Galatians - Chapter: 4

>
4:1Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
4:2But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
4:3Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
4:4But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
4:5To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
4:6And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
4:7Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
4:8Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
4:9But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
4:10Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
4:11I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
4:12Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.
4:13Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.
4:14And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
4:15Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
4:16Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
4:17They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.
4:18But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
4:19My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
4:20I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you.
4:21Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?
4:22For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
4:23But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
4:24Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
4:25For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
4:26But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
4:27For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband.
4:28Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
4:29But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.
4:30Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.
4:31So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.

4:1And I saye that the heyre as longe as he is a chylde differth not from a servaunt though he be Lorde of all
4:2but is vnder tuters and governers vntill the tyme appoynted of the father.
4:3Even so we as longe as we were chyldren were in bondage vnder the ordinaunces of the worlde.
4:4But when the tyme was full come God sent his sonne borne of a woman and made bonde vnto ye lawe
4:5to redeme the which were vnder the lawe: yt we thorow eleccion myght receave the inheritauce yt belongeth vnto the naturall sonnes.
4:6Be cause ye are sonnes God hath sent the sprete of his sonne in to oure hertes which cryeth Abba father.
4:7Wherfore now thou art not a servaunt but a sonne. Yf thou be ye sonne thou arte also the heyre of God thorow Christ.
4:8Notwithstondinge whe ye knewe not God ye dyd service vnto them which by nature were no goddes.
4:9But now seinge ye knowe god (yee rather are knowe of God) how is it that ye tourne agayne vnto the weake and bedgarly cerimonies whervnto agayne ye desyre afresshe to be in bondage?
4:10Ye observe dayes and monethes and tymes and yeares.
4:11I am in feare of you lest I have bestowed on you laboure in vayne.
4:12Brethern I besech you be ye as I am: for I am as ye are. Ye have not hurte me at all.
4:13Ye knowe how thorow infirmite of the flesshe I preached the gospell vnto you at the fyrst.
4:14And my temptacion which I suffered by reason of my flesshe ye despysed not nether abhorred: but receaved me as an angell of god: ye as Christ Iesus.
4:15How happy were ye then? for I beare you recorde that yf it had bene possible ye wolde have plucked out youre awne eyes and have geven them to me.
4:16Am I therfore become youre enemie because I tell you the truth?
4:17They are gelous over you amysse. Ye they intede to exclude you that ye shuld be feruet to them warde.
4:18It is good alwayes to be fervent so it be in a good thinge and not only whe I am present with you.
4:19My littel children (of whom I travayle in birth againe vntill Christ be fassioned in you)
4:20I wolde I were with you now and coulde chaunge my voyce: for I stonde in a doute of you
4:21Tell me ye that desyre to be vnder the lawe have ye not hearde of the lawe?
4:22For it is written that Abraham had two sonnes ye one by a bonde mayde the other by a fre woman.
4:23Yee and he which was of the bonde woman was borne after the flesshe: but he which was of the fre woman was borne by promes.
4:24Which thinges betoken mystery. For these wemen are two testamentes the one fro the mounte Sina which gendreth vnto bondage which is Agar.
4:25For mounte Sina is called Agar in Arabia and bordreth vpo the citie which is now Ierusalem and is in bondage with her chyldren.
4:26But Ierusalem which is above is fre: which is the mother of vs all.
4:27For it is written: reioyce thou bare that bearest no chyldre: breake forthe and crye thou that travelest not. For the desolate hath many moo chyldren then she which hath an husband.
4:28Brethre we are after the maner of Isaac chyldren of promes.
4:29But as then he yt was borne carnally persecuted him that was borne spiritually. Even so is it now.
4:30Neverthelesse what sayth the scripture: put awaye the bonde woman and her sonne. For the sonne of the bonde woma shall not be heyre with the sonne of ye fre woman.
4:31So then brethren we are not chyldre of the bonde woman: but of the fre woman.
