The Book of Galatians, Chapter 2, Verse 19

18
For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
King James Version
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
American Standard Version
I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that [life] which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, [the faith] which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.
New English Translation
Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his descendant. Scripture does not say,“and to the descendants,” referring to many, but“and to your descendant,” referring to one, who is Christ.
World English Bible
For I, through the law, died to the law, that I might live to God.
20
I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness [come] by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
21
O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
1
This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
2
Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
3
Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if [it be] yet in vain.
4
He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, [doeth he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
5
Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
6
Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
7
And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, [saying], In thee shall all nations be blessed.
8
So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
