Galatians 3:21-24 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 have been by the law.

21 G3551 Is the law G3767 then G2596 against G1860 the promises G2316 of God G3361 ? God forbid G1096 [G5636] G1063 : for G1487 if G1325 there had been G3551 a law G1325 given [G5681] G3588 which G1410 could [G5740] G2227 have given life [G5658] G3689 , verily G1343 righteousness G302 should G2258 have been [G5713] G1537 by G3551 the law.

22 G235 But G1124 the scripture G4788 hath concluded [G5656] G3956 all G5259 under G266 sin G2443 , that G1860 the promise G1537 by G4102 faith G2424 of Jesus G5547 Christ G1325 might be given [G5686] G4100 to them that believe [G5723] .

23 G1161 But G4253 before G4102 faith G2064 came [G5629] G5432 , we were kept [G5712] G5259 under G3551 the law G4788 , shut up [G5772] G1519 unto G4102 the faith G3195 which should afterwards [G5723] G601 be revealed [G5683] .

24 G5620 Wherefore G3551 the law G1096 was [G5754] G2257 our G3807 schoolmaster G1519 to bring us unto G5547 Christ G2443 , that G1344 we might be justified [G5686] G1537 by G4102 faith.

KJV⁽ⁱ⁾ 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 have been by the law. ²² But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. ²³ But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. ²⁴ Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
