Galatians 4:17

These men [the Judaizers] eagerly seek you [to entrap you with honeyed words and attention, to win you over to their philosophy], not honorably [for their purpose is not honorable or worthy of consideration]. They want to isolate you [from us who oppose them] so that you will seek them.

They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.

Those heretical teachers go to great lengths to flatter you, but their motives are rotten. They want to shut you out of the free world of God’s grace so that you will always depend on them for approval and direction, making them feel important. 18-20 It is a good thing to be ardent in doing good, but not just when I am in your presence. Can’t you continue the same concern for both my person and my message when I am away from you that you had when I was with you? Do you know how I feel right now, and will feel until Christ’s life becomes visible in your lives? Like a mother in the pain of childbirth. Oh, I keep wishing that I was with you. Then I wouldn’t be reduced to this blunt, letter-writing language out of sheer frustration. 21-31 Tell me now, you who have become so enamored with the law: Have you paid close attention to that law? Abraham, remember, had two sons: one by the slave woman and one by the free woman. The son of the slave woman was born by human connivance; the son of the free woman was born by God’s promise. This illustrates the very thing we are dealing with now. The two births represent two ways of being in relationship with God. One is from Mount Sinai in Arabia. It corresponds with what is now going on in Jerusalem—a slave life, producing slaves as offspring. This is the way of Hagar. In contrast to that, there is an invisible Jerusalem, a free Jerusalem, and she is our mother—this is the way of Sarah. Remember what Isaiah wrote:Rejoice, barren woman who bears no children, shout and cry out, woman who has no birth pangs,Because the children of the barren woman now surpass the children of the chosen woman.Isn’t it clear, friends, that you, like Isaac, are children of promise? In the days of Hagar and Sarah, the child who came from faithless connivance (Ishmael) harassed the child who came—empowered by the Spirit—from the faithful promise (Isaac). Isn’t it clear that the harassment you are now experiencing from the Jerusalem heretics follows that old pattern? There is a Scripture that tells us what to do: “Expel the slave mother with her son, for the slave son will not inherit with the free son.” Isn’t that conclusive? We are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.

They eagerly seek you, not commendably, but they wish to shut you out so that you will seek them.

Creedme, esos que tanto parecen desear vuestra amistad no llevan buenas intenciones. Lo que intentan es apartaros de mí para que toda la atención se la prestéis a ellos.

Those people are trying hard to win you over. But it is not for your good. They want to take you away from us. They want you to commit yourselves to them.

Those people are zealous to win you over, but for no good. What they want is to alienate you from us, so that you may have zeal for them.

Those false teachers are so eager to win your favor, but their intentions are not good. They are trying to shut you off from me so that you will pay attention only to them.

إِنَّ أُولئِكَ (الْمُعَلِّمِينَ) يُظْهِرُونَ مِنْ نَحْوِكُمْ حَمَاسَةً، وَلَكِنَّهَا غَيْرُ صَادِقَةٍ، بَلْ هُمْ يَرْغَبُونَ فِي عَزْلِكُمْ عَنَّا،

May mga tawo diha nga nagapakita nga sila nabalaka kaninyo, apan dili maayo ang ilang katuyoan. Gusto lang nila nga mabugnaw kamo kanako aron sila ang inyong dapigan.

Ti falešní učitelé, kteří se tak horlivě ucházejí o vaši přízeň, nemyslí to s vámi dobře; chtějí nás rozdělit a strhnout vás na svou stranu.

De mennesker, som ønsker, at I skal følge de jødiske lovregler, gør alt, for at I skal komme over på deres side. De tænker ikke på, hvad der er bedst for jer, men kun på at trække jer væk fra os, så I kan blive lige så ivrige efter at følge reglerne, som de selv er.

Diese Leute, die euch zurzeit so umschmeicheln, meinen es nicht ehrlich mit euch. Sie wollen nur erreichen, dass ihr euch von mir abwendet und ihnen nacheifert.

Esos que muestran mucho interés por ganaros a vosotros no abrigan buenas intenciones. Lo que quieren es alejaros de nosotros para que vosotros os entreguéis a ellos.

Croyez-moi, ces gens-là[h] déploient un grand zèle autour de vous, mais leurs intentions ne sont pas bonnes : ils veulent vous détacher de moi pour que vous soyez zélés pour eux.

האנשים האלה שמשתדלים מאוד למצוא-חן בעיניכם, אינם עושים זאת מתוך רצון בטובתכם, אלא מתוך רצון לסכסך ולהפריד ביניכם לביני, כדי שלא תקשיבו לי, אלא תקשיבו להם בלבד.

May mga tawo dira nga nagapakita nga sila nagakabalaka sa inyo, pero indi maayo ang ila katuyuan. Gusto lang nila nga palas-ayon kamo sa akon agod sila amo ang inyo dampigan.

Ti lažni učitelji, koji se toliko trude da steknu vašu naklonost, ne čine to za vaše dobro. žele vas odvratiti od mene da biste svoju gorljivost stavili u njihovu službu.

Quei falsi maestri che ci tengono tanto a guadagnarsi le vostre simpatie, non lo fanno per il vostro bene. Vogliono staccarvi da me, perché prestiate più attenzione a loro.

一生懸命あなたがたに取り入っている偽教師たちは、ほんとうに、あなたがたのためを思っているのではありません。ただ、もっと自分たちの取り巻きをふやすために、私たちから人々を引き離そうとしているだけです。

거짓 선생들이 여러분을 열심히 설득하고 있는 것은 좋은 생각에서가 아니라 여러분이 우리를 버리고 자기들을 따르도록 하기 위한 것입니다.

Disse personene som sprer falske budskap, gjør det ikke for at dere skal ha det godt. De forsøker bare å få dere bort fra meg, slik at dere skal bli deres tilhengere i stedet.

De valse leraren, die zo graag bij u in de gunst willen komen, doen dat niet voor uw bestwil. Nee, zij proberen een wig tussen u en ons te drijven om u helemaal voor zichzelf te hebben.

Ci, którzy narzucają wam zbędne przykazania, starają się zdobyć waszą przychylność, ale nie czynią tego dla waszego dobra! Usiłują bowiem oderwać was ode mnie i pociągnąć za sobą.

Os que fazem tanto esforço para agradá-los não agem bem, mas querem isolá-los a fim de que vocês também mostrem zelo por eles.

Podem ter a certeza que essa gente que anda a fazer tudo para ganhar a vossa simpatia não está a agir para o vosso bem. No fundo, o que pretendem é fazer com que se afastem de mim e que o vosso zelo se concentre neles enquanto pessoas.

Ei sunt plini de râvnă faţă de voi, dar nu spre bine, ci ei vor să vă despartă de noi, ca să fiţi plini de râvnă pentru ei.

Я знаю, что эти люди ревниво стараются перетянуть вас на свою сторону, но к добру это не приведёт. Они лишь хотят оторвать вас от нас, чтобы вы стали их ревностными приверженцами.

Falošní učitelia, ktorí sa tak horlivo uchádzajú o vašu priazeň, to s vami nemyslia dobre. Chcú nás rozdeliť, získať vás pre seba.

Dessa människor som är så hängivna för er skull handlar inte för ert bästa. De försöker bara få er bort från mig, så att ni ska bli hängivna dem istället.

Hao watu wanaoshughulika ili muwe upande wao nia yao si nzuri. Wanataka kuwatenganisha na sisi ili muwajali wao zaidi.

คนพวกนั้นร้อนรนเพื่อชนะใจท่าน แต่ไม่ใช่เพราะหวังดี สิ่งที่เขาต้องการคือแยกท่านออกไปจากเรา เพื่อให้ท่านร้อนรนเพื่อพวกเขา
