Galatians 4:1


Galatians 3:29 Galatians 4:1 (KJV) Galatians 4:2
And if ye [be] Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Now I say, [That] the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
