ગુજરાતીગલાતીઓને પત્ર ૩:૨૩
પણ આ વિશ્વાસ આવ્યા અગાઉ, તે વિશ્વાસ પ્રગટ થાય ત્યાં સુધી આપણે નિયમશાસ્ત્ર દ્વારા કૈદ કરાયેલા અને બંધનમાં હતા.
हिन्दीगलातियों ३:२३
पर विश्वास के आने से पहले व्यवस्था की अधीनता में हम कैद थे, और उस विश्वास के आने तक जो प्रगट होनेवाला था, हम उसी के बन्धन में रहे।

In context

21Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could make alive, most certainly righteousness would have been of the law.

22But the Scripture imprisoned all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

23But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, confined for the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

24So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

25But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
