I say now, for as long as time the heir a child is, not he differs from a slave, [though] owner of everything being.

Instead, under guardians he is, and trustees, until the time appointed by [his] father.

So also we, when we were children, under the basic principles of the world we ourselves were held in bondage.

When however had come the fullness of the time, sent forth God the Son of him, having been born of a woman, having been born under [the] Law,

that those under [the] Law He may redeem, so that the divine adoption as sons we may receive.

Because now you are sons, sent forth God the Spirit of the Son of Him into the hearts of us, crying out, Abba, O Father!

So no longer you are a slave, but a son; if now a son, also an heir of through God

But at that time indeed not already knowing God, you were enslaved to those by nature not being gods;

now however, having known God, rather however having been known by God, how do you turn again to the weak and destitute principles, to which again anew to be enslaved you desire?

Days you observe, and months and seasons and years.

I fear for you, lest perhaps in vain I have toiled for you.

do become as I [am], because I also [have become] as you, brothers, I implore you. In nothing me You wronged.

You know now that in weakness of the flesh I proclaimed the gospel to you at the first;

and the test of you in the flesh of me, not you did despise [me], nor reject [me] with contempt; but as an angel of God, you received me even as Christ Jesus.

Where then the blessedness of you? I bear witness for to you that, if possible, the eyes of you having gouged out, you have given [them] to me.

So enemy of you have I become, speaking truth to you?

They are zealous after you not rightly, but to exclude you [from us]. They desire so that them you may be zealous after.

Good [it is] now to be zealous in a right [thing] at all times, and not only in being present my with you.

Children of me, of whom again I travail until that may have been formed Christ in you,

I was wishing indeed to be present with you presently and to change the tone of me, because I am perplexed as to you.

do tell me, you who [are] under [the] Law wishing to be, the Law not you do listen to?

It has been written for that Abraham two sons had, one of the slave woman and one of the free.

But the [one] indeed of the slave woman, according to flesh has been born; the [one] but of the free, through promise,

which things are allegorized; these for are two covenants: one indeed from Mount Sinai, unto slavery begetting, which is Hagar.

It has been written for: do rejoice, O barren woman, you who [are] not bearing; do break forth and do call aloud, you who [are] not travailing; because many [are] the children of the desolate woman more, than of [her] who having the husband.”

you now, brothers, like Isaac, of promise children you are.

But just as at that time the [one] according to flesh having been born was persecuting the [one born] according to Spirit, so also [it is] now.
