Galatians 4:15-20

English Standard Version

¹⁵ What then has become of your blessedness? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have gouged out your eyes and given them to me. ¹⁶ Have I then become your enemy by ^(A)telling you the truth?^{[a] 17} They make much of you, but for no good purpose. They want to shut you out, that you may make much of them. ¹⁸ It is always good to be made much of for a good purpose, and ^(B)not only when I am present with you, ^19 (C)my little children, ^(D)for whom I am again in the anguish of childbirth until Christ ^(E)is formed in you! ²⁰ I wish I could be present with you now and change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
