Compare: Galatians 4

ASV

But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a bondservant though he is lord of all;

ASV

but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed of the father.

ASV

So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the rudiments of the world:

ASV

but when the fulness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

ASV

that he might redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

ASV

And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

ASV

So that thou art no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God.

ASV

Howbeit at that time, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to them that by nature are no gods:

ASV

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?

ASV

Ye observe days, and months, and seasons, and years.

ASV

I am afraid of you, lest by any means I have bestowed labor upon you in vain.

ASV

I beseech you, brethren, become as I [am], for I also [am become] as ye [are]. Ye did me no wrong:

ASV

but ye know that because of an infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you the first time:

ASV

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.

ASV

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.

ASV

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

ASV

They zealously seek you in no good way; nay, they desire to shut you out, that ye may seek them.

ASV

But it is good to be zealously sought in a good matter at all times, and not only when I am present with you.

ASV

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

ASV

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

ASV

Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?

ASV

For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, one by the handmaid, and one by the freewoman.

ASV

Howbeit the [son] by the handmaid is born after the flesh; but the [son] by the freewoman [is born] through promise.

ASV

Which things contain an allegory: for these [women] are two covenants; one from mount Sinai, bearing children unto bondage, which is Hagar.

ASV

Now this Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia and answereth to the Jerusalem that now is: for she is in bondage with her children.

ASV

But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is our mother.

ASV

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.

ASV

Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of promise.

ASV

But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him [that was born] after the Spirit, so also it is now.

ASV

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.

ASV

Wherefore, brethren, we are not children of a handmaid, but of the freewoman.
