Galatians 4:16-23
16SoG5620 have I becomeG1096 your enemyG2190 1by 2tellingG226 you the truthG226? 17They eagerlyG2206 seekG2206 you, not commendablyG2573, but they wishG2309 to shutG1576 you out soG2443 that you will seekG2206 them. 18But it is goodG2570 alwaysG3842 to be eagerlyG2206 soughtG2206 in a commendableG2570 3mannerG2570, and 4not onlyG3440 whenG1722 I amG3918 presentG3918 with you. 195My childrenG5043, with whomG3739 6I amG5605 againG3825 in laborG5605 untilG3360 7ChristG5547 is formedG3445 in you-- 20but I could wishG2309 to be presentG3918 with you nowG737 and to changeG236 my toneG5456, for 8I amG639 perplexedG639 aboutG1722 you.
21TellG3004 me, you who wantG2309 to be underG5259 lawG3551, do you not 9listenG191 to the lawG3551? 22For it is writtenG1125 that AbrahamG11 hadG2192 twoG1417 sonsG5207, 10oneG1520 by the bondwomanG3814 and 11oneG1520 by the freeG1658 womanG1658. 23But 12the son by the bondwomanG3814 13was bornG1080 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, and 14the son by the freeG1658 womanG1658 throughG1223 the promiseG1860.
