Galatians 3:16-18
English Standard Version
16 Now (A)the promises were made (B)to Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, (C)“And to your offspring,” who is Christ. 17 This is what I mean: the law, which came (D)430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as (E)to make the promise void. 18 For if the inheritance comes by the law, it no longer comes by promise; but (F)God gave it to Abraham by a promise.

Galatians 3:16-18
New International Version
16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed.(A) Scripture does not say “and to seeds,” meaning many people, but “and to your seed,”[a](B) meaning one person, who is Christ. 17 What I mean is this: The law, introduced 430 years(C) later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus do away with the promise. 18 For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on the promise;(D) but God in his grace gave it to Abraham through a promise.
