Galatians 4:13

11 I fear for you, that my efforts for you may have been in vain.

12 I beg you, brothers, become like me, for I became like you. You have done me no wrong.

You know that it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you.

14 And although my illness was a trial to you, you did not despise or reject me. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus Himself.

15 What then has become of your blessing? For I can testify that, if it were possible, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me.

Her forteller Bibelen en historie om noen andre. Spør deg selv hva den kan si oss i dag. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
