Galatians 3:29–4:1

29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

1 What I am saying is that as long as an heir is underage, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate.

29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;

29 And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and God’s promise to Abraham belongs to you.

1 Think of it this way. If a father dies and leaves an inheritance for his young children, those children are not much better off than slaves until they grow up, even though they actually own everything their father had.

29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

1 Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all,

29 You belong to Christ, so you are Abraham’s descendants. You will inherit all of God’s blessings because of the promise God made to Abraham.

1 I want to tell you this: While those who will inherit their fathers’ property are still children, they are no different from slaves. It does not matter that the children own everything.

29 And if ye are Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, heirs according to promise.

1 But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a bondservant though he is lord of all;

29 but if ye are of Christ, then ye are Abraham’s seed, heirs according to promise.

1 Now I say, As long as the heir is a child, he differs nothing from a bondman, though he be lord of all;

29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendants and heirs, as God promised. 

1 Let me explain further. As long as an heir is a child, he is no better off than a slave, even though he owns everything.

29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, heirs according to the promise. 1 Now I say that as long as the heir is a child, he differs in no way from a slave, though he is the owner of everything.

29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to the promise.

1 My point is this: heirs, as long as they are minors, are no better than those who are enslaved, though they are the owners of all the property,

29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are descendants of Abraham, heirs according to the promise.

1 Now I say, for as long a time as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he is master of everything,

29 You who belong to Christ are Abraham’s seed. You will receive what God has promised.

1 Here is what I have been saying. As long as your own children are young, they are no different from slaves in your house. They are no different, even though they own all of the property.

29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendants, heirs according to promise.

1 Now I say, as long as the heir is a child, he does not differ at all from a slave although he is owner of everything,
