Galatians 4:17


← Galatians 4:16 Galatians 4:17 (KJV) Galatians 4:18 →
Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.
But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
