COL-1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and
Timotheus [our] brother,
COL-1:2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are
at COLosse: Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God our Father
and the Lord Jesus Christ.
COL-1:3 We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, praying always for you,
COL-1:4 Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the
love [which ye have] to all the saints,
COL-1:5 For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof
ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;
COL-1:6 Which is come unto you, as [it is] in all the world; and
bringeth forth fruit, as [it doth] also in you, since the day ye
heard [of it], and knew the grace of God in truth:
COL-1:7 As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant,
who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
COL-1:8 Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
COL-1:9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard [it], do
not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled
with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual
understanding;
COL-1:10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing,
being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the
knowledge of God;
COL-1:11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious
power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
COL-1:12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet
to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
COL-1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and
hath translated [us] into the kingdom of his dear Son:
COL-1:14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, [even]
the forgiveness of sins:
COL-1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of
every creature:
COL-1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven,
and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be]
thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things
were created by him, and for him:
COL-1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things
consist.
COL-1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the
beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all [things] he
might have the preeminence.
COL-1:19 For it pleased [the Father] that in him should all
fulness dwell;
COL-1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross,
by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say],
whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.
COL-1:21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in
[your] mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
COL-1:22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you
holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
COL-1:23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and
[be] not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have
heard, [and] which was preached to every creature which is under
heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
COL-1:24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up
that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh
for his body's sake, which is the church:
COL-1:25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the
dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the
word of God;
COL-1:26 [Even] the mystery which hath been hid from ages and
from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
COL-1:27 To whom God would make known what [is] the riches of
the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in
you, the hope of glory:
COL-1:28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every
man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in
Christ Jesus:
COL-1:29 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his
working, which worketh in me mightily.
COL-2:1 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for
you, and [for] them at Laodicea, and [for] as many as have not
seen my face in the flesh;
COL-2:2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit
together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of
understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and
of the Father, and of Christ;
COL-2:3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and
knowledge.
COL-2:4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with
enticing words.
COL-2:5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you
in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the
stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
COL-2:6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord,
[so] walk ye in him:
COL-2:7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith,
as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
COL-2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and
vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of
the world, and not after Christ.
COL-2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead
bodily.
COL-2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all
principality and power:
COL-2:11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision
made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the
flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
COL-2:12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen
with [him] through the faith of the operation of God, who hath
raised him from the dead.
COL-2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision
of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having
forgiven you all trespasses;
COL-2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was
against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way,
nailing it to his cross;
COL-2:15 [And] having spoiled principalities and powers, he made
a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
COL-2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or
in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath
[days]:
COL-2:17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body [is]
of Christ.
COL-2:18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary
humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things
which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
COL-2:19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by
joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit
together, increaseth with the increase of God.
COL-2:20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments
of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject
