Galatians 3:19-29 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

19. Why then was the law? It was set because of transgressions, until the seed should come, to whom he made the promise, being ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

20. Now a mediator is not of one: but God is one.

21. Was the law then against the promises of God? God forbid. For if there had been a law given which could give life, verily justice should have been by the law.

22. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise, by the faith of Jesus Christ, might be given to them that believe.

23. But before the faith came, we were kept under the law shut up, unto that faith which was to be revealed.

24. Wherefore the law was our pedagogue in Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

25. But after the faith is come, we are no longer under a pedagogue.

26. For you are all the children of God by faith, in Christ Jesus.

27. For as many of you as have been baptized in Christ, have put on Christ.

28. There is neither Jew nor Greek: there is neither bond nor free: there is neither male nor female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.

29. And if you be Christ's, then are you the seed of Abraham, heirs according to the promise.
