Galatians 4:18
To be zealously sought in a good matter (zhlousqai en kalw). Present passive infinitive. It is only in an evil matter that it is bad as here (ou kalov).
When I am present (en tw pareinai me). "In the being present as to me."
16 Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?
17 They azealously court you, but for no good; yes, they want to exclude you, that you may be zealous for them.
18 But it is good to be zealous in a good thing always, and not only when I am present with you.
19 aMy little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you,
20 I would like to be present with you now and to change my tone; for I have doubts about you.
