Galatians 4:16-21 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

16. Am I now your enemy because I tell you the truth?

17. Those people are working hard to persuade you, but this is not good for you. They want to persuade you to turn against us and work hard for them.

18. It is good for you to work hard, of course, if it is for something good. That’s something you should do whether I am there or not.

19. My little children, I am in pain again over you, like a mother giving birth. I will feel this pain until people can look at you and see Christ.

20. I wish I could be with you now. Then maybe I could change the way I am talking to you. Now I don’t know what to do about you.

21. Some of you people want to be under the law. Tell me, do you know what the law says?
