Galatians 4:8-15

8HowbeitG235 thenG5119, when ye knew notG3756 GodG2316, ye did serviceG1398 unto them whichG3588 by natureG5449 areG1510 noG3361 godsG2316. 9ButG1161 nowG3568, after that ye have knownG1097 GodG2316, orG1161 ratherG3123 are knownG1097 ofG5259 GodG2316, howG4459 turn yeG1994 againG3825 toG1909 the weakG772 andG2532 beggarlyG4434 elementsG4747, whereuntoG3739 ye desireG2309 againG3825 to be in bondageG1398? 10Ye observeG3906 daysG2250, andG2532 monthsG3376, andG2532 timesG2540, andG2532 yearsG1763.

11I am afraid ofG5399 youG4771, lestG3381 I have bestowedG2872 uponG1519 youG4771 labourG2872 in vainG1500. 12BrethrenG80, I beseechG1189 youG4771, beG1096 asG5613 IG1473 am; for IG2504 am asG5613 yeG4771 are: ye haveG91 notG3762 injuredG91 meG1473 at all. 13Ye knowG1492 howG3754 throughG1223 infirmityG769 of the fleshG3588G4561 I preached the gospelG2097 unto youG4771 at the firstG4386. 14AndG2532 myG1473 temptationG3588G3986 which wasG3588 inG1722 myG1473 fleshG3588G4561 ye despisedG1848 notG3756, norG3761 rejectedG1609; butG235 receivedG1209 meG1473 asG5613 an angelG32 of GodG2316, even asG5613 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 15WhereG5101 isG1510 thenG3767 the blessednessG3588G3108 ye spake ofG4771? forG1063 I bearG3140 youG4771 recordG3140, thatG3754, ifG1487 it had been possibleG1415, ye would have plucked outG1846 your ownG4771 eyesG3588G3788, and have given themG1325 to meG1473.
