who also did declare to us your love in the Spirit.

Giving thanks to the Father who did make us meet for the participation of the inheritance of the saints in the light,

who did rescue us out of the authority of the darkness, and did translate us into the reign of the Son of His love,

because in him it did please all the fulness to tabernacle,

And you -- once being alienated, and enemies in the mind, in the evil works, yet now did he reconcile,

of which I -- I did become a ministrant according to the dispensation of God, that was given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God,

to whom God did will to make known what is the riches of the glory of this secret among the nations -- which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory,

as, then, ye did receive Christ Jesus the Lord, in him walk ye,

being buried with him in the baptism, in which also ye rose with him through the faith of the working of God, who did raise him out of the dead.

If, then, ye did die with the Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances?

for ye did die, and your life hath been hid with the Christ in God;

in which also ye -- ye did walk once, when ye lived in them;

and having put on the new, which is renewed in regard to knowledge, after the image of Him who did create him;

forbearing one another, and forgiving each other, if any one with any one may have a quarrel, as also the Christ did forgive you -- so also ye;

and he who is doing unrighteously shall receive what he did unrighteously, and there is no acceptance of persons.

whom I did send unto you for this very thing, that he might know the things concerning you, and might comfort your hearts,

Salute you doth Aristarchus, my fellow-captive, and Marcus, the nephew of Barnabas, (concerning whom ye did receive commands -- if he may come unto you receive him,)

and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision: these only are fellow-workers for the reign of God who did become a comfort to me.
