29 At that time the son born according to the flesh persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same now.

29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.

29 But you are now being persecuted by those who want you to keep the law, just as Ishmael, the child born by human effort, persecuted Isaac, the child born by the power of the Spirit.

29 But, as he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, even so it is now.

29 The son who was born in the normal way treated the other son badly. It is the same today.

29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, so also it is now.

29 But as then he that was born according to flesh persecuted him that was born according to Spirit, so also it is now.

29 Furthermore, at that time the son who was conceived in a natural way persecuted the son conceived in a spiritual way. That’s exactly what’s happening now.

29 But just as then the child born according to the flesh persecuted the one born according to the Spirit, so also now.

29 But just as at that time the child who was born according to the flesh persecuted the child who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now also.

29 But just as at that time the child born according to human descent persecuted the child born according to the Spirit, so also now.

29 At that time, the son born in the usual way tried to hurt the son born by the power of the Holy Spirit. It is the same now.

29 But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now also.
