¹⁰ now, therefore, why do ye tempt God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

⁴ for they bind together burdens heavy and grievous to be borne, and lay upon the shoulders of men, but with their finger they will not move them.

¹ In the freedom, then, with which Christ did make you free -- stand ye, and be not held fast again by a yoke of servitude;

¹² And Ahaz saith, `I do not ask nor try Jehovah.'

⁹ which `is' a simile in regard to the present time, in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, which are not able, in regard to conscience, to make perfect him who is serving,

⁹ in which tempt Me did your fathers, they did prove Me, and saw My works forty years;

⁹ and now, having known God -- and rather being known by God -- how turn ye again unto the weak and poor elements to which anew ye desire to be in servitude?

¹ And I say, so long time as the heir is a babe, he differeth nothing from a servant -- being lord of all,

² but is under tutors and stewards till the time appointed of the father,

³ so also we, when we were babes, under the elements of the world were in servitude,

⁴ and when the fulness of time did come, God sent forth His Son, come of a woman, come under law,

⁵ that those under law he may redeem, that the adoption of sons we may receive;

²⁸ `Come unto me, all ye labouring and burdened ones, and I will give you rest,

²⁹ take up my yoke upon you, and learn from me, because I am meek and humble in heart, and ye shall find rest to your souls,

³⁰ for my yoke `is' easy, and my burden is light.'

⁷ Jesus said to him again, `It hath been written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.'

² and the people strive with Moses, and say, `Give us water, and we drink.' And Moses saith to them, `What? -- ye strive with me, what? -- ye try Jehovah?'
