Howbeit at that time, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to them that by nature are no gods:

But at one time, you Gentiles, having no knowledge of God, were slaves to gods which in reality do not exist.

However at that time, not knowing God, you were in bondage to those who by nature are no gods.

Galatians 4:9

but now that ye have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how turn ye back again to the weak and beggarly rudiments, whereunto ye desire to be in bondage over again?

Now, however, having come to know God or rather to be known by Him how is it you are again turning back to weak and worthless rudimentary notions to which you are once more willing to be enslaved?
