Galatians 4:22-25
New American Standard Bible
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, (A)one by the slave woman and (B)one by the free woman. 23 But (C)the son by the slave woman [a]was born according to the flesh, and (D)the son by the free woman through the promise. 24 [b](E)This is speaking allegorically, for these women are two covenants: one coming from (F)Mount Sinai giving birth to children [c]who are to be (G)slaves; [d]she is Hagar. 25 Now this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is enslaved with her children.

New American Standard Bible
30 But what does the Scripture say?
“(A)Drive out the slave woman and her son,
For (B)the son of the slave woman shall not be an heir with the son of the free woman.”
31 So then, brothers and sisters, we are not children of a slave woman, but of the free woman.
