Galatians 3:19-22 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

19. What is the use of the Law? It was given later to show that we sin. But it was only supposed to last until the coming of that descendant who was given the promise. In fact, angels gave the Law to Moses, and he gave it to the people.

20. There is only one God, and the Law did not come directly from him.

21. Does the Law disagree with God's promises? No, it doesn't! If any law could give life to us, we could become acceptable to God by obeying that law.

22. But the Scriptures say that sin controls everyone, so that God's promises will be for anyone who has faith in Jesus Christ.
