For as many as are under the deeds of the law, are under malediction. For it is written, "Cursed is every man that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to fulfil them."

But the scripture concluded all things under sin, that the promise by the faith of Jesus Christ should be given unto them that believe.

Before that faith came, we were kept and shut up under the law, unto the faith which should afterward be declared.

But after that faith is come, now are we no longer under a schoolmaster.

but is under tutors and governors, until the time appointed of the father.

Even so we, as long as we were children, were in bondage under the ordinances of the world:

to redeem them which were under the law: that we through election might receive the inheritance that belongeth unto the natural sons.

Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law: have ye not heard of the law?

But and if ye be led of the spirit, then are ye not under the law.
