| 4:1 Λέγω δέ, ἐφ᾿ ὅσον χρόνον ὁ κληρονόμος νήπιός ἐστιν, οὐδὲν διαφέρει δούλου κύριος πάντων ὤν, | 1 Λέγω δέ, ἐφ᾿ ὅσον χρόνον ὁ κληρονόμος νήπιός ἐστιν, οὐδὲν διαφέρει δούλου, κύριος πάντων ὤν· |
| Now I say, as long as the heir is a child, he doesn’t differ at all from a slave although he is owner of everything, | Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; |
| 4:2 ἀλλὰ ὑπὸ ἐπιτρόπους ἐστὶν καὶ οἰκονόμους ἄχρι τῆς προθεσμίας τοῦ πατρός. | 2 ἀλλὰ ὑπὸ ἐπιτρόπους ἐστὶ καὶ οἰκονόμους, ἄχρι τῆς προθεσμίας τοῦ πατρός. |
| but he is under guardians and managers until the date set by the father. | But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father. |
| 4:3 οὕτως καὶ ἡμεῖς, ὅτε ἦμεν νήπιοι, ὑπὸ τὰ στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου ἤμεθα δεδουλωμένοι· | 3 οὕτω καὶ ἡμεῖς, ὅτε ἦμεν νήπιοι, ὑπὸ τὰ στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου ἦμεν δεδουλωμένοι· |
| So also we, while we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental things of the world. | Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: |
| 4:4 ὅτε δὲ ἦλθεν τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ χρόνου, ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ, γενόμενον ἐκ γυναικός, γενόμενον ὑπὸ νόμον, | 4 ὅτε δὲ ἦλθε τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ χρόνου, ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ, γενόμενον ἐκ γυναικός, γενόμενον ὑπὸ νόμον, |
| But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, | But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, |
| 4:5 ἵνα τοὺς ὑπὸ νόμον ἐξαγοράσῃ, ἵνα τὴν υἱοθεσίαν ἀπολάβωμεν. | 5 ἵνα τοὺς ὑπὸ νόμον ἐξαγοράσῃ, ἵνα τὴν υἱοθεσίαν ἀπολάβωμεν. |
| so that he might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. | To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. |
|
4:6 Ὅτι
δὲ
ἐστε
υἱοὶ,
ἐξαπέστειλεν
ὁ
θεὸς
τὸ
πνεῦμα
τοῦ
υἱοῦ
αὐτοῦ
εἰς
τὰς
καρδίας
ἡμῶν
κρᾶζον· ἀββα ὁ πατήρ. |
6 Ὅτι δέ ἐστε υἱοί, ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸ πνεῦμα τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰς καρδίας ἡμῶν, κρᾶζον, ἀββα ὁ πατήρ. |
| Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” | And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. |
|
4:7 ὥστε
οὐκέτι
εἶ
δοῦλος
ἀλλὰ
υἱός· εἰ δὲ υἱός, καὶ κληρονόμος διὰ θεοῦ. |
7 ὥστε
οὐκ
ἔτι
εἶ
δοῦλος,
ἀλλ᾿
υἱός· εἰ δὲ υἱός, καὶ κληρονόμος θεοῦ διὰ Χριστοῦ. |
| Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God. | Wherefore you are no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ. |
| 4:8 Ἀλλὰ τότε μὲν οὐκ εἰδότες θεὸν ἐδουλεύσατε τοῖς φύσει μὴ οὖσιν θεοῖς· | 8 Ἀλλὰ τότε μὲν οὐκ εἰδότες θεόν, ἐδουλεύσατε τοῖς μὴ φύσει οὖσι θεοῖς· |
| However at that time, when you didn’t know God, you were slaves to those which by nature are no gods. | Howbeit then, when you knew not God, you did service unto them which by nature are no gods. |
| 4:9 νῦν δὲ γνόντες θεόν, μᾶλλον δὲ γνωσθέντες ὑπὸ θεοῦ, πῶς ἐπιστρέφετε πάλιν ἐπὶ τὰ ἀσθενῆ καὶ πτωχὰ στοιχεῖα οἷς πάλιν ἄνωθεν δουλεῦσαι θέλετε; | 9 νῦν δέ, γνόντες θεόν, μᾶλλον δὲ γνωσθέντες ὑπὸ θεοῦ, πῶς ἐπιστρέφετε πάλιν ἐπὶ τὰ ἀσθενῆ καὶ πτωχὰ στοιχεῖα, οἷς πάλιν ἄνωθεν δουλεύειν θέλετε; |
| But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you turn back again to the weak and worthless elemental things, to which you desire to be enslaved all over again? | But now, after that you have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn you again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto you desire again to be in bondage? |
| 4:10 ἡμέρας παρατηρεῖσθε καὶ μῆνας καὶ καιροὺς καὶ ἐνιαυτούς, | 10 ἡμέρας παρατηρεῖσθε, καὶ μῆνας, καὶ καιρούς, καὶ ἐνιαυτούς. |
| You observe days and months and seasons and years. | You observe days, and months, and times, and years. |
| 4:11 φοβοῦμαι ὑμᾶς μή πως εἰκῇ κεκοπίακα εἰς ὑμᾶς. | 11 φοβοῦμαι ὑμᾶς, μή πως εἰκῇ κεκοπίακα εἰς ὑμᾶς. |
| I fear for you, that perhaps I have laboured over you in vain. | I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain. |
|
4:12 Γίνεσθε
ὡς
ἐγώ,
ὅτι
κἀγὼ
ὡς
ὑμεῖς,
ἀδελφοί,
δέομαι
ὑμῶν. οὐδέν με ἠδικήσατε· |
12 Γίνεσθε
ὡς
ἐγώ,
ὅτι
κἀγὼ
ὡς
ὑμεῖς,
ἀδελφοί,
δέομαι
ὑμῶν. οὐδέν με ἠδικήσατε. |
| I beg of you, brothers, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You have done me no wrong; | Brothers, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as you are: you have not injured me at all. |
| 4:13 οἴδατε δὲ ὅτι δι᾿ ἀσθένειαν τῆς σαρκὸς εὐηγγελισάμην ὑμῖν τὸ πρότερον, | 13 οἴδατε δὲ ὅτι δι᾿ ἀσθένειαν τῆς σαρκὸς εὐηγγελισάμην ὑμῖν τὸ πρότερον, |
| but you know that it was because of a bodily illness that I preached the gospel to you the first time; | You know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first. |
| 4:14 καὶ τὸν πειρασμὸν ὑμῶν ἐν τῇ σαρκί μου οὐκ ἐξουθενήσατε οὐδὲ ἐξεπτύσατε, ἀλλὰ ὡς ἄγγελον θεοῦ ἐδέξασθέ με, ὡς Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν. | 14 καὶ τὸν πειρασμόν μου τὸν ἐν τῇ σαρκί μου οὐκ ἐξουθενήσατε οὐδὲ ἐξεπτύσατε, ἀλλ᾿ ὡς ἄγγελον θεοῦ ἐδέξασθέ με, ὡς Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν· |
| and that which was a trial to you in my bodily condition you didn’t despise or loathe, but you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus himself. | And my temptation which was in my flesh you despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus. |
|
4:15 ποῦ
οὖν
ὁ
μακαρισμὸς
ὑμῶν; μαρτυρῶ γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι εἰ δυνατὸν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ὑμῶν ἐξορύξαντες ἐδώκατέ μοι. |
15 τίς
οὖν
ἦν
ὁ
μακαρισμὸς
ὑμῶν; μαρτυρῶ γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι, εἰ δυνατόν, τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ὑμῶν ἐξορύξαντες ἂν ἐδώκατέ μοι. |
| Where then is that sense of blessing you had? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me. | Where is then the blessedness you spoke of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me. |
| 4:16 ὥστε ἐχθρὸς ὑμῶν γέγονα ἀληθεύων ὑμῖν; | 16 ὥστε ἐχθρὸς ὑμῶν γέγονα ἀληθεύων ὑμῖν; |
| So have I become your enemy by telling you the truth? | Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth? |
| 4:17 ζηλοῦσιν ὑμᾶς οὐ καλῶς, ἀλλὰ ἐκκλεῖσαι ὑμᾶς θέλουσιν, ἵνα αὐτοὺς ζηλοῦτε· | 17 ζηλοῦσιν ὑμᾶς οὐ καλῶς, ἀλλὰ ἐκκλεῖσαι ὑμᾶς θέλουσιν, ἵνα αὐτοὺς ζηλοῦτε. |
| They eagerly seek you, not commendably, but they wish to shut you out so that you will seek them. | They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that you might affect them. |
| 4:18 καλὸν δὲ ζηλοῦσθαι ἐν καλῷ πάντοτε καὶ μὴ μόνον ἐν τῷ παρεῖναί με πρὸς ὑμᾶς. | 18 καλὸν δὲ τὸ ζηλοῦσθαι ἐν καλῷ πάντοτε, καὶ μὴ μόνον ἐν τῷ παρεῖναί με πρὸς ὑμᾶς, |
| But it is good always to be eagerly sought in a commendable manner, and not only when I am present with you. | But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you. |
| 4:19 τέκνα μου, οὓς πάλιν ὠδίνω μέχρις οὗ μορφωθῇ Χριστὸς ἐν ὑμῖν· | 19 τεκνία μου, οὓς πάλιν ὠδίνω, ἄχρις οὗ μορφωθῇ Χριστὸς ἐν ὑμῖν· |
| My children, with whom I am again in labour until Christ is formed in you— | My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you, |
| 4:20 ἤθελον δὲ παρεῖναι πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἄρτι καὶ ἀλλάξαι τὴν φωνήν μου, ὅτι ἀποροῦμαι ἐν ὑμῖν. | 20 ἤθελον δὲ παρεῖναι πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἄρτι, καὶ ἀλλάξαι τὴν φωνήν μου, ὅτι ἀποροῦμαι ἐν ὑμῖν. |
| but I could wish to be present with you now and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you. | I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you. |
| 4:21 Λέγετέ μοι, οἱ ὑπὸ νόμον θέλοντες εἶναι, τὸν νόμον οὐκ ἀκούετε; | 21 Λέγετέ μοι, οἱ ὑπὸ νόμον θέλοντες εἶναι, τὸν νόμον οὐκ ἀκούετε; |
| Tell me, you who want to be under law, do you not listen to the law? | Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law? |
| 4:22 γέγραπται γὰρ ὅτι Ἀβραὰμ δύο υἱοὺς ἔσχεν, ἕνα ἐκ τῆς παιδίσκης καὶ ἕνα ἐκ τῆς ἐλευθέρας. |
22 γέγραπται
γάρ,
ὅτι
Ἀβραὰμ
δύο
υἱοὺς
ἔσχεν· ἕνα ἐκ τῆς παιδίσκης, καὶ ἕνα ἐκ τῆς ἐλευθέρας· |
| For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the bondwoman and one by the free woman. | For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. |
| 4:23 ἀλλ᾿ ὁ μὲν ἐκ τῆς παιδίσκης κατὰ σάρκα γεγέννηται, ὁ δὲ ἐκ τῆς ἐλευθέρας δι᾿ ἐπαγγελίας. |
23 ἀλλ᾿
ὁ
μὲν
ἐκ
τῆς
παιδίσκης,
κατὰ
σάρκα
γεγέννηται· ὁ δὲ ἐκ τῆς ἐλευθέρας, διὰ τῆς ἐπαγγελίας. |
| But the son by the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and the son by the free woman through the promise. | But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. |
|
4:24 ἅτινά
ἐστιν
ἀλληγορούμενα· αὗται γάρ εἰσιν δύο διαθῆκαι, μία μὲν ἀπὸ ὄρους Σινᾶ εἰς δουλείαν γεννῶσα, ἥτις ἐστὶν Ἁγάρ. |
24 ἅτινά
ἐστιν
ἀλληγορούμενα· αὗται γάρ εἰσιν αἱ δύο διαθῆκαι· μία μὲν ἀπὸ ὄρους Σινᾶ, εἰς δουλείαν γεννῶσα, ἥτις ἐστὶν Ἄγαρ. |
| This is allegorically speaking, for these women are two covenants: one proceeding from Mount Sinai bearing children who are to be slaves; she is Hagar. | Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar. |
|
4:25 τὸ
δὲ
Ἁγὰρ
Σινᾶ
ὄρος
ἐστὶν
ἐν
τῇ
Ἀραβίᾳ· συστοιχεῖ δὲ τῇ νῦν Ἰερουσαλήμ, δουλεύει γὰρ μετὰ τῶν τέκνων αὐτῆς. |
25 τὸ γὰρ Ἄγαρ Σινᾶ ὄρος ἐστὶν ἐν τῇ Ἀραβίᾳ, συστοιχεῖ δὲ τῇ νῦν Ἰερουσαλήμ, δουλεύει δὲ μετὰ τῶν τέκνων αὐτῆς. |
| Now this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children. | For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. |
| 4:26 ἡ δὲ ἄνω Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἐλευθέρα ἐστίν, ἥτις ἐστὶν μήτηρ ἡμῶν· | 26 ἡ δὲ ἄνω Ἰερουσαλήμ, ἐλευθέρα ἐστίν, ἥτις ἐστὶ μήτηρ πάντων ἡμῶν· |
| But the Jerusalem above is free; she is our mother. | But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. |
|
4:27 γέγραπται
γάρ,
εὐφράνθητι,
στεῖρα
ἡ
οὐ
τίκτουσα,
ῥῆξον
καὶ
βόησον,
ἡ
οὐκ
ὠδίνουσα· ὅτι πολλὰ τὰ τέκνα τῆς ἐρήμου μᾶλλον ἢ τῆς ἐχούσης τὸν ἄνδρα. |
27 γέγραπται
γάρ,
εὐφράνθητι,
στεῖρα
ἡ
οὐ
τίκτουσα· ῥῆξον καὶ βόησον ἡ οὐκ ὠδίνουσα· ὅτι πολλὰ τὰ τέκνα τῆς ἐρήμου μᾶλλον ἢ τῆς ἐχούσης τὸν ἄνδρα. |
| For it is written, “Rejoice, barren woman who doesn’t bear; Break forth and shout, you who are not in labour; For more numerous are the children of the desolate Than of the one who has a husband.” | For it is written, Rejoice, you barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, you that travailest not: for the desolate has many more children than she which has an husband. |
| 4:28 ὑμεῖς δέ, ἀδελφοί, κατὰ Ἰσαὰκ ἐπαγγελίας τέκνα ἐστέ. | 28 ὑμεῖς δέ, ἀδελφοί, κατὰ Ἰσαάκ, ἐπαγγελίας τέκνα ἐσμέν. |
| And you brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise. | Now we, brothers, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. |
| 4:29 ἀλλ᾿ ὥσπερ τότε ὁ κατὰ σάρκα γεννηθεὶς ἐδίωκεν τὸν κατὰ πνεῦμα, οὕτως καὶ νῦν. | 29 ἀλλ᾿ ὥσπερ τότε ὁ κατὰ σάρκα γεννηθεὶς ἐδίωκε τὸν κατὰ πνεῦμα, οὕτω καὶ νῦν. |
| But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now also. | But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. |
|
4:30 ἀλλὰ
τί
λέγει
ἡ
γραφή; ἔκβαλε τὴν παιδίσκην καὶ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς· οὐ γὰρ μὴ κληρονομήσει ὁ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης μετὰ τοῦ υἱοῦ τῆς ἐλευθέρας. |
30 ἀλλὰ
τί
λέγει
ἡ
γραφή; ἔκβαλε τὴν παιδίσκην καὶ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς, οὐ γὰρ μὴ κληρονομήσῃ ὁ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης μετὰ τοῦ υἱοῦ τῆς ἐλευθέρας. |
| But what does the Scripture say? “Cast out the bondwoman and her son, For the son of the bondwoman shall not be an heir with the son of the free woman.” | Nevertheless what says the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. |
| 4:31 διό, ἀδελφοί, οὐκ ἐσμὲν παιδίσκης τέκνα ἀλλὰ τῆς ἐλευθέρας. | 31 ἄρα, ἀδελφοί, οὐκ ἐσμὲν παιδίσκης τέκνα, ἀλλὰ τῆς ἐλευθέρας. |
| So then, brothers, we are not children of a bondwoman, but of the free woman. | So then, brothers, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free. |
