Galatians:4:8-20




noyes@Galatians:4:8 @ But at that time, indeed, when ye knew not God, ye were in slavery to those who in their nature are not gods;

noyes@Galatians:4:9 @ but now, after having known God, or rather having been known by God, how is it that ye are turning back to the weak and beggarly rudiments to which ye wish to be again in bondage?

noyes@Galatians:4:10 @ Do ye observe days, and months, and times, and years?

noyes@Galatians:4:11 @ I fear for you, lest I may have bestowed upon you labor in vain.

noyes@Galatians:4:12 @ Brethren, I beseech you, become as I am, for I also have become as ye are; ye injured me in nothing.

noyes@Galatians:4:13 @ Nay, ye know that it was on account of an infirmity of the flesh that I preached the gospel to you the former time,

noyes@Galatians:4:14 @ and my trial which was in my flesh ye did not despise nor spurn; but received me as an angel of God, yea, as Christ Jesus.

noyes@Galatians:4:15 @ How great then was your boasting of happiness! for I bear you witness, that if possible, ye would have plucked out your eyes, and have given them to me.

noyes@Galatians:4:16 @ So then, have I become your enemy because I tell you the truth?

noyes@Galatians:4:17 @ They show a zeal for you, but not in honesty; yea, they wish to exclude you, that ye may be zealous for them.

noyes@Galatians:4:18 @ But it is good to be an object of zeal in what is good always, and not only when I am present with you.

noyes@Galatians:4:19 @ My children, with whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you,––

noyes@Galatians:4:20 @ I could wish indeed to be present with you now, and to change my tone, for I am in perplexity about you.
