当时，那按着血气生的，逼迫了那按着圣灵生的，现在也是这样。

当时，那按着肉体生的迫害了那按着圣灵生的，现在也是这样。

当时，那按着肉体生的迫害了那按着圣灵生的，现在也是这样。

当时，那按着人的意愿生的儿子迫害那靠着圣灵生的儿子，现在的情况也和当时一样。

不过，当时那按着肉体生的，迫害那按着圣灵生的，现在也是这样。

但正如那由肉体生的当时逼迫了那由圣灵生的，现在也是这样。

當時，那按着血氣生的逼迫了那按着聖靈生的，現在也是這樣。

不過，當時那按著肉體生的，迫害那按著聖靈生的，現在也是這樣。

但當時那只按普通程序生的怎樣逼迫那按靈生的，如今也這樣。

但正如那由肉體生的當時逼迫了那由聖靈生的，現在也是這樣。

昔依形軀而生者、窘逐依聖神而生者、今亦如是、

昔循人道而生者、窘逐依神道而生者、今亦如是、

夫血氣之兒女、必仇視聖神之兒女、古今一體。

At that time the son born according to the flesh persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same now.

At that time, the son born in the usual way tried to hurt the other son. The other son was born by the power of the Holy Spirit. It is the same now.

But just as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.

But you are now being persecuted by those who want you to keep the law, just as Ishmael, the child born by human effort, persecuted Isaac, the child born by the power of the Spirit.

But just as then the child born as a result of the flesh persecuted the one born as a result of the Spirit, so also now.

But as at that time the son who was born according to the flesh persecuted the one who was born according to the Spirit, so it is even now.

But, as he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, even so it is now.

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

But just as then the child born according to the flesh persecuted the one born according to the Spirit, so also now.

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

But just as at that time the one born by natural descent persecuted the one born according to the Spirit, so it is now.

But as then, he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.

伊及婦夏甲從亞伯拉罕所生之子嬉笑、撒拉見之、

兄弟乎、若我仍傳割禮、何至尚受窘逐乎、若傳割禮、則十字架之道、不被人厭棄矣、

爾曹若從肉體而行、必死、若以聖神而滅身之邪行、必生、

是以我遣先知智人經士就爾、其中有爾所殺及釘十字架者、有爾所鞭於爾之會堂、由此邑窘逐至彼邑者、致地上流義人之血、皆歸於爾、即自義人亞伯之血、至爾所殺於殿及祭臺間巴拉迦子撒迦利亞之血也、我誠告爾、此事皆必歸於斯代、耶路撒冷乎、耶路撒冷乎、爾殺先知、石擊奉遣就爾者、我屢欲集爾赤子、似母鷄集雛於翼下、惟爾不欲、

如父愛我、我亦愛爾、爾當居於我之愛、

耶穌曰、我誠告爾、人非由水及聖神而生、不能進天主之國、

兄弟乎、爾曹曾效在猶太信基督耶穌之天主諸教會、蓋爾曹受苦於同族、如彼受苦於猶太人然、猶太人殺主耶穌、及己之先知、又窘逐我儕、彼不為天主所悅、且與眾人為敵、

或受毀謗、遭患難、如在戲場受辱者為眾所觀、或有人受如此之苦、亦與之同苦、蓋我在縲絏之中、爾體恤我、或作蓋人在縲絏爾體恤之人奪爾業、爾忍之而喜、自知在天有愈美恆在之業、

其由婢生者、循血氣而生、其由自主之婦生者、因應許而生、

是故凡屬基督耶穌、不從肉體而從聖神者、有原文抄本無不從肉體而從聖神句不定罪、

欲以外貌儀文自榮者、強爾受割禮、特恐為基督之十字架、被人窘逐也、彼受割禮、而不守律法、欲爾守割禮、致彼因爾之外貌儀文、有所可誇、但我所誇者無他、惟誇我主耶穌基督之十字架、我賴之、世向我已釘十字架、我向世亦然、
