Galatians 3:19-22
191Why the Law then? It was added 2because of transgressions, having been 3ordained through angels 4by the 5agency of a mediator, until 6the seed would come to whom the promise had been made. 20Now 7a mediator is not 8for one party only; whereas God is only one. 21Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? 9May it never be! For 10if a law had been given which was able to impart life, then righteousness 11would indeed have been 12based on law. 22But the Scripture has 13shut up 14everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
