Verse Comparison: Galatians 2:21
American Standard Version
I do not make void the grace of God: for if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nought.
Amplified® Bible
[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.]
Darby English Version
I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness [is] by law, then Christ has died for nothing.

I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.
King James Version
I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
Young's Literal Translation
I do not make void the grace of God, for if righteousness `be' through law -- then Christ died in vain.
