Galatians 4:5-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 4
5
so that He might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons
and daughters
.
6
Because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, 'Abba! Father!'
7
Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God.
8
However at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those which by nature are not gods.
9
But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles, to which you want to be enslaved all over again?
King James Version
Chapter 4
5
To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6
And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
7
Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
8
Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
9
But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 4
5
to redeem those under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.
6
And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying,
"Abba
, Father!"
7
So you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then God has made you an heir.
8
But in the past, since you didn’t know God, you were enslaved to things that by nature are not gods.
9
But now, since you know God, or rather have become known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elements? Do you want to be enslaved to them all over again?
New Living Translation
Chapter 4
5
God sent him to buy freedom for us who were slaves to the law, so that he could adopt us as his very own children.
6
And because we are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, 'Abba, Father.'
7
Now you are no longer a slave but God’s own child. And since you are his child, God has made you his heir.
8
Before you Gentiles knew God, you were slaves to so-called gods that do not even exist.
9
So now that you know God (or should I say, now that God knows you), why do you want to go back again and become slaves once more to the weak and useless spiritual principles of this world?
English Standard Version
Chapter 4
5
to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.
6
And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!"
7
So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.
8
Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to those that by nature are not gods.
9
But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more?
New International Version
Chapter 4
5
to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.
6
Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, "
Abba,
Father."
7
So you are no longer a slave, but God’s child; and since you are his child, God has made you also an heir.
8
Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.
9
But now that you know God—or rather are known by God—how is it that you are turning back to those weak and miserable forces ? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again?
New King James Version
Chapter 4
5
to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.
6
And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!”
7
Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
8
But then, indeed, when you did not know God, you served those which by nature are not gods.
9
But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how
is it that
you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?
