W W hat I am saying is that as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he is the owner of everything.Λέγω I say V-PAI-1S δέ, now, CONJ ἐφ’ for PREP ὅσον as long as K-ASM χρόνον time N-ASM ὁ the T-NSM κληρονόμος heir N-NSM νήπιός a child A-NSM ἐστιν, is, V-PAI-3S οὐδὲν [in] no[thing] A-ASN διαφέρει he differs V-PAI-3S δούλου from a slave N-GSM κύριος [though] owner N-NSM πάντων of everything A-GPN ὤν, being; V-PAP-NSM 2 He is subject to guardians and trustees until the date set by his father.ἀλλὰ Instead CONJ ὑπὸ under PREP ἐπιτρόπους guardians N-APM ἐστὶ he is V-PAI-3S καὶ and CONJ οἰκονόμους trustees N-APM ἄχρι until PREP τῆς the T-GSF προθεσμίας time appointed N-GSF τοῦ <the> T-GSM πατρός. by [his] father. N-GSM 3 So also, when we were children, we were enslaved under the basic principles of the world.οὕτως So ADV καὶ also CONJ ἡμεῖς, we ourselves P-1NP ὅτε when CONJ ἦμεν we were V-IAI-1P νήπιοι, children, A-NPM ὑπὸ under PREP τὰ the T-APN στοιχεῖα basic principles N-APN τοῦ of the T-GSM κόσμου world N-GSM ἤμεθα we ourselves were V-IMI-1P δεδουλωμένοι· held in bondage; V-RPP-NPM 4 But when the time had fully come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,ὅτε When CONJ δὲ however CONJ ἦλθεν had come V-2AAI-3S τὸ the T-NSN πλήρωμα fullness N-NSN τοῦ of the T-GSM χρόνου, time, N-GSM ἐξαπέστειλεν sent forth V-2AAI-3S ὁ <the> T-NSM θεὸς God N-NSM-T τὸν the T-ASM υἱὸν Son N-ASM αὐτοῦ, of him, P-GSM γενόμενον having been born V-2ADP-ASM ἐκ of PREP γυναικός, a woman, N-GSF γενόμενον having been born V-2ADP-ASM ὑπὸ under PREP νόμον, [the] Law, N-ASM 5 to redeem those under the law, that we might receive our adoption as sons.ἵνα that CONJ τοὺς those T-APM ὑπὸ under PREP νόμον [the] Law N-ASM ἐξαγοράσῃ, He may redeem, V-AAS-3S ἵνα so that CONJ τὴν the T-ASF υἱοθεσίαν divine adoption as sons N-ASF ἀπολάβωμεν. we may receive. V-2AAS-1P 6 And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!”ὅτι Because CONJ δέ now CONJ ἐστε you are V-PAI-2P υἱοί, sons, N-NPM ἐξαπέστειλεν sent forth V-2AAI-3S ὁ <the> T-NSM θεὸς God N-NSM-T τὸ the T-ASN πνεῦμα Spirit N-ASN τοῦ of the T-GSM υἱοῦ Son N-GSM αὐτοῦ of Him P-GSM εἰς into PREP τὰς the T-APF καρδίας hearts N-APF ἡμῶν, of us P-1GP κρᾶζον· crying out; V-PAP-ASN Αββα Abba N-VSM-T ὁ O T-VSM πατήρ. Father! N-VSM-T 7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, you are also an heir through God.ὥστε So CONJ οὐκέτι no longer PRT-N + G2089=ADV εἶ you are V-PAI-2S δοῦλος a slave N-NSM ἀλλὰ but CONJ υἱός· a son; N-NSM εἰ if COND δὲ now CONJ υἱός, a son, N-NSM καὶ also CONJ κληρονόμος an heir of N-NSM διὰ through PREP θεοῦ. God N-GSM-T 8 Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.Ἀλλὰ But CONJ τότε at that time ADV μὲν indeed PRT οὐκ not PRT-N εἰδότες knowing V-RAP-NPM θεὸν God N-ASM-T ἐδουλεύσατε you were enslaved V-AAI-2P τοῖς to those T-DPM φύσει by nature N-DSF μὴ not PRT-N οὖσι being V-PAP-DPM θεοῖς· gods; N-DPM 9 But now that you know God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you are turning back to those weak and worthless principles? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again?νῦν now ADV δὲ however CONJ γνόντες having known V-2AAP-NPM θεόν, God, N-ASM-T μᾶλλον rather ADV δὲ however CONJ γνωσθέντες having been known V-APP-NPM ὑπὸ by PREP θεοῦ, God, N-GSM-T πῶς how PRT-I ἐπιστρέφετε do you turn V-PAI-2P πάλιν again ADV ἐπὶ to PREP τὰ the T-APN ἀσθενῆ weak A-APN καὶ and CONJ πτωχὰ destitute N-APN στοιχεῖα, principles N-APN οἷς to which R-DPN πάλιν again ADV ἄνωθεν anew ADV δουλεύειν to be enslaved V-PAN θέλετε; you desire?

N-APM 11 I fear for you, that my efforts for you may have been in vain.φοβοῦμαι I fear V-PNI-1S ὑμᾶς for you P-2AP μή lest PRT-N πως perhaps PRT εἰκῇ in vain ADV κεκοπίακα I have toiled V-RAI-1S εἰς for PREP ὑμᾶς. you. P-2AP 12 I beg you, brothers, become like me, for I became like you. You have done me no wrong.Γίνεσθε do become V-PNM-2P ὡς as PRT ἐγώ, I myself [am], P-1NS ὅτι because CONJ κἀγὼ I myself also [have become] P-1NS + G2532=CONJ ὡς as PRT ὑμεῖς, you yourselves. P-2NP ἀδελφοί, brothers, N-VPM δέομαι I implore V-PNI-1S ὑμῶν. you; P-2GP οὐδέν [In] no [thing] A-ASN με me P-1AS ἠδικήσατε· You wronged. V-AAI-2P 13 You know that it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you.οἴδατε You know V-RAI-2P δὲ now CONJ ὅτι that CONJ δι’ in PREP ἀσθένειαν weakness N-ASF τῆς of the T-GSF σαρκὸς flesh N-GSF εὐηγγελισάμην I evangelised V-AMI-1S ὑμῖν to you P-2DP τὸ at the T-ASN πρότερον, first, A-ASN-C 14 And although my illness was a trial to you, you did not despise or reject me. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus Himself.καὶ and CONJ τὸν the T-ASM πειρασμὸν test N-ASM ὑμῶν of you P-2GP ἐν in PREP τῇ the T-DSF σαρκί flesh N-DSF μου of mine P-1GS οὐκ not PRT-N ἐξουθενήσατε you did despise [me] V-AAI-2P οὐδὲ nor CONJ-N ἐξεπτύσατε, reject [me] with contempt, V-AAI-2P ἀλλὰ but CONJ ὡς as PRT ἄγγελον an angel N-ASM θεοῦ of God N-GSM-T ἐδέξασθέ you received V-AMI-2P με, me P-1AS ὡς even as PRT Χριστὸν Christ N-ASM-T Ἰησοῦν.

17 Those people are zealous for you, but not in a good way. Instead, they want to isolate you from us, so that you may be zealous for them.ζηλοῦσιν They are zealous after V-PAI-3P ὑμᾶς you P-2AP οὐ not PRT-N καλῶς, rightly, ADV ἀλλὰ but CONJ ἐκκλεῖσαι to exclude V-AAN ὑμᾶς you [from us] P-2AP θέλουσιν, They desire V-PAI-3P ἵνα so that CONJ αὐτοὺς them P-APM ζηλοῦτε. you may be zealous after. V-PAS-2P 18 Nevertheless, it is good to be zealous if it serves a noble purpose—at any time, and not only when I am with you.καλὸν Good [it is] A-NSN δὲ now CONJ ζηλοῦσθαι to be zealous V-PMN ἐν in PREP καλῷ a right [thing] A-DSN πάντοτε, at all times, ADV καὶ and CONJ μὴ not PRT-N μόνον only A-ASN ἐν in PREP τῷ <the> T-DSN παρεῖναί being present V-2PAN με me P-1AS πρὸς with PREP ὑμᾶς, you, P-2AP 19 My children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,τέκνα Children N-VPN μου, of mine, P-1GS οὓς of whom R-APM πάλιν again ADV ὠδίνω I travail V-PAI-1S μέχρις until PREP οὗ that R-GSM μορφωθῇ may have been formed V-APS-3S Χριστὸς Christ N-NSM-T ἐν in PREP ὑμῖν· you. P-2DP 20 how I wish I could be with you now and change my tone, because I am perplexed about you.ἤθελον I was wishing V-IAI-1S δὲ indeed CONJ παρεῖναι to be present V-2PAN πρὸς with PREP ὑμᾶς you P-2AP ἄρτι, presently ADV καὶ and CONJ ἀλλάξαι to change V-AAN τὴν the T-ASF φωνήν tone N-ASF μου, of mine, P-1GS ὅτι because CONJ ἀποροῦμαι I am perplexed V-PMI-1S ἐν as to PREP ὑμῖν. you. P-2DP 21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law, do you not understand what the law says?Λέγετέ do tell V-PAM-2P μοι, me, P-1DS οἱ you who [are] T-VPM ὑπὸ under PREP νόμον [the] Law N-ASM θέλοντες wishing V-PAP-VPM εἶναι, to be, V-PAN τὸν the T-ASM νόμον Law N-ASM οὐκ not PRT-N ἀκούετε; you do listen to? V-PAI-2P 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.γέγραπται It has been written V-RPI-3S γὰρ for CONJ ὅτι that CONJ Ἀβραὰμ Abraham N-NSM-P δύο two A-NUI υἱοὺς sons N-APM ἔσχεν, had, V-2AAI-3S ἕνα one A-ASM ἐκ of PREP τῆς the T-GSF παιδίσκης slave woman N-GSF καὶ and CONJ ἕνα one A-ASM ἐκ of PREP τῆς the T-GSF ἐλευθέρας· free. A-GSF 23 His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born through the promise.ἀλλ’ But CONJ ὁ the [one] T-NSM μὲν indeed PRT ἐκ of PREP τῆς the T-GSF παιδίσκης slave woman N-GSF κατὰ according to PREP σάρκα flesh N-ASF γεγέννηται, has been born, V-RPI-3S ὁ the [one] T-NSM δὲ however CONJ ἐκ of PREP τῆς the T-GSF ἐλευθέρας free A-GSF δι’ through PREP ἐπαγγελίας. promise. N-GSF 24 These things serve as illustrations, for the women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children into slavery: This is Hagar.ἅτινά which things R-NPN ἐστιν are V-PAI-3S ἀλληγορούμενα· allegorized; V-PPP-NPN αὗται these D-NPF γάρ for CONJ εἰσιν are V-PAI-3P δύο two A-NUI διαθῆκαι, covenants, N-NPF μία one A-NSF μὲν indeed PRT ἀπὸ from PREP ὄρους Mount N-GSN-L Σινᾶ, Sinai N-GSN-L εἰς unto PREP δουλείαν slavery N-ASF γεννῶσα, begetting V-PAP-NSF ἥτις which R-NSF ἐστὶν is V-PAI-3S Ἁγάρ, Hagar. N-NSF-P 25 Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present-day Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children.τὸ <the> T-NSN δὲ Now CONJ Ἁγὰρ Hagar N-NSF-P Σινᾶ Sinai N-NSN-L ὄρος Mount N-NSN-L ἐστὶν is V-PAI-3S ἐν in PREP τῇ <the> T-DSF Ἀραβίᾳ, Arabia, N-DSF-L συστοιχεῖ she corresponds V-PAI-3S δὲ now CONJ τῇ to the T-DSF νῦν present ADV Ἰερουσαλήμ, Jerusalem, N-DSF-L δουλεύει she is in slavery V-PAI-3S γὰρ for CONJ μετὰ with PREP τῶν the T-GPN τέκνων children N-GPN αὐτῆς· of her. P-GSF 26 But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.ἡ <the> T-NSF δὲ But CONJ ἄνω the above ADV Ἰερουσαλὴμ Jerusalem N-NSF-L ἐλευθέρα free A-NSF ἐστίν, is V-PAI-3S ἥτις who R-NSF ἐστὶν is V-PAI-3S μήτηρ mother N-NSF ἡμῶν· of us; P-1GP 27 For it is written: “Rejoice, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”γέγραπται It has been written V-RPI-3S γάρ· for: CONJ Εὐφράνθητι, do rejoice V-APM-2S στεῖρα O barren woman N-VSF ἡ you who [are] T-VSF οὐ not PRT-N τίκτουσα, bearing, V-PAP-VSF ῥῆξον do break forth V-AAM-2S καὶ and CONJ βόησον, do call aloud V-AAM-2S ἡ you who [are] T-VSF οὐκ not PRT-N ὠδίνουσα· travailing, V-PAP-VSF ὅτι because CONJ πολλὰ many A-NPN τὰ [are] the T-NPN τέκνα children N-NPN τῆς of the T-GSF ἐρήμου desolate woman A-GSF μᾶλλον more ADV ἢ than CONJ τῆς of [her] who T-GSF ἐχούσης having V-PAP-GSF τὸν the T-ASM ἄνδρα. husband. N-ASM 28 Now you, brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise.ὑμεῖς you yourselves P-2NP δέ, now, CONJ ἀδελφοί, brothers, N-VPM κατὰ like PREP Ἰσαὰκ Isaac N-ASM-P ἐπαγγελίας of promise N-GSF τέκνα children N-NPN ἐστέ· you are. V-PAI-2P 29 At that time, however, the son born by the flesh persecuted the son born by the Spirit. It is the same now.ἀλλ’ But CONJ ὥσπερ just as CONJ τότε at that time ADV ὁ the [one] T-NSM κατὰ according to PREP σάρκα flesh N-ASF γεννηθεὶς having been born V-APP-NSM ἐδίωκε he was persecuting V-IAI-3S τὸν the [one born] T-ASM κατὰ according to PREP πνεῦμα, Spirit N-ASN οὕτως so ADV καὶ also CONJ νῦν. [it is] now; ADV 30 But what does the Scripture say? “Expel the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman’s son.”ἀλλὰ But CONJ τί what I-ASN λέγει says V-PAI-3S ἡ the T-NSF γραφή; Scripture? N-NSF Ἔκβαλε do cast out V-2AAM-2S τὴν the T-ASF παιδίσκην slave woman N-ASF καὶ and CONJ τὸν the T-ASM υἱὸν son N-ASM αὐτῆς, of her, P-GSF οὐ certainly PRT-N γὰρ for CONJ μὴ not PRT-N κληρονομήσει will inherit V-FAI-3S ὁ the T-NSM υἱὸς son N-NSM τῆς of the T-GSF παιδίσκης slave woman N-GSF μετὰ along with PREP τοῦ the T-GSM υἱοῦ son N-GSM τῆς of the T-GSF ἐλευθέρας. free. A-GSF 31 Therefore, brothers, we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.διό, So then, CONJ ἀδελφοί, brothers, N-VPM οὐκ not PRT-N ἐσμὲν we are V-PAI-1P παιδίσκης of [the] slave woman N-GSF τέκνα children N-NPN ἀλλὰ but CONJ τῆς of the T-GSF ἐλευθέρας. free; A-GSF
