| 1 | I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no better than a slave, though he is the owner of all the estate; | Λέγω δέ, ἐφ' ὁσον χρόνον ὁ κληρονόμος νήπιός ἐστιν, οὐδὲν διαφέρει δούλου κύριος πάντων ὠν, | ||
| 2 | but he is under guardians and trustees until the date set by the father. | ἀλλὰ ὑπὸ ἐπιτρόπους ἐστὶν καὶ οἰκονόμους ἀχρι τῆς προθεσμίας τοῦ πατρός. | ||
| 3 | So with us; when we were children, we were slaves to the elemental spirits of the universe. | οὑτως καὶ ἡμεῖς, ὅτε ἦμεν νήπιοι, ὑπὸ τὰ στοιχεῖα τοῦ κόσμου ἠμεθα δεδουλωμένοι· | ||
| 4 | But when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, | ὅτε δὲ ἦλθεν τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ χρόνου, ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ, γενόμενον ἐκ γυναικός, γενόμενον ὑπὸ νόμον, | ||
| 5 | to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. | ἵνα τοὺς ὑπὸ νόμον ἐξαγοράσῃ, ἵνα τὴν υἱοθεσίαν ἀπολάβωμεν. | ||
| 6 | And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!" | ὁτι δέ ἐστε υἱοί, ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸ Πνεῦμα τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰς καρδίας ἡμῶν, κρᾶζον, Αββα ὁ πατήρ. | ||
| 7 | So through God you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son then an heir. | ὡστε οὐκέτι εἶ δοῦλος ἀλλὰ υἱός· εἰ δὲ υἱός, καὶ κληρονόμος διὰ θεοῦ. | ||
| 8 | Formerly, when you did not know God, you were in bondage to beings that by nature are no gods; | Paul's Concern for the Galatians Ga.4.8-20 | Ἀλλὰ τότε μὲν οὐκ εἰδότες θεὸν ἐδουλεύσατε τοῖς φύσει μὴ οὖσιν θεοῖς· | |
| 9 | but now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and beggarly elemental spirits, whose slaves you want to be once more? | νῦν δὲ γνόντες θεόν, μᾶλλον δὲ γνωσθέντες ὑπὸ θεοῦ, πῶς ἐπιστρέφετε πάλιν ἐπὶ τὰ ἀσθενῆ καὶ πτωχὰ στοιχεῖα, οἷς πάλιν ἀνωθεν δουλεύειν θέλετὲ; | ||
| 10 | You observe days, and months, and seasons, and years! | ἡμέρας παρατηρεῖσθε καὶ μῆνας καὶ καιροὺς καὶ ἐνιαυτούς. | ||
| 11 | I am afraid I have laboured over you in vain. | φοβοῦμαι ὑμᾶς μή πως εἰκῇ κεκοπίακα εἰς ὑμᾶς. | ||
| 12 | Brethren, I beseech you, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong; | Γίνεσθε ὡς ἐγώ, ὅτι κἀγὼ ὡς ὑμεῖς, ἀδελφοί, δέομαι ὑμῶν. οὐδέν με ἠδικήσατε· | ||
| 13 | you know it was because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you at first; | οἰδατε δὲ ὅτι δῖ ἀσθένειαν τῆς σαρκὸς εὐηγγελισάμην ὑμῖν τὸ πρότερον, | ||
| 14 | and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not scorn or despise me, but received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus. | καὶ τὸν πειρασμὸν ὑμῶν ἐν τῇ σαρκί μου οὐκ ἐξουθενήσατε οὐδὲ ἐξεπτύσατε, ἀλλὰ ὡς ἀγγελον θεοῦ ἐδέξασθέ με, ὡς Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν. | ||
| 15 | What has become of the satisfaction you felt? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me. | ποῦ οὖν ὁ μακαρισμὸς ὑμῶν; μαρτυρῶ γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι εἰ δυνατὸν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ὑμῶν ἐξορύξαντες ἐδώκατέ μοι. | ||
| 16 | Have I then become your enemy by telling you the truth? | ὡστε ἐχθρὸς ὑμῶν γέγονα ἀληθεύων ὑμῖν; | ||
| 17 | They make much of you, but for no good purpose; they want to shut you out, that you may make much of them. | ζηλοῦσιν ὑμᾶς οὐ καλῶς, ἀλλὰ ἐκκλεῖσαι ὑμᾶς θέλουσιν, ἵνα αὐτοὺς ζηλοῦτε. | ||
| 18 | For a good purpose it is always good to be made much of, and not only when I am present with you. | καλὸν δὲ ζηλοῦσθαι ἐν καλῷ πάντοτε, καὶ μὴ μόνον ἐν τῷ παρεῖναί με πρὸς ὑμᾶς, | ||
| 19 | My little children, with whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you! | τέκνα μου, οὓς πάλιν ὠδίνω μέχρις οὗ μορφωθῇ Χριστὸς ἐν ὑμῖν· | ||
| 20 | I could wish to be present with you now and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you. | ἠθελον δὲ παρεῖναι πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἀρτι, καὶ ἀλλάξαι τὴν φωνήν μου, ὅτι ἀποροῦμαι ἐν ὑμῖν. | ||
| 21 | Tell me, you who desire to be under law, do you not hear the law? | The Allegory of Hagar and Sarah Ga.4.21-5.1 | Λέγετέ μοι, οἱ ὑπὸ νόμον θέλοντες εἶναι, τὸν νόμον οὐκ ἀκούετὲ; | |
| 22 | For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by a slave and one by a free woman. | γέγραπται γὰρ ὅτι Ἀβραὰμ δύο υἱοὺς ἐσχεν, ἑνα ἐκ τῆς παιδίσκης καὶ ἑνα ἐκ τῆς ἐλευθέρας. | ||
| 23 | But the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, the son of the free woman through promise. | ἀλλ' ὁ μὲν ἐκ τῆς παιδίσκης κατὰ σάρκα γεγέννηται, ὁ δὲ ἐκ τῆς ἐλευθέρας δῖ ἐπαγγελίας. | ||
| 24 | Now this is an allegory: these women are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery; she is Hagar. | ἀτινά ἐστιν ἀλληγορούμενα· αὗται γάρ εἰσιν δύο διαθῆκαι, μία μὲν ἀπὸ ὀρους Σινᾶ, εἰς δουλείαν γεννῶσα, ἡτις ἐστὶν Ἁγάρ. | ||
| 25 | Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia; she corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children. | τὸ δὲ Ἁγὰρ Σινᾶ ὀρος ἐστὶν ἐν τῇ Ἀραβίᾳ, συστοιχεῖ δὲ τῇ νῦν Ἰερουσαλήμ, δουλεύει γὰρ μετὰ τῶν τέκνων αὐτῆς. | ||
| 26 | But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother. | ἡ δὲ ἀνω Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἐλευθέρα ἐστίν, ἡτις ἐστὶν μήτηρ ἡμῶν· | ||
| 27 | For it is written, "Rejoice, O barren one who does not bear; | - Rejoice, O barren one who does not bear Ga.4.27 | Is.54.1 | γέγραπται γάρ, Εὐφράνθητι, στεῖρα ἡ οὐ τίκτουσα· | |
| 28 | Now we, brethren, like Isaac, are children of promise. | ὑμεῖς δέ, ἀδελφοί, κατὰ Ἰσαὰκ ἐπαγγελίας τέκνα ἐστέ. | ||
| 29 | 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. | ἀλλ' ὡσπερ τότε ὁ κατὰ σάρκα γεννηθεὶς ἐδίωκεν τὸν κατὰ Πνεῦμα, οὑτως καὶ νῦν. | ||
| 30 | But what does the scripture say? "Cast out the slave and her son; for the son of the slave shall not inherit with the son of the free woman." | - Cast out the slave and her son Ga.4.30 | Gn.21.10 | 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. | |
| 31 | So, brethren, we are not children of the slave but of the free woman. | διό, ἀδελφοί, οὐκ ἐσμὲν παιδίσκης τέκνα ἀλλὰ τῆς ἐλευθέρας. | ||
