< Galatians 4 >
1 But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, though he is lord of all;
aha. m vadaami sampadadhikaarii yaavad baalasti. s.thati taavat sarvvasvasyaadhipati. h sannapi sa daasaat kenaapi vi. saye. na na vi"si. syate
2 but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed by the father.
kintu pitraa niruupita. m samaya. m yaavat paalakaanaa. m dhanaadhyak. saa. naa nca nighnasti. s.thati|
3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental principles of the world.
tadvad vayamapi baalyakaale daasaa iva sa. msaarasyaak. saramaalaayaa adhiinaa aasmahe|
4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law,
anantara. m samaye sampuur. nataa. m gatavati vyavasthaadhiinaanaa. m mocanaartham
5 that he might redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive the adoption as sons.
asmaaka. m putratvapraaptyartha nce"svara. h striyaa jaata. m vyavasthaayaa adhiniibhuuta nca svaputra. m pre. sitavaan|
6 And because you are sons, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba, Father."
yuuya. m santaanaa abhavata tatkaara. naad ii"svara. h svaputrasyaatmaanaa. m yu. smaakam anta. hkara. naani prahitavaan sa caatmaa pita. h pitarityaahvaana. m kaarayati|
7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God.
ata idaanii. m yuuya. m na daasaa. h kintu. h santaanaa eva tasmaat santaanatvaacca khrii. s.tene"svariiyasampadadhikaari. no. apyaadhve|
8 However at that time, not knowing God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.
apara nca puurvva. m yuuyam ii"svara. m na j naatvaa ye svabhaavato. anii"svaraaste. saa. m daasatve. ati. s.thata|
9 But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, why do you turn back again to the weak and miserable elemental principles, to which you desire to be enslaved all over again?
idaaniim ii"svara. m j naatvaa yadi ve"svare. na j naataa yuuya. m katha. m punastaani viphalaani tucchaani caak. saraa. ni prati paraavarttitu. m "saknutha? yuuya. m ki. m punaste. saa. m daasaa bhavitumicchatha?
10 You observe days, months, seasons, and years.
yuuya. m divasaan maasaan tithiin sa. mvatsaraa. m"sca sammanyadhve|
11 I am afraid for you, that I might have wasted my labor for you.
yu. smadartha. m mayaa ya. h pari"sramo. akaari sa viphalo jaata iti yu. smaanadhyaha. m bibhemi|
12 I beg you, brothers, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong,
he bhraatara. h, aha. m yaad. r"so. asmi yuuyamapi taad. r"saa bhavateti praarthaye yato. ahamapi yu. smattulyo. abhava. m yu. smaabhi rmama kimapi naaparaaddha. m|
13 but you know that in physical weakness I preached the Good News to you the first time;
puurvvamaha. m kalevarasya daurbbalyena yu. smaan susa. mvaadam aj naapayamiti yuuya. m jaaniitha|
14 and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not despise nor reject; but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.

15 Where was the blessing you enjoyed? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.
atastadaanii. m yu. smaaka. m yaa dhanyataabhavat saa kka gataa? tadaanii. m yuuya. m yadi sve. saa. m nayanaanyutpaa. tya mahya. m daatum a"sak. syata tarhi tadapyakari. syateti pramaa. nam aha. m dadaami|
16 So then, have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?
saampratamaha. m satyavaaditvaat ki. m yu. smaaka. m ripu rjaato. asmi?
17 They zealously seek you, but for no good purpose; they desire to alienate you, that you may be zealous for them.
te yu. smatk. rte sparddhante kintu saa sparddhaa kutsitaa yato yuuya. m taanadhi yat sparddhadhva. m tadartha. m te yu. smaan p. rthak karttum icchanti|
18 But it is always good to be zealous in a good cause, and not only when I am present with you.
kevala. m yu. smatsamiipe mamopasthitisamaye tannahi, kintu sarvvadaiva bhadramadhi sparddhana. m bhadra. m|
19 My children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ is formed in you—
he mama baalakaa. h, yu. smadanta ryaavat khrii. s.to muurtimaan na bhavati taavad yu. smatkaara. naat puna. h prasavavedaneva mama vedanaa jaayate|
20 but I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
ahamidaanii. m yu. smaaka. m sannidhi. m gatvaa svaraantare. na yu. smaan sambhaa. situ. m kaamaye yato yu. smaanadhi vyaakulo. asmi|
21 Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, do you not listen to the law?
he vyavasthaadhiinataakaa"nk. si. na. h yuuya. m ki. m vyavasthaayaa vacana. m na g. rhliitha?
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman, and one by the free woman.
tanmaa. m vadata| likhitamaaste, ibraahiimo dvau putraavaasaate tayoreko daasyaa. m dvitiiya"sca patnyaa. m jaata. h|
23 However, the son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but the son by the free woman was born through promise.
tayo ryo daasyaa. m jaata. h sa "saariirikaniyamena jaj ne ya"sca patnyaa. m jaata. h sa pratij nayaa jaj ne|
24 These things contain an allegory, for these are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children to slavery, which is Hagar.
idamaakhyaana. m d. r.s. tantasvaruupa. m| te dve yo. sitaavii"svariiyasandhii tayorekaa siinayaparvvataad utpannaa daasajanayitrii ca saa tu haajiraa|
25 For this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and represents Jerusalem that exists now, for she is in slavery with her children.
yasmaad haajiraa"sabdenaaravade"sasthasiinayaparvvato bodhyate, saa ca varttamaanaayaa yiruu"saalampuryyaa. h sad. r"sii| yata. h svabaalai. h sahitaa saa daasatva aaste|
26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.
kintu svargiiyaa yiruu"saalampurii patnii sarvve. saam asmaaka. m maataa caaste|
27 For it is written, "Rejoice, you barren who do not bear. Break forth and shout, you that do not travail. For more are the children of the desolate than of her who has a husband."
yaad. r"sa. m likhitam aaste, "vandhye santaanahiine tva. m svara. m jayajaya. m kuru| aprasuute tvayollaaso jayaa"sabda"sca giiyataa. m| yata eva sanaathaayaa yo. sita. h santate rga. naat| anaathaa yaa bhavennaarii tadapatyaani bhuuri"sa. h||"
28 Now you, brothers, as Isaac was, are children of promise.
he bhraat. rga. na, imhaak iva vaya. m pratij nayaa jaataa. h santaanaa. h|
29 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.
kintu tadaanii. m "saariirikaniyamena jaata. h putro yadvad aatmikaniyamena jaata. m putram upaadravat tathaadhunaapi|
30 However what does the Scripture say? "Cast out the slave woman and her son, for the son of the slave woman will not inherit with the son of the free woman."
kintu "saastre ki. m likhita. m? "tvam imaa. m daasii. m tasyaa. h putra ncaapasaaraya yata e. sa daasiiputra. h patniiputre. na sama. m nottaraadhikaarii bhaviyyatiiti|"
31 So then, brothers, we are not children of a handmaid, but of the free woman.
ataeva he bhraatara. h, vaya. m daasyaa. h santaanaa na bhuutvaa paatnyaa. h santaanaa bhavaama. h|
