OET (OET-RV) So what I’m telling you is that the agreement with Abraham that was previously ratified by God, was not annulled 430 years later when the law was given to Moses and nor was the promised nullified.
OET-LV And I_am_saying this:
the_covenant having_been_previously_ratified by the god, the after four_hundred and thirty years having_become law is_ not _annulling, as_in_order that to_nullify the promise.
SR-GNT Τοῦτο δὲ λέγω: διαθήκην προκεκυρωμένην ὑπὸ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, ὁ μετὰ τετρακόσια καὶ τριάκοντα ἔτη γεγονὼς νόμος οὐκ ἀκυροῖ, εἰς τὸ καταργῆσαι τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν. ‡
(Touto de legō: diathaʸkaʸn prokekurōmenaʸn hupo tou ˚Theou, ho meta tetrakosia kai triakonta etaʸ gegonōs nomos ouk akuroi, eis to katargaʸsai taʸn epangelian.)

3.17 Hoc autem dico. Hoc promisit Deus Abrahæ, hoc autem testamentum confirmatum per juramenta dico et affirmo, quod lex non facit irritum, de qua non esset hoc putandum: quia data est tantum ad tempus: quia post multum tempus a promissione facta Abrahæ, lex data est: de qua si esset benedictio, homines illius temporis Abraham, Isaac et Jacob non eam habuissent. Lex non facit irritum. Id est, falsum: quod faceret, si per eam daretur benedictio. Promissio enim illa non dixit, quod per legem, sed per semen. Quod si per legem benedictio, ergo frustra semini promisit, et frustra semen ipsum venit. Lex non facit irritum quasi jam valeret ad evacuandam promissionem: quia esset falsa, et Deus mendax.

That when/but_if per legem benedictio, ergo frustra semini promisit, and frustra seed ipsum venit. Lex not/no facit irritum as_if yam valeret to evacuandam promissionem: because was falsa, and God mendax.
