ABU(i)
9 But now, after having known God, or rather having been known by God, how is it that ye turn back again to the weak and poor elements, to which ye desire to be in bondage again anew?
10 Do ye carefully observe days, and months, and seasons, and years?
11 I am afraid of you, lest by any means I have bestowed labor upon you in vain.
12 Become as I am, for I also became as ye are, brethren, I beseech you. Ye injured me in nothing.
13 Nay, ye know that by reason of weakness of the flesh I preached the glad tidings to you the former time;
14 and my trial, which was in my flesh, ye despised not nor spurned, but received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.
15 Where is then the happiness of which ye spoke? For I bear you witness, that if possible, ye would have plucked out your eyes, and given them to me.
