Galatians 4:25-27
New International Reader's Version

25 Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia. She stands for the present city of Jerusalem. That’s because she and her children are slaves. 26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free. She is our mother. 27 It is written,

“Be glad, woman,
    you who have never had children.
Shout for joy and cry out loud,
    you who have never had labor pains.
The woman who is all alone has more children
    than the woman who has a husband.” (Isaiah 54:1)

Galatians 4:25-27
New International Version

25 Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children. 26 But the Jerusalem that is above(A) is free, and she is our mother. 27 For it is written:

“Be glad, barren woman,
    you who never bore a child;
shout for joy and cry aloud,
    you who were never in labor;
because more are the children of the desolate woman
    than of her who has a husband.”[a](B)
