¹⁷ Now if we are children, then we are heirs^(A)—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings^(B) in order that we may also share in his glory.^(C)

²⁹ If you belong to Christ,^(A) then you are Abraham’s seed,^(B) and heirs^(C) according to the promise.^(D)

4 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.

⁷ So you are no longer a slave, but God’s child; and since you are his child, God has made you also an heir.^(A)

⁷ so that, having been justified by his grace,^(A) we might become heirs^(B) having the hope^(C) of eternal life.^(D)
