Galatians 3:22-24
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
22 But the Scripture confined all things under[a] sin, in order that the promise by faith[b] in Jesus Christ might be given to the ones believing. 23 And before the faith[c] came, we were being kept-in-custody[d] under the Law— being confined until[e] the faith destined to be revealed. 24 So then the Law has been[f] our tutor[g] leading-to[h] Christ, in order that we might be declared-righteous by faith.
