Galatians 4:1-5 To proceed, as long as the heir is a child he is no different from a slave, though he is owner of all,

WPNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ To proceed, as long as the heir is a child he is no different from a slave, though he is owner of all, ² but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father. ³ Similarly, when we were children we were in slavery under the basic principles of the world. ⁴ But at just the right time God sent out His Son, born of a woman, born under law, ⁵ so that He might redeem those under law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.
