Galatians 3:20-22
Holman Christian Standard Bible
20 Now a mediator is not for just one person, but God is one.(A) 21 Is the law therefore contrary to God’s promises? Absolutely not! For if a law had been given that was able to give life, then righteousness would certainly be by the law. 22 But the Scripture has imprisoned everything under sin’s power,[a](B) so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ(C) might be given to those who believe.(D)

Galatians 3:20-22
New International Version
20 A mediator,(A) however, implies more than one party; but God is one.
21 Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not!(B) For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law.(C) 22 But Scripture has locked up everything under the control of sin,(D) so that what was promised, being given through faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who believe.
