness would have been of the law. 22 But the scripture shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
