1Now I say, as long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
1Rhopangkung te cahmang la a om khui boeih atah sal khaw, boei khaw, aka om boeih te a tanglue tloe moenih ka ti coeng.
2But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed by the father:
2Tedae pa kah a tuetang duela imtawt neh hnokhoem kut hmuiah a om sak.
3So we also, when we were children, were serving under the elements of the world.
3Te dongah mamih khaw cahmang la n'om uh vaengah Diklai kah a niing hmuiah sal aka bi la n'om?
4But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent his Son, made of a woman, made under the law:
4Tedae a tue a soepnah loh ha pawk vaengah Pathen loh a capa te han tueih. Huta lamloh om tih olkhueng hmuiah phoe.
5That he might redeem them who were under the law: that we might receive the adoption of sons.
5Te daengah ni olkhueng hmuikah rhoek te a tlan eh. Te daengah ni a cacah la m'phaeng eh.
6And because you are sons, God hath sent the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying: Abba, Father.
6Te dongah ca rhoek la na om uh coeng. Abba apa tila aka pang a capa kah Mueihla te Pathen loh mamih thinko ah han tueih.
7Therefore now he is not a servant, but a son. And if a son, an heir also through God.
7Te dongah sal voel pawt tih ca la na om uh coeng. Ca tah Pathen rhangneh rhopangkung la om van.
8But then indeed, not knowing God, you served them, who, by nature, are not gods.
8Tedae Pathen ana ming pawt vaengah a coengnah loh pathen la aka om pawt rhoek kah sal na bi uh.
9But now, after that you have known God, or rather are known by God: how turn you again to the weak and needy elements, which you desire to serve again?
9Tedae Pathen te mingpha coeng ta. Te dongah Pathen loh lat m'ming ta. Metlae tattloel neh a niing aka khodaeng taengla koep na mael uh. Te rhoek taengah salbi ham koekhoek koep na ngaih uh.
10You observe days, and months, and times, and years.
10Khohnin khaw, hla khaw, khoning khaw, kum khaw na yaeh uh coeng.
11I am afraid of you, lest perhaps I have laboured in vain among you.
11Nangmih ham ka thakthae he a hoeihae pawt khaming tila nangmih taengah ka birhih.
12Be ye as I, because I also am as you: brethren, I beseech you: you have not injured me at all.
12Kai bangla om uh lah. Kai khaw nangmih vanbang ni tila manuca rhoek nangmih te kan hloep. Kai nan veet uh moenih.
13And you know, how through infirmity of the flesh, I preached the gospel to you heretofore: and your temptation in my flesh,
13Tedae a cuekca kah nangmih taengah ka phong te pumsa kah vawtthoek dongah tila na ming uh.
14You despised not, nor rejected: but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
14Ka pumsa ah nangmih ham noemcainah om cakhaw nan hnaelcoe uh pawt tih nan tuei uh moenih. Tedae Pathen kah puencawn bangla, Jesuh Khrih bangla kai nan doe uh.
15Where is then your blessedness? For I bear you witness, that, if it could be done, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and would have given them to me.
15Te koinih nangmih kah yoethennah tah menim? A phoeng mai koinih na mik te na koeih uh tih kai nan paek uh mako tila nangmih taengah ka laipai.
16Am I then become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
16Nangmih ham oltak ka thui dongah nangmih kah rhal la ka coeng a?
17They are zealous in your regard not well: but they would exclude you, that you might be zealous for them.
17Nangmih taengah a thatlai uh te thuem pawh. Tedae nangmih te khoe a ngaih uh daengah amih te na thatlai thil uh mako.
18But be zealous for that which is good in a good thing always: and not only when I am present with you.
18Tedae a then la thatlai ham tah then yoeyah ngawn. Te dongah nangmih taengkah ka om rhuet bueng moenih.
19My little children, of whom I am in labour again, until Christ be formed in you.
19Ka ca rhoek nangmih ah Khrih a kap duela u ham nim ka bung a tloh bal.
20And I would willingly be present with you now, and change my voice: because I am ashamed for you.
20Te dongah nangmih taengah om laeh ka ngaih coeng. Ka ol te thovael ham khaw nangmih soah ka ingang coeng.
21Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, have you not read the law?
21Kai taengah thui uh lah . Olkhueng hmuiah om ham aka ngaih rhoek, olkhueng te na ya uh mahnim?
22For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, and the other by a free woman.
22Abraham loh capa panit a khueh te a daek coeng ta. Pakhat te salnu kah tih pakhat te aka loeih nu kah ta.
23But he who was of the bondwoman, was born according to the flesh: but he of the free woman, was by promise.
23Tedae salnu kah te tah pumsa la a cun. Aka loeih nu kah te tah olkhueh lamloh a cun.
24Which things are said by an allegory. For these are the two testaments. The one from mount Sina, engendering unto bondage; which is Agar:
24Amih rhoi loh a tueng sak te om. Amih rhoi tah paipi panit la om. Pakhat tah Sinai tlang lamkah tih sal la a cun. Anih tah Hagar ni.
25For Sina is a mountain in Arabia, which hath affinity to that Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
25Hagar tah Arabia kah Sinai tlang coeng ni. Tahae kah Jerusalem banghui la, a ca rhoek taengah sal a bi.
26But that Jerusalem, which is above, is free: which is our mother.
26Tedae soben Jerusalem tah aka loeih ni. Anih tah mamih kah manu ni.
27For it is written: Rejoice, thou barren, that bearest not: break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for many are the children of the desolate, more than of her that hath a husband.
27A daek coeng te ta, Cakol la cacun mueh aw uum khungdaeng lamtah bung aka tlo pawt aw tamhoe lah. Va aka khueh lakah khosoek kah camoe tah taoe ping ta.
28Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
28Manuca rhoek nangmih ngawn tah Isaak bangla olkhueh kah ca rhoek la na om uh.
29But as then he, that was born according to the flesh, persecuted him that was after the spirit; so also it is now.
29Tedae pumsa la a cun loh mueihla la cun te a hnaemtak vanbangla tahae ah khaw om van tangloeng.
30But what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the free woman.
30Tedae cacim loh, “Salnu neh a capa te haek laeh. Salnu kah a capa te aka loeih nu kah capa taengah phaeng loengloeng boel saeh,” a ti te ta.
31So then, brethren, we are not the children of the bondwoman, but of the free: by the freedom wherewith Christ has made us free.
31Te dongah manuca rhoek salnu kah voel pawt tih aka loeih kah ca rhoek la n'om uh.
