Galatians 3:21-24
New American Standard Bible
21 Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? [a](A)Far from it! For (B)if a law had been given that was able to impart life, then righteousness [b]would indeed have been [c]based on law. 22 But the Scripture has (C)confined [d]everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
23 But before faith came, [e]we were kept in custody under the Law, (D)being confined for the faith that was destined to be revealed. 24 Therefore the Law has become our [f](E)guardian to lead us to Christ, so that (F)we may be justified by faith.
