Galatians 3:21-24
English Standard Version
21 Is the law then contrary to the promises of God? Certainly not! For (A)if a law had been given that could give life, then righteousness would indeed be by the law. 22 But the Scripture (B)imprisoned everything under sin, so that (C)the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given (D)to those who believe.
23 Now before faith came, we were held captive under the law, (E)imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed. 24 So then, (F)the law was our (G)guardian until Christ came, (H)in order that we might be justified by faith.

Absolutely not!(A) For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law.(B) 22 But Scripture has locked up everything under the control of sin,(C) so that what was promised, being given through faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who believe.
Children of God
23 Before the coming of this faith,[a] we were held in custody(D) under the law, locked up until the faith that was to come would be revealed.(E) 24 So the law was our guardian until Christ came(F) that we might be justified by faith.(G)
