夫血氣之兒女、必仇視聖神之兒女、古今一體。

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。

當時，那按着肉體生的迫害了那按着聖靈生的，現在也是這樣。

當時，那按着肉體生的迫害了那按着聖靈生的，現在也是這樣。

當時，那按著人的意願生的兒子迫害那靠著聖靈生的兒子，現在的情況也和當時一樣。

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、

昔循血氣而生者、窘逐循神而生者、今亦如是、

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.

兄弟乎、苟我今猶鼓吹割禮、則何為尚受排擯耶？夫然則十字架亦不當復被視為眼中釘矣。

爾如從欲、取死之道也。存神去欲、得生之道也。

是故吾遣先知哲人經師於爾、爾或刃之釘之、或鞭之於會堂、逐之於諸邑、庶幾凡世上所流義血、自義者亞伯之血、以至殿臺間被殺者巴辣基子襍加理之血、皆歸於爾。吾誠告爾、凡此諸端、咸將歸責於斯代矣。耶路撒冷乎、嗟爾殘殺先知、石擊天主星使之耶路撒冷乎！吾之欲集爾子女、如牝雞之覆翼其雛者、不已頻乎？而爾終莫之許也。

吾以父之所以愛我者愛爾。爾其勉旃、恆保吾愛。

耶穌對曰：『我切實語爾、人非生於水及神者、無得入天主國。

兄弟乎、爾等實堪與猶太奉耶穌基督之諸教會、並駕齊驅。蓋爾等所遭受於爾國人之手者、與彼等所遭受於猶太人者、如出一轍也。斯輩猶太人既殘殺主耶穌基督及眾先知、又復逐我同人、實天主之逆子、而人類之公敵也。

不惟自身受垢蒙辱、若優伶之演劇、供眾一粲；即同道中有遭此垢辱者、爾等亦莫不痛苦身受。爾等不惟體恤囹圄中人、即自己產業之被劫奪、亦能逆來順受、且欣然自樂、固知另有盡善盡美、可大可久之嗣業在也。

然婢女之子、乃因肉情而生；而主婦之子、則憑恩諾而生。

凡心與耶穌基督相契合者、無所為罪；

人之欲以形體之事眩世、而強爾受割禮者、其惟一動機、乃欲避免為基督十字架而被擯於世耳。蓋若輩雖受割禮、自身亦何嘗遵守禮法。其所以欲爾同受割禮者、惟欲借爾之形體、為彼炫耀之資耳。吾則異於是、吾所誇者、惟在吾主耶穌基督之十字聖架而已。因此、世之與我已互釘於十字聖架之上、而恝然相遺矣。
