Galatians 3:20

← Galatians 3:19	Galatians 3:20 (KJV)	Galatians 3:21 →
Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.	Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.	Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
