NAS

NIV

8 However at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those which by nature are no gods.
8 Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.
9 But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you turn back again to the weak and worthless elemental things, to which you desire to be enslaved all over again?
9 But now that you know God—or rather are known by God—how is it that you are turning back to those weak and miserable forces ? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again?
