NASB
"They eagerly seek you, not commendably, but they wish to shut you out so that you will seek them."
— Galatians 4:17, NASB
“They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.”
“They zealously seek you in no good way; nay, they desire to shut you out, that ye may seek them. ”
“They zealously seek you in no good way. No, they desire to alienate you, that you may seek them.”
“They court you eagerly, but for no good purpose; they want to exclude you, so that you would seek them eagerly.”
“They are zealous in your regard not well: but they would exclude you, that you might be zealous for them.”
“Their interest in you is not good; but their desire is that you may be shut out, so that you may go after them.”
“They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.”
and that which was a trial to you in my bodily condition you did not despise or loathe, but you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus Himself.
Where then is that sense of blessing you had? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.
So have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?
They eagerly seek you, not commendably, but they wish to shut you out so that you will seek them.
But it is good always to be eagerly sought in a commendable manner, and not only when I am present with you.
My children, with whom I am again in labor until Christ is formed in you--
but I could wish to be present with you now and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
