Galatians 4:6-10
6BecauseG3754 you are sonsG5207, 1GodG2316 has sentG1821 forthG1821 the SpiritG4151 of His SonG5207 into our heartsG2588, cryingG2896, “2AbbaG5! FatherG3962!” 7ThereforeG5620 you are noG3765 longerG3765 a slaveG1401, but a sonG5207; and 3ifG1487 a sonG5207, thenG2532 an heirG2818 4throughG1223 GodG2316.
8HoweverG235 at that timeG5119, 5when you did not knowG3609 GodG2316, you were 6slavesG1398 to 7thoseG3588 which by natureG5449 are noG3361 godsG2316. 9But nowG3568 that you have come to knowG1097 GodG2316, orG1161 ratherG3123 to be 8knownG1097 by GodG2316, 9howG4459 is it that you turnG1994 backG1994 againG3825 to the weakG772 and worthlessG4434 1011elementalG4747 thingsG4747, to whichG3739 you desireG2309 to be enslavedG1398 allG509 overG509 againG3825? 10You 12observeG3906 daysG2250 and monthsG3376 and seasonsG2540 and yearsG1763.
