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.
