Galatians 4:22-28
22For it is writtenG1125 that AbrahamG11 hadG2192 twoG1417 sonsG5207, 1oneG1520 by the bondwomanG3814 and 2oneG1520 by the freeG1658 womanG1658. 23But 3the son by the bondwomanG3814 4was bornG1080 accordingG2596 to the fleshG4561, and 5the son by the freeG1658 womanG1658 throughG1223 the promiseG1860. 2467ThisG3748 is allegoricallyG238 speakingG238, for theseG3778 women are twoG1417 covenantsG1242: oneG1520 proceeding from 8MountG3735 SinaiG4614 bearingG1080 childrenG1080 9who are to be 10slavesG1397; 11she is HagarG28. 25NowG3568 thisG3588 HagarG28 is MountG3735 SinaiG4614 in ArabiaG688 and correspondsG4960 to the presentG3568 JerusalemG2419, for she is in slaveryG1398 with her childrenG5043. 26But 12the JerusalemG2419 aboveG507 is freeG1658; 13she is our motherG3384. 27For it is writtenG1125, “14RejoiceG2165, barrenG4723 womanG4723 who does not bearG5088; BreakG4486 forthG4486 and shoutG994, you who are not in laborG5605; For moreG4183 numerousG4183 are the childrenG5043 of the desolateG2048 ThanG2228 of the one who hasG2192 a husbandG435.” 28And you brethrenG80, 15likeG2596 IsaacG2464, are 16childrenG5043 of promiseG1860.
