For these wemen are the two Testamentes: The one from the mount Sina, that gendreth vnto bondage, which is Agar. 25 For Agar is called in Arabia ye mount Sina, and reacheth vnto Ierusalem which now is, and is in bondage with hir children. 26 But Ierusalem that is aboue, is the fre woman, which is the mother of vs all. 27 For it is wrytte: Reioyse thou baren, that bearest no childre: breake forth and crye thou yt trauaylest not, for the desolate hath many mo childre, then she which hath an hussbande. 28 As for vs (brethren) we are the children of Isaac acordinge to the promes. 29 But like as at that tyme, he that was borne after the flesh, persecuted him yt was borne after the sprete, euen so is it now also. 30 But what sayeth the scripture?
