Galatians 2:21 - King James Bible with Strong NumbersG114 I do G3756 not G114 frustrate [G5719] G5485 the grace G2316 of God G1063 : for G1487 if G1343 righteousness G1223 come by G3551 the law G686 , then G5547 Christ G599 is dead [G5627] G1432 in vain. See the chapterMore versionsKing James Version (Oxford) 1769I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. See the chapterAmplified Bible - Classic Edition[Therefore, I do not treat God's gracious gift as something of minor importance and defeat its very purpose]; I do not set aside and invalidate and frustrate and nullify the grace (unmerited favor) of God. For if justification (righteousness, acquittal from guilt) comes through [observing the ritual of] the Law, then Christ (the Messiah) died groundlessly and to no purpose and in vain. [His death was then wholly superfluous.] See the chapterAmerican Standard Version (1901)I do not make void the grace of God: for if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nought. See the chapterCommon English BibleI don’t ignore the grace of God, because if we become righteous through the Law, then Christ died for no purpose. See the chapterCatholic Public Domain VersionI do not reject the grace of God. For if justice is through the law, then Christ died in vain. See the chapter |
