Galatians 4:18 in context

  1. 16So then, have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?
  2. 17They zealously seek you in no good way. No, they desire to alienate you, that you may seek them.
  3. 18But it is always good to be zealous in a good cause, and not only when I am present with you.
  4. 19My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ is formed in you—
  5. 20but I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
