Galatians 4:19

Verse 19 of 31. The 4th of 6 chapters in Galatians, in The Letters of Paul.

15What was the blessing you enjoyed? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.

16So then, have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?

17They zealously seek you in no good way. No, they desire to alienate you, that you may seek them.

18But it is always good to be zealous in a good cause, and not only when I am present with you.

19My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ is formed in you—

20but I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.

21Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, don’t you listen to the law?

22For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the servant, and one by the free woman.

23However, the son by the servant was born according to the flesh, but the son by the free woman was born through promise.
