4 And I _am _saying, because/for as _long _as time as _the heir is an_infant, nothing he _is _carrying _value from_a_slave, being master of _all things, 2 but he _is under guardians and managers, until the appointed _time by _his father.
3 Thus we also, when we _were infants, we _were having _been _enslaved under the principles of _the world.
4 But when the fullness of _the time came, the god sent _away the son of _him, having _become of woman, having _become under law, 5 in _order _that he _may _redeem the ones under the_law, in _order _that we _may _take _back the adoption _as _sons.
6 And because you _all _are sons, the god sent _away the spirit of _the son of _him into the hearts of _us crying _out:
father, the father.
7 So _as you _are no _longer a_slave, but a_son, and if a_son, also an_heir through god.
8 But then on _one _hand not having _known god, you _all _served for _the ones by _nature not being gods, 9 on _the _other _hand now having _known god, and rather having _been _known by god, how are _you _all _turning _back again to the weak and poor principles, for _which again you _all _are _wanting to _be _serving again?
?
10 You _all _are _observing days, and months, and seasons, and years.
11 I _am _fearing for _you _all, lest somehow I _have _laboured vainly for you _all.
12 Be _becoming as I am, because also _I am as you _all are, brothers, I _am _beseeching of _you _all.
You _all _did_ nothing _wrong me, 13 but you _all _have _known that because _of weakness of _the flesh, I _good _message _preached to _you _all the earlier.
14 And you _all_ not _scorned the trial of _you _all in the flesh of _me, nor you _all _disdained, but as a_messenger of_god you _all _received me, as chosen _one /messiah Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa).
15 Therefore is where the blessing of _you _all?
For/Because I _am _testifying to _you _all that if possible the eyes of _you _all having _dug _out, you _all _gave them to _me.
16 So _as being _truthful to _you _all have _I _become enemy of _you _all,?
17 They _are _being _zealous for _you _all not rightly, but they _are _willing to _exclude you _all, in _order _that you _all _may _be _being _zealous for _them.
18 But it _is good to _be _being _zealous in a_good thing always, and not only in the time me to _be _being _present with you _all.
19 Children of _me, whom again I _am _labouring _in _birth, until of _which chosen _one /messiah may _be _formed in you _all, 20 but I _was _wanting to _be _being _present with you _all now, and to _change the voice of _me, because I _am _perplexing in you _all.
21 Be _telling to _me, you _all wanting to _be under the_law, not are _you _all _hearing the law?
22 For/Because it _has _been _written that Abraʼam/(ʼAⱱrāhām) had two sons, one of the servant _girl, and one of the free woman.
23 But the one on _one _hand of the servant _girl, has _been _born according _to flesh, on _the _other _hand the one of the free woman, through a_promise.
24 Which things is being _allegorized, because/for these are two covenants:
one on _one _hand from Mount Sina/(Şīnay) to bearing slavery, which is Hagar/(Hāgār).
25 Which and Hagar is Sina Mount in the Arabia, and is _corresponding to _the present Hierousalaʸm/(Yərūshālayim), she _is _serving for with the children of _her.
26 On _the _other _hand which Hierousalaʸm above is free, who is the_mother of _us.
27 For/Because it _has _been _written:
Be _gladdened, barren woman, you not bearing, break _forth and shout, you not labouring _in _birth, because many are the children of _the desolate, more than of _the woman having the husband.
28 And you _all brothers, as Isaʼak/(Yiʦḩāq), are children of _promise.
29 But as then the one having _been _born according _to flesh, was _persecuting the one according _to spirit, thus also it _is now.
30 But what is_ The scripture _saying?
Cast _out the servant _girl and the son of _her, because/for the son of _the servant _girl no not will _be _inheriting, with the son of _the free woman.
31 Therefore brothers, we _are not children of_the_servant _girl, but of _the free woman.
