Galatians - Chapter: 4


4:1	And I say that the heyre as longe as he is a chylde, differeth not from a seruaunt thoughe he be Lorde of all,
4:2	but is vnder tutours and gouernours, vntyll the tyme appoynted of the father.
4:3	Euen so we as longe as we were chyldren, were in bondage vnder the ordinaunces of the world.
4:4	But when the tyme was full come, God sente hys sonne made of a woman, and made bonde vnto the lawe,
4:5	to redeme them which were vnder the lawe: that we thorowe eleccyon myght receyue the enheritaunce that belongeth vnto the naturall sonnes.
4:6	Because ye are sonnes, God hath sent the spyryte of hys sonne into our hertes, whiche cryeth Abba father.
4:7	Wherfore now thou art not a seruaunt but a sonne. Yf thou be the sonne, thou arte also the heyre of God thorowe Christe.
4:8	Notwithstandynge when ye knewe not God ye dyd seruyce vnto them, which by nature were no Goddes.
4:9	But nowe seynge, ye knowe God (yea rather are knowen of God) how is it that ye turne agayne to the weake & beggerly ceremonies, wherevnto agayne ye desyre a freshe to be in bondage?
4:10	Ye obserue dayes, and monethes, and tymes, and yeares.
4:11	I am in feare of you lest I haue bestowed on you laboure in vayne.
4:12	Brethren I beseche you, be ye as I am, for I am as ye are. Ye haue not hurte me at all.
4:13	Ye knowe howe thorowe infyrmytye of the fleshe, I preached the Gospell vnto you at the fyrste.
4:14	And my temptacion whiche I suffered by reason of my flesh, ye dispysed not, neyther abhorred, but receyued me as an Angell of God: yea as Christe Iesu.
4:15	How happye were ye then? for I beare you recorde that yf it had bene possyble, ye woulde haue plucked oute youre owne eyes, and haue geuen them to me.
4:16	Am I therfore become your enemye, because I tell you the truth?
4:17	They are gelous ouer you amysse. Yea, they intende to exclude you, that ye should be feruent to them ward.
4:18	It is good alwayes to be feruent, so it be in a good thinge, and not onelye when I am presente with you.
4:19	My lytle chyldren (of whome I trauayle in byrth agayne vntyll Christe be fashyoned in you)
4:20	I woulde I were with you now, and coulde chaunge my voyce, for I stande in a doubte of you.
4:21	Tell me ye that desyre to be vnder the law haue ye not heard of the law?
4:22	For it is writen, that Abraham had two sonnes, the one by a bonde mayd the other by a fre woman.
4:23	Yea and he whiche was of the bond woman, was borne after the fleshe: but he whiche was of the fre woman, was borne by promes.
4:24	Whiche thynges betoken misterye. For these women are two testamentes the one from the mounte Syna, whiche gendreth to bondage whiche is Agar.
4:25	For mounte Syna is called Agar in Arabia, and bordreth vpon the citie, which is nowe Hierusalem, and is in bondage with her chyldren.
4:26	But Hierusalem, whiche is aboue, is fre, whiche is the mother of vs all.
4:27	For it is written: Reioyce thou baren, that bearest no chyldren: breake forth and crye, thou that trauaylest not. For the desolate hath many more children then she whiche hath an husband.
4:28	Brethren we are after the maner of Isaac children of promes.
4:29	But as then he that was borne carnally, persecuted him that was borne spirytuallye. Euen so is it nowe.
4:30	Neuerthelesse what sayth the scripture: put awaye the bond woman and her sonne. For the sonne of the bond woman shall not be heyre with the sonne of the fre woman.
4:31	So then brethren we are not chyldren of the bonde woman, but of the fre woman.


4:1	Then I say, that the heire as long as hee is a childe, differeth nothing from a seruant, though he be Lord of all,
4:2	But is vnder tutours and gouernours, vntil the time appointed of the Father.
4:3	Euen so, we when wee were children, were in bondage vnder the rudiments of the world.
4:4	But when the fulnesse of time was come, God sent forth his Sonne made of a woman, and made vnder the Lawe,
4:5	That hee might redeeme them which were vnder the Law, that we might receiue the adoption of the sonnes.
4:6	And because ye are sonnes, God hath sent foorth the Spirit of his Sonne into your heartes, which crieth, Abba, Father.
4:7	Wherefore, thou art no more a seruant, but a sonne: now if thou be a sone, thou art also the heire of God through Christ.
4:8	But euen then, when ye knewe not God, yee did seruice vnto them, which by nature are not gods:
4:9	But now seeing ye knowe God, yea, rather are knowen of God, howe turne ye againe vnto impotent and beggerly rudiments, whereunto as from the beginning ye wil be in bondage againe?
4:10	Ye obserue dayes, and moneths, and times and yeeres.
4:11	I am in feare of you, lest I haue bestowed on you labour in vaine.
4:12	Be ye as I (for I am euen as you) brethren, I beseech you: ye haue not hurt me at all.
4:13	And ye know, how through infirmitie of the flesh, I preached ye Gospel vnto you at the first.
4:14	And the trial of me which was in my flesh, ye despised not, neither abhorred: but ye receiued me as an Angel of God, yea, as Christ Iesus.
4:15	What was then your felicitie? for I beare you recorde, that if it had bene possible, ye would haue plucked out your owne eyes, and haue giuen them vnto me.
4:16	Am I therefore become your enemie, because I tell you the trueth?
4:17	They are ielous ouer you amisse: yea, they woulde exclude you, that ye shoulde altogether loue them.
4:18	But it is a good thing to loue earnestly alwayes in a good thing, and not onely when I am present with you,
4:19	My litle children, of whome I trauaile in birth againe, vntill Christ be formed in you.
4:20	And I would I were with you nowe, that I might change my voyce: for I am in doubt of you.
4:21	Tell me, ye that will be vnder the Law, doe ye not heare the Lawe?
4:22	For it is written, that Abraham had two sonnes, one by a seruant, and one by a free woman.
4:23	But he which was of the seruant, was borne after the flesh: and he which was of the free woman, was borne by promise.
4:24	By the which things another thing is meant: for these mothers are the two testaments, the one which is Agar of mount Sina, which gendreth vnto bondage.
4:25	(For Agar or Sina is a mountaine in Arabia, and it answereth to Hierusalem which nowe is) and she is in bondage with her children.
4:26	But Hierusalem, which is aboue, is free: which is the mother of vs all.
4:27	For it is written, Reioyce thou barren that bearest no children: breake forth, and cry, thou that trauailest not: for the desolate hath many moe children, then she which hath an husband.
4:28	Therefore, brethren, wee are after the maner of Isaac, children of the promise.
4:29	But as then hee that was borne after the flesh, persecuted him that was borne after the Spirit, euen so it is nowe.
4:30	But what sayth the Scripture? Put out the seruant and her sonne: for the sonne of the seruant shall not be heire with the sonne of the free woman.
4:31	Then brethren, we are not children of the seruant, but of the free woman.


4:1	Now I say, that the heire, as long as hee is a child, differeth nothing from a seruant, though hee bee Lord of all,
4:2	But is vnder tutors and gouernours vntill the time appointed of the father.
4:3	Euen so we, when wee were children, were in bondage vnder the Elements of the world:
4:4	But when the fulnes of the time was come, God sent foorth his Sonne made of a woman, made vnder the Law,
4:5	To redeeme them that were vnder the Law, that we might receiue the adoption of sonnes.
4:6	And because yee are sonnes, God hath sent foorth the spirit of his Sonne into your hearts, crying Abba, Father.
4:7	Wherefore thou art no more a seruant, but a sonne; and if a sonne, then an heire of God through Christ.
4:8	Howbeit, then when ye knew not God, yee did seruice vnto them which by nature are no Gods.
4:9	But now after that yee haue knowen God, or rather are knowen of God, how turne ye againe to the weak and beggerly Elements, whereunto ye desire againe to be in bondage?
4:10	Yee obserue dayes, and moneths, and times, and yeeres.
4:11	I am afraide of you, lest I haue bestowed vpon you labour in vaine.
4:12	Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are, ye haue not iniured me at all.
4:13	Ye know how through infirmitie of the flesh, I preached the Gospel vnto you at the first.
4:14	And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor reiected, but receiued mee as an Angel of God, euen as Christ Iesus.
4:15	Where is then the blessednes you spake of? for I beare you record, that if it had bin possible, ye would haue plucked out your own eyes, and haue giuen them to me.
4:16	Am I therefore become your enemie, because I tell you the trueth?
4:17	They zelously affect you, but not well: yea, they would exclude you, that you might affect them.
4:18	But it is good to bee zealously affected alwayes in a good thing, and not onely when I am present with you.
4:19	My litle children, of whom I trauaile in birth againe, vntill Christ bee formed in you:
4:20	I desire to bee present with you now, and to change my voyce, for I stand in doubt of you.
4:21	Tell me, ye that desire to be vnder the Law, doe ye not heare the Law?
4:22	For it is written, that Abraham had two sonnes, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
4:23	But he who was of the bondwoman, was borne after the flesh: but hee of the freewoman, was by promise.
4:24	Which things are an Allegorie; for these are the two Couenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
4:25	For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Ierusalem, which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
4:26	But Ierusalem which is aboue is free, which is the mother of vs all.
4:27	For it is written, Reioyce thou barren that bearest not, breake foorth and cry thou that traueilest not; for the desolate hath many moe children then she which hath an husband.
4:28	Now wee, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
4:29	But as then hee that was borne after the flesh, persecuted him that was borne after the Spirit, euen so it is now.
4:30	Neuerthelesse, what saith the Scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her sonne: for the son of the bondwoman shall not bee heire with the son of the freewoman.
4:31	So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.
