"I beg you, brothers and sisters, become like me, because I have become like you. You have done me no wrong!"
— Galatians 4:12, NET Bible
“Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.”
“I beseech you, brethren, become as I am, for I also am become as ye are. Ye did me no wrong: ”
“I beg you, brothers, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong,”
“Be ye as I, because I also am as you brethren, I beseech you. You have not injured me at all.”
“My desire for you, brothers, is that you may be as I am, because I am as you are. You have done me no wrong;”
“Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.”
But now that you have come to know God(or rather to be known by God), how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless basic forces? Do you want to be enslaved to them all over again?
You are observing religious days and months and seasons and years.
I fear for you that my work for you may have been in vain.
I beg you, brothers and sisters, become like me, because I have become like you. You have done me no wrong!
Personal Appeal of Paul But you know it was because of a physical illness that I first proclaimed the gospel to you,
and though my physical condition put you to the test, you did not despise or reject me. Instead, you welcomed me as though I were an angel of God, as though I were Christ Jesus himself!
Where then is your sense of happiness now? For I testify about you that if it were possible, you would have pulled out your eyes and given them to me!
