RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 And I say, now as much time as the heir is a child, he differs nothing from a servant, [though] being lord of all,
1 TAMBIÉN digo: Entre tanto que el heredero es niño, en nada difiere del siervo, aunque es señor de todo;
1 But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a bondservant, though he is lord of all,
2 but is under tutors and stewards until the time appointed of the father,
2 Mas está debajo de tutores y curadores hasta el tiempo señalado por el padre.
2 but is under guardians and stewards until the day appointed by the father.
3 so we also, when we were children, were in servitude under the elements of the world,
3 Así también nosotros, cuando éramos niños, éramos siervos bajo los rudimentos del mundo.
3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental principles of the world.
4 and when the fullness of time came, God sent forth His Son, come of a woman, come under law,
4 Mas venido el cumplimiento del tiempo, Dios envió su Hijo, hecho de mujer, hecho súbdito á la ley,
4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law,
5 that He may redeem those under law, that we may receive the adoption as sons;
5 Para que redimiese á los que estaban debajo de la ley, á fin de que recibiésemos la adopción de hijos.
5 that he might redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as children.
6 and because you are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!”
6 Y por cuanto sois hijos, Dios envió el Espíritu de su Hijo en vuestros corazones, el cual clama: Abba, Padre.
6 And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba, Father!”
7 So that you are no longer a servant, but a son, and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ.
7 Así que ya no eres más siervo, sino hijo; y si hijo, también heredero de Dios por Cristo.
7 So you are no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
8 But then, indeed, having not known God, you were in servitude to those [that are] not by nature gods,
8 Antes, en otro tiempo, no conociendo á Dios, servíais á los que por naturaleza no son dioses:
8 However at that time, not knowing God, you were in bondage to those who by nature are not gods.
9 and now, having known God—and rather being known by God—how [do] you turn again to the weak and poor elements to which you desire anew to be in servitude?
9 Mas ahora, habiendo conocido á Dios, ó más bien, siendo conocidos de Dios, ¿cómo os volvéis de nuevo á los flacos y pobres rudimentos, en los cuales queréis volver á servir?
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 in bondage all over again?
10 You observe days, and months, and times, and years!
10 Guardáis los días, y los meses, y los tiempos, y los años.
10 You observe days, months, seasons, and years.
11 I am afraid for you, lest I labored in vain for you.
11 Temo de vosotros, que no haya trabajado en vano en vosotros.
11 I am afraid for you, that I might have wasted my labor for you.
12 I implore you, brothers, become as I [am]—because I also [am] as you; you did not hurt me;
12 Hermanos, os ruego, sed como yo, porque yo soy como vosotros: ningún agravio me habéis hecho.
12 I beg you, brothers, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong,
13 and you have known that through weakness of the flesh I proclaimed good news to you at the first,
13 Que vosotros sabéis que por flaqueza de carne os anuncié el evangelio al principio:
13 but you know that because of weakness in the flesh I preached the Good News to you the first time.
14 and you did not despise nor reject my trial that [is] in my flesh, but you received me as a messenger of God—as Christ Jesus;
14 Y no desechasteis ni menospreciasteis mi tentación que [estaba] en mi carne: antes me recibisteis como á un ángel de Dios, como á Cristo Jesús.
14 That which was a temptation to you in my flesh, you didn’t despise nor reject; but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
15 what then was your blessedness? For I testify to you, that if possible, having plucked out your eyes, you would have given [them] to me;
15 ¿Dónde está pues vuestra bienaventuranza? porque yo os doy testimonio que si se pudiera [hacer], os hubierais sacado vuestros ojos para dármelos.
15 What 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.
16 so have I become your enemy, being true to you?
16 ¿Heme pues hecho vuestro enemigo, diciéndoos la verdad?
16 So then, have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?
17 They are zealous for you—[yet] not well, but they wish to shut us out, that you may be zealous for them;
17 Tienen celos de vosotros, [pero] no bien: antes os quieren echar fuera para que vosotros los celéis á ellos.
17 They zealously seek you in no good way. No, they desire to alienate you, that you may seek them.
18 and [it is] good to be zealously regarded, in what is good, at all times, and not only in my being present with you;
18 Bueno es ser celosos en bien siempre; y no solamente cuando estoy presente con vosotros.
18 But it is always good to be zealous in a good cause, and not only when I am present with you.
19 my little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ may be formed in you,
19 Hijitos míos, que vuelvo otra vez á estar de parto de vosotros, hasta que Cristo sea formado en vosotros;
19 My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ is formed in you—
20 indeed I was wishing to be present with you now, and to change my voice, because I am in doubt about you.
20 Querría cierto estar ahora con vosotros, y mudar mi voz; porque estoy perplejo en cuanto á vosotros.
20 but I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
21 Tell me, you who are willing to be under law, do you not hear the Law?
21 Decidme, los que queréis estar debajo de la ley, ¿no habéis oído la ley?
21 Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, don’t you listen to the law?
22 For it has been written that Abraham had two sons, one by the maidservant and one by the free [woman],
22 Porque escrito está que Abraham tuvo dos hijos; uno de la sierva, el otro de la libre.
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the servant, and one by the free woman.
23 but he who [is] of the maidservant has been according to flesh, but he who [is] of the free [woman], through the promise,
23 Mas el de la sierva nació según la carne; pero el de la libre [nació] por la promesa.
23 However, the son by the servant was born according to the flesh, but the son by the free woman was born through promise.
24 which things are allegorized, for these are the two covenants: one, indeed, from Mount Sinai, bringing forth to servitude, which is Hagar;
24 Las cuales cosas son dichas por alegoría: porque estas [mujeres] son los dos pactos; el uno ciertamente del monte Sinaí, el cual engendró para servidumbre, que es Agar.
24 These things contain an allegory, for these are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children to bondage, which is Hagar.
25 for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to the Jerusalem that now [is], and is in servitude with her children,
25 Porque Agar ó Sinaí es un monte de Arabia, el cual es conjunto á la que ahora es Jerusalem, la cual sirve con sus hijos.
25 For this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to the Jerusalem that exists now, for she is in bondage with her children.
26 and the Jerusalem above is the free [woman], which is mother of us all,
26 Mas la Jerusalem de arriba libre es; la cual es la madre de todos nosotros.
26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
27 for it has been written: “Rejoice, O barren, who is not bearing; break forth and cry, you who are not travailing, because many [are] the children of the desolate—more than of her having the husband.”
27 Porque está escrito: Alégrate, estéril, que no pares: prorrumpe y clama, la que no estás de parto; porque más son los hijos de la dejada, que de la que tiene marido.
27 For it is written, “Rejoice, you barren who don’t bear. Break out and shout, you who don’t travail. For the desolate women have more children than her who has a husband.”
28 And we, brothers, as Isaac, are children of promise,
28 Así que, hermanos, nosotros como Isaac somos hijos de la promesa.
28 Now we, brothers, as Isaac was, are children of promise.
29 but as he then who was born according to the flesh persecuted him [born] according to the Spirit, so also now;
29 Empero como entonces el que era engendrado según la carne, perseguía al que [había nacido] según el Espíritu, así también ahora.
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.
30 but what does the Writing say? “Cast forth the maidservant and her son, for the son of the maidservant may not be heir with the son of the free [woman]”;
30 Mas ¿qué dice la Escritura? Echa fuera á la sierva y á su hijo; porque no será heredero el hijo de la sierva con el hijo de la libre.
30 However, what does the Scripture say? “Throw out the servant and her son, for the son of the servant will not inherit with the son of the free woman.”
31 then, brothers, we are not a maidservant’s children, but the free [woman’s].
31 De manera, hermanos, que no somos hijos de la sierva, mas de la libre.
31 So then, brothers, we are not children of a servant, but of the free woman.

Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
… in what sense [God] says, "That is a people who was not a people; and she is beloved who was not beloved;" and in what sense He says that "more are the children of her that was desolate, than of her who possessed a husband." For in reference to these points, and others of a like nature, the apostle exclaims: …
For she had "been the wife of one man," had requited her parents, had guided her house piously, was "well-reported of for good works," had "brought up children," as often travailing in birth of them as she saw them swerving from Thee.
