NASB
"But the Scripture has shut up everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe."
— Galatians 3:22, NASB
“But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.”
“But the scripture shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. ”
“But the Scriptures imprisoned all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.”
“But the scripture imprisoned everything under sin so that the promise could be given– because of the faithfulness of Jesus Christ– to those who believe.”
“But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise, by the faith of Jesus Christ, might be given to them that believe.”
“However, the holy Writings have put all things under sin, so that that for which God gave the undertaking, based on faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who have such faith.”
“But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.”
Why the Law then? It was added because of transgressions, having been ordained through angels by the agency of a mediator, until the seed would come to whom the promise had been made.
Now a mediator is not for one party only; whereas God is only one.
Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? May it never be! For if a law had been given which was able to impart life, then righteousness would indeed have been based on law.
But the Scripture has shut up everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed.
Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith.
But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
