So thou art no longer bondman, but son; but if son, heir also through God.

Galatians 4:8

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

Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.

But then indeed, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to those who by nature are not gods;

Galatians 4:9

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?

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?

but now, knowing God, but rather being known by God, how do ye turn again to the weak and beggarly principles to which ye desire to be again anew in bondage?

and yet the bodily infirmity which was such a trial to you, you did not regard with contempt or loathing, but you received me as if I had been an angel of God or Christ Jesus Himself!

And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.

and my temptation, which [was] in my flesh, ye did not slight nor reject with contempt; but ye received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.

But [it is] right to be zealous at all times in what is right, and not only when I am present with you

But as then he that was born according to flesh persecuted him [that was born] according to Spirit, so also [it is] now.

Galatians 4:30

But what says the Scripture? "Send away the slave-girl and her son, for never shall the slave-girl's son share the inheritance with the son of the free woman."

Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.

But what says the scripture? Cast out the maid servant and her son; for the son of the maid servant shall not inherit with the son of the free woman.

Therefore, brethren, since we are not the children of a slave-girl, but of the free woman

So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.

So then, brethren, we are not maid servant's children, but [children] of the free woman.
