| Galatians 4:1 | Now I say that so long as an heir is a child, he in no respect differs from a slave, although he is the owner of everything, | But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a bondservant though he is lord of all; | And I say, so long time as the heir is a babe, he differeth nothing from a servant being lord of all, |
| Galatians 4:2 | but he is under the control of guardians and trustees until the time his father has appointed. | but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed of the father. | but is under tutors and stewards till the time appointed of the father, |
| Galatians 4:3 | So we also, when spiritually we were children, were subject to the world's rudimentary notions, and were enslaved. | So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the rudiments of the world: | so also we, when we were babes, under the elements of the world were in servitude, |
| Galatians 4:4 | But, when the time was fully come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born subject to Law, | but when the fulness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, | and when the fulness of time did come, God sent forth His Son, come of a woman, come under law, |
| Galatians 4:5 | in order to purchase the freedom of all who were subject to Law, so that we might receive recognition as sons. | that he might redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. | that those under law he may redeem, that the adoption of sons we may receive; |
| Galatians 4:6 | And because you are sons, God has sent out the Spirit of His Son to enter your hearts and cry "Abba! our Father!" | And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father. | and because ye are sons, God did send forth the spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, `Abba, Father!` |
| Galatians 4:7 | Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir also through God's own act. | So that thou art no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God. | so that thou art no more a servant, but a son, and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ. |
| Galatians 4:8 | But at one time, you Gentiles, having no knowledge of God, were slaves to gods which in reality do not exist. | Howbeit at that time, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to them that by nature are no gods: | But then, indeed, not having known God, ye were in servitude to those not by nature gods, |
| Galatians 4:9 | Now, however, having come to know God or rather to be known by Him how is it you are again turning back to weak and worthless rudimentary notions to which you are once more willing to be enslaved? | but now that ye have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how turn ye back again to the weak and beggarly rudiments, whereunto ye desire to be in bondage over again? | and now, having known God and rather being known by God how turn ye again unto the weak and poor elements to which anew ye desire to be in servitude? |
| Galatians 4:10 | You scrupulously observe days and months, special seasons, and years. | Ye observe days, and months, and seasons, and years. | days ye observe, and months, and times, and years! |
| Galatians 4:11 | I am alarmed about you, and am afraid that I have perhaps bestowed labour upon you to no purpose. | I am afraid of you, lest by any means I have bestowed labor upon you in vain. | I am afraid of you, lest in vain I did labour toward you. |
| Galatians 4:12 | Brethren, become as I am, I beseech you; for I have also become like you. In no respect did you behave badly to me. | I beseech you, brethren, become as I [am], for I also [am become] as ye [are]. Ye did me no wrong: | Become as I [am] because I also [am] as ye brethren, I beseech you; to me ye did no hurt, |
| Galatians 4:13 | And you know that in those early days it was on account of bodily infirmity that I proclaimed the Good News to you, | but ye know that because of an infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you the first time: | and ye have known that through infirmity of the flesh I did proclaim good news to you at the first, |
| Galatians 4:14 | and yet the bodily infirmity which was such a trial to you, you did not regard with contempt or loathing, but you received me as if I had been an angel of God or Christ Jesus Himself! | and that which was a temptation to you in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but ye received me as an angel of God, [even] as Christ Jesus. | and my trial that [is] in my flesh ye did not despise nor reject, but as a messenger of God ye did receive me as Christ Jesus; |
| Galatians 4:15 | I ask you, then, what has become of your self-congratulations? For I bear you witness that had it been possible you would have torn out your own eyes and have given them to me. | Where then is that gratulation of yourselves? for I bear you witness, that, if possible, ye would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me. | what then was your happiness? for I testify to you, that if possible, your eyes having plucked out, ye would have given to me; |
| Galatians 4:16 | Can it be that I have become your enemy through speaking the truth to you? | So then am I become your enemy, by telling you the truth? | so that your enemy have I become, being true to you? |
| Galatians 4:17 | These men pay court to you, but not with honourable motives. They want to exclude you, so that you may pay court to them. | They zealously seek you in no good way; nay, they desire to shut you out, that ye may seek them. | they are zealous for you [yet] not well, but they wish to shut us out, that for them ye may be zealous; |
| Galatians 4:18 | It is always an honourable thing to be courted in an honourable cause; always, and not only when I am with you, my children | But it is good to be zealously sought in a good matter at all times, and not only when I am present with you. | and [it is] good to be zealously regarded, in what is good, at all times, and not only in my being present with you; |
| Galatians 4:19 | you for whom I am again, as it were, undergoing the pains of childbirth, until Christ is fully formed within you. | My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you-- | my little children, of whom again I travail in birth, till Christ may be formed in you, |
| Galatians 4:20 | Would that I were with you and could change my tone, for I am perplexed about you. | but I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone; for I am perplexed about you. | and I was wishing to be present with you now, and to change my voice, because I am in doubt about you. |
| Galatians 4:21 | Tell me you who want to continue to be subject to Law will you not listen to the Law? | Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? | Tell me, ye who are willing to be under law, the law do ye not hear? |
| Galatians 4:22 | For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave-girl and one by the free woman. | For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, one by the handmaid, and one by the freewoman. | for it hath been written, that Abraham had two sons, one by the maid-servant, and one by the free-woman, |
| Galatians 4:23 | But we see that the child of the slave-girl was born in the common course of nature; but the child of the free woman in fulfilment of the promise. | Howbeit the [son] by the handmaid is born after the flesh; but the [son] by the freewoman [is born] through promise. | but he who [is] of the maid-servant, according to flesh hath been, and he who [is] of the free-woman, through the promise; |
| Galatians 4:24 | All this is allegorical; for the women represent two Covenants. One has its origin on Mount Sinai, and bears children destined for slavery. | Which things contain an allegory: for these [women] are two covenants; one from mount Sinai, bearing children unto bondage, which is Hagar. | which things are allegorized, for these are the two covenants: one, indeed, from mount Sinai, to servitude bringing forth, which is Hagar; |
| Galatians 4:25 | This is Hagar; for the name Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, which is in bondage together with her children. | Now this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia and answereth to the Jerusalem that now is: for she is in bondage with her children. | for this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and doth correspond to the Jerusalem that now [is], and is in servitude with her children, |
| Galatians 4:26 | But the Jerusalem which is above is free, and *she* is *our* mother. | But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is our mother. | and the Jerusalem above is the free-woman, which is mother of us all, |
| Galatians 4:27 | For it is written, "Rejoice, thou barren woman that bearest not, break forth into a joyful cry, thou that dost not travail with child. For the desolate woman has many children more indeed than she who has the husband." | For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; Break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: For more are the children of the desolate than of her that hath the husband. | for it hath been written, `Rejoice, O barren, who art not bearing; break forth and cry, thou who art not travailing, because many [are] the children of the desolate more than of her having the husband.` |
| Galatians 4:28 | But you, brethren, like Isaac, are children born in fulfilment of a promise. | Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of promise. | And we, brethren, as Isaac, are children of promise, |
| Galatians 4:29 | Yet just as, at that time, the child born in the common course of nature persecuted the one whose birth was due to the power of the Spirit, so it is now. | But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him [that was born] after the Spirit, so also it is now. | but as then he who was born according to the flesh did persecute him according to the spirit, so also now; |
| Galatians 4:30 | But what says the Scripture? "Send away the slave-girl and her son, for never shall the slave-girl's son share the inheritance with the son of the free woman." | Howbeit what saith the scripture? Cast out the handmaid and her son: for the son of the handmaid shall not inherit with the son of the freewoman. | but what saith the Writing? `Cast forth the maid-servant and her son, for the son of the maid-servant may not be heir with the son of the free-woman;` |
| Galatians 4:31 | Therefore, brethren, since we are not the children of a slave-girl, but of the free woman | Wherefore, brethren, we are not children of a handmaid, but of the freewoman. | then, brethren, we are not a maid-servant`s children, but the free-woman`s. |
