Galatians 4:4-7

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴ But when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, ⁵ in order to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as children. ⁶ And because you are children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our^[a] hearts, crying, “Abba!^[b] Father!” ⁷ So you are no longer a slave but a child, and if a child then also an heir, through God.^[c]
