Summary

Richard Francis Weymouth Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech…

Let your lives be guided by the Spirit, and then you will certainly not indulge the cravings of your lower natures.
005:017 For the cravings of the lower nature are opposed to those of the Spirit, and the cravings of the Spirit are opposed to those of the lower nature; because these are antagonistic to each other, so that you cannot do everything to which you are inclined.
005:018 But if the Spirit is leading you, you are not subject to Law.

Richard Francis Weymouth Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech…

For the desolate woman has many children— more indeed than she who has the husband."
004:028 But you, brethren, like Isaac, are children born in fulfilment of a promise.
004:029 Yet just as, at that time, the child born in the common course
of nature persecuted the one whose birth was due to the power
of the Spirit, so it is now.
004:030 But what says the Scripture? "Send away the slave-girl and her son,
for never shall the slave-girl's son share the inheritance
with the son of the free woman."
