Galatians 4:12–31 · BSB

4:12 I beg you, brothers, become like me, for I became like you. You have done me no wrong.

4:13 You know that it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you.

4:14 And although my illness was a trial to you, you did not despise or reject me. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus Himself.

4:15 What then has become of your blessing? For I can testify that, if it were possible, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me.

4:16 Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth?

4:17 Those people are zealous for you, but not in a good way. Instead, they want to isolate you from us, so that you may be zealous for them.

4:18 Nevertheless, it is good to be zealous if it serves a noble purpose—at any time, and not only when I am with you.

4:19 My children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,

4:20 how I wish I could be with you now and change my tone, because I am perplexed about you.

4:21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law, do you not understand what the law says?

4:22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.

4:23 His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born through the promise.

4:24 These things serve as illustrations, for the women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children into slavery: This is Hagar.

4:25 Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present-day Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children.

4:26 But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.

4:27 For it is written: “Rejoice, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”

4:28 Now you, brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise.

4:29 At that time, however, the son born by the flesh persecuted the son born by the Spirit. It is the same now.

4:30 But what does the Scripture say? “Expel the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman’s son.”

4:31 Therefore, brothers, we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.
