Ye didG1096 meG1473 noG3762 wrongG91: 13butG1161 ye knowG1492 thatG3754 becauseG3754 ofG1223 anG1161 infirmityG769 ofG1223 theG3588 fleshG4561 IG3754 preachedG2097 theG3588 gospelG2097 unto youG5210 theG3588 firstG4387 timeG4387: 14andG2532 thatG2316 whichG3588 was a temptationG3986 toG2532 youG5210 inG1722 myG1722 fleshG4561 ye despisedG1848 notG3756, norG3761 rejectedG1848; butG235 ye receivedG1209 meG1473 asG5613 anG32 angelG32 ofG2316 GodG2316, evenG2532 asG5613 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 15WhereG4226 thenG3767 is thatG3754 gratulation ofG3588 yourselvesG4771? forG1063 IG1473 bearG3140 youG5210 witnessG3140, thatG3754, ifG1487 possibleG1415, ye would have pluckedG1846 outG1325 yourG1487 eyesG3788 andG3788 givenG1325 themG1325 toG1325 meG1325. 16SoG5620 thenG5620 amG1096 IG1096 becomeG1096 yourG1096 enemyG2190, because IG1096 tell youG5210 theG1096 truthG226? 17TheyG846 zealously seekG2206 youG5210 inG1438 noG3756 goodG2573 wayG846; nay, theyG846 desireG2309 toG2443 shutG1576 youG5210 outG1438, thatG2443 ye mayG2443 seekG2206 themG846. 18ButG1161 itG1161 is goodG2570 toG4314 beG2532 zealously soughtG2206 inG1722 a goodG2570 matter at allG3588 timesG3842, andG2532 notG3361 onlyG3440 whenG2532 IG1473 amG1473 presentG3918 withG1722 youG5210. 19MyG1722 little childrenG5043, ofG5043 whomG3739 IG1473 amG5605 againG3825 inG1722 travail untilG3360 ChristG5547 beG5547 formedG3445 inG1722 youG5210, 20yea, IG1473 could wishG2309 toG4314 beG2532 presentG737 withG1722 youG5210 nowG1161, andG2532 toG4314 changeG236 myG1722 voiceG5456; forG3754 IG1473 amG2309 perplexedG639 aboutG1722 youG5210. 21TellG3004 meG3004, ye thatG3004 desireG2309 toG3004 beG1510 underG5259 theG3588 lawG3551, doG1510 ye notG3756 hearG191 theG3588 lawG3551? 22ForG1063 itG2532 is writtenG1125, thatG3754 AbrahamG11 had twoG1417 sonsG5207, oneG1520 byG1537 theG3588 handmaid, andG2532 oneG1520 byG1537 theG3588 freewoman. 23Howbeit theG3588 son byG1223 theG3588 handmaid is bornG1080 afterG2596 theG3588 fleshG4561; butG1161 theG3588 son byG1223 theG3588 freewoman is bornG1080 throughG1223 promiseG1860. 24WhichG3748 thingsG3778 contain anG1510 allegory: forG1063 theseG3778 womenG1417 areG1510 twoG1417 covenantsG1242; oneG1520 fromG575 mountG3735 SinaiG4614, bearingG1080 childrenG1080 unto bondage, whichG3748 isG1510 HagarG28. 25NowG1161 thisG3588 Hagar isG1510 mountG3735 SinaiG4614 inG1722 ArabiaG688, andG1161 answereth toG1722 theG3588 JerusalemG2419 thatG846 nowG1161 isG1510: forG1063 sheG846 isG1510 inG1722 bondageG1398 withG3326 herG846 childrenG5043. 26ButG1161 theG3588 JerusalemG2419 thatG3748 isG1510 aboveG507 isG1510 freeG1658, whichG3748 isG1510 ourG1161 motherG3384. 27ForG1063 itG2532 is writtenG1125, RejoiceG2165, thou barrenG4723 thatG3754 bearest notG3756; BreakG4486 forthG4486 andG2532 cryG994, thou thatG3754 travailest notG3756: ForG1063 moreG3123 are theG3588 childrenG5043 ofG435 theG3588 desolateG2048 thanG2228 ofG435 herG3754 whichG3748 hath theG3588 husbandG435. 28NowG1161 weG1161, brethrenG80, asG2596 IsaacG2464 wasG1510, areG1510 childrenG5043 ofG5043 promiseG1860. 29ButG235 asG5618 thenG2532 heG2532 thatG2596 was bornG1080 afterG2596 theG3588 fleshG4561 persecutedG1377 himG2532 thatG2596 was bornG1080 afterG2596 theG3588 SpiritG4151, evenG2532 soG2532 itG5119 is nowG3568. 30Howbeit whatG5101 saith theG3588 scriptureG1124? CastG1544 outG1544 theG3588 handmaid andG2532 herG846 sonG5207: forG1063 theG3588 sonG5207 ofG5207 theG3588 handmaid shallG2532 notG3756 inheritG2816 withG3326 theG3588 sonG5207 ofG5207 theG3588 freewoman. 31WhereforeG1352, brethrenG80, weG1510 areG1510 notG3756 childrenG5043 ofG5043 aG1510 handmaid, butG235 ofG5043 theG3588 freewoman.
