Galatians 4:1-9
1NowG1161 I sayG3004, That the heirG3588G2818, as long asG3745 he isG1510 a childG3516, differethG1308 nothingG3762 fromG1308 a servantG1401, thoughG1401 he beG1510 lordG2962 of allG3956; 2ButG235 isG1510 underG5259 tutorsG2012 andG2532 governorsG3623 untilG891 the time appointedG3588G4287 of the fatherG3588G3962. 3EvenG2532 soG3779 weG1473, whenG3753 we wereG1510 childrenG3516, wereG1510 in bondageG1402 underG5259 the elementsG3588G4747 of the worldG3588G2889:
4ButG1161 whenG3753 the fulnessG3588G4138 of the timeG3588G5550 was comeG2064, GodG3588G2316 sent forthG1821 hisG846 SonG3588G5207, madeG1096 ofG1537 a womanG1135, madeG1096 underG5259 the lawG3551, 5To redeemG1805 themG3588 that wereG2443 underG5259 the lawG3551, thatG2443 we might receiveG618 the adoption of sonsG3588G5206. 6AndG1161 becauseG3754 ye areG1510 sonsG5207, GodG3588G2316 hath sent forthG1821 the SpiritG3588G4151 of hisG846 SonG3588G5207 intoG1519 yourG4771 heartsG3588G2588, cryingG2896, AbbaG5, FatherG3588G3962. 7WhereforeG5620 thou artG1510 no moreG3765 a servantG1401, butG235 a sonG5207; andG1161 ifG1487 a sonG5207, thenG2532 an heirG2818 of GodG2316 throughG1223 ChristG5547.
8HowbeitG235 thenG5119, when ye knew notG3756 GodG2316, ye did serviceG1398 unto them whichG3588 by natureG5449 areG1510 noG3361 godsG2316. 9ButG1161 nowG3568, after that ye have knownG1097 GodG2316, orG1161 ratherG3123 are knownG1097 ofG5259 GodG2316, howG4459 turn yeG1994 againG3825 toG1909 the weakG772 andG2532 beggarlyG4434 elementsG4747, whereuntoG3739 ye desireG2309 againG3825 to be in bondageG1398?
