Galatians 2:17-21
New American Standard Bible
17 But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have also been found (A)sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? [a](B)Far from it! 18 For if I rebuild what I have once destroyed, I (C)prove myself to be a wrongdoer. 19 For through [b]the Law I (D)died to [c]the Law, so that I might live for God. 20 I have been (E)crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but (F)Christ lives in me; and [d]the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in (G)the Son of God, who (H)loved me and (I)gave Himself up for me. 21 I do not nullify the grace of God, for (J)if righteousness comes through [e]the Law, then Christ died needlessly.”
