Galatians 3:22 in Context — Galatians 3

20 Y el mediador no es de uno, pero Dios es uno.

21 ¿Luego la ley es contra las promesas de Dios? En ninguna manera: porque si la ley dada pudiera vivificar, la justicia fuera verdaderamente por la ley.

22 Mas encerró la Escritura todo bajo pecado, para que la promesa fuese dada á los creyentes por la fe de Jesucristo.

23 Empero antes que viniese la fe, estábamos guardados bajo la ley, encerrados para aquella fe que había de ser descubierta.

24 De manera que la ley nuestro ayo fué para [llevarnos] á Cristo, para que fuésemos justificados por la fe.
