Paul Reproves the Galatians

 

Galatians 4:8-5:1

8 But even then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them, which by nature are not gods.

9 But now seeing ye know God, yea, rather are known of God, how turn ye again unto impotent and beggarly rudiments, whereunto as from the beginning ye will be in bondage again?

10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.

11 I am in fear of you, lest I have bestowed on you labor in vain.

12 Be ye as I (for I am even as you) brethren, I beseech you; ye have not hurt me at all.

13 And ye know, how through infirmity of the flesh, I preached the Gospel unto you at the first.

14 And the trial of me which was in my flesh, ye despised not, neither abhorred, but ye received me as an Angel of God, yea, as Christ Jesus.

15 What was then your felicity? For I bear you record, that if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.

16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?

17 They are jealous over you amiss, yea, they would exclude you, that ye should altogether love them.

18 But it is a good thing to love earnestly always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.

19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again, until Christ be formed in you.

20 And I would I were with you now, that I might change my voice, for I am in doubt of you.

21 Tell me, ye that will be under the Law, do ye not hear the Law?

22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, one by a servant, and one by a free woman.

23 But he which was of the servant, was born after the flesh, and he which was of the free woman, was born by promise.

24 By the which things another thing is meant; for these mothers are the two Testaments, the one which is Hagar of Mount Sinai, which gendereth unto bondage.

25 (For Hagar or Sinai is a mountain in Arabia, and it answereth to Jerusalem which now is) and she is in bondage with her children.

26 But Jerusalem, which is above, is free; which is the mother of us all.

27 For it is written, Rejoice thou barren that bearest no children; break forth, and cry, thou that travailest not; for the desolate hath many more children, than she which hath a husband.

28 Therefore, brethren, we are after the manner of Isaac, children of the promise.

29 But as then he that was born after the flesh, persecuted him that was born after the spirit, even so it is now.

30 But what saith the Scripture? Put out the servant and her son, for the son of the servant shall not be heir with the son of the free woman.

31 Then brethren, we are not children of the servant, but of the free woman.

5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Before, and many years after the KJV was printed, the GENEVA BIBLE was the People's Choice, but an ungodly King made it illegal to publish it any longer:  http://www.reformedreader.org/gbn/igb.htm
