Galatians 3:21-23

21st Century King James Version

²¹ Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should then have come by the law.

²² But the Scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

²³ But before faith came, we were kept under the law, being shut apart from the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
