Galatians 4:21-28

21TellG3004 me, ye who areG1510 desirous of beingG1510 under lawG3551, do ye not listenG191 to the lawG3551?

22For it is writtenG1125 that AbrahamG11 had twoG1417 sonsG5207; oneG1520 of the maid servant, and oneG1520 of the freeG1658 woman.

23But he [that was] of the maid servant was bornG1080 accordingG2596 to fleshG4561, and he [that was] of the freeG1658 woman through the promiseG1860.

24Which thingsG3778 have an allegorical sense; for these areG1510 twoG1417 covenantsG1242: oneG1520 from mountG3735 SinaiG4614, gendering to bondage, which isG1510 HagarG28.

25For Hagar isG1510 mountG3735 SinaiG4614 in ArabiaG688, and corresponds to JerusalemG2419 which [isG1510] nowG1161, for she isG1510 in bondage with her childrenG5043;

26but the JerusalemG2419 above isG1510 freeG1658, which isG1510 our motherG3384.

27For it is writtenG1125, RejoiceG2165, thou barrenG4723 that bearest not; break out and cryG994, thou that travailest not; because the childrenG5043 of the desolateG2048 are moreG3123 numerous than [those] of her that has a husbandG435.

28But ye, brethren, after the pattern of IsaacG2464, areG1510 childrenG5043 of promiseG1860.
