Galatians 3:19-28

19WhyG5101 thenG3767 was theG3588 lawG3551 given? It was addedG4369 because ofG5484 transgressionsG3847, untilG891 the arrivalG2064 of theG3588 seedG4690 to whomG3739 the promise referredG1861. It was administeredG1299 throughG1223 angelsG32 byG1722 a mediatorG5495G3316. 20A mediatorG3316 isG1510 unnecessaryG3756, howeverG1161, for only oneG1520 party; butG1161 GodG2316 isG1510 oneG1520.

21Is theG3588 lawG3551, thenG3767, opposed toG2596 theG3588 promisesG1860 of GodG2316? Certainly notG3361G1096! ForG1063 ifG1487 a lawG3551 had been givenG1325 thatG3588 couldG1410 impart lifeG2227, thenG302 righteousnessG1343 would certainlyG3689 have comeG1510 fromG1537 the lawG3551. 22ButG235 theG3588 ScriptureG1124 pronounces allG3956 thingsG3588 confinedG4788 byG5259 sinG266, so thatG2443 byG1537 faithG4102 in JesusG2424 ChristG5547 theG3588 promiseG1860 might be givenG1325 to those whoG3588 believeG4100.

23

BeforeG4253 this faithG4102 cameG2064, we were held in custodyG5432 underG5259 the lawG3551, locked upG4788 untilG1519 faithG4102 should beG3195 revealedG601. 24SoG5620 theG3588 lawG3551 becameG1096 ourG1473 guardianG3807 to lead usG1519 to ChristG5547, thatG2443 we might be justifiedG1344 byG1537 faithG4102. 25NowG1161 that faithG4102 has comeG2064, we areG1510 no longerG3765 underG5259 a guardianG3807.

26

You areG1510 allG3956 sonsG5207 of GodG2316 throughG1223 faithG4102 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 27ForG1063 all ofG3745 you who were baptizedG907 intoG1519 ChristG5547 have clothed yourselves withG1746 ChristG5547. 28There isG1762 neitherG3756 JewG2453 norG3761 GreekG1672, slaveG1401 norG3761 freeG1658, maleG730 nor femaleG2338, forG1063 youG4771 areG1510 allG3956 oneG1520 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
