New International Version

Galatians 4:2-5 New International Version (NIV)

2. The heir is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father.

3. So also, when we were underage, we were in slavery under the elemental spiritual forces of the world.

4. But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

5. to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.
