for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and unto him;

and he is before all things, and in him all things consist.

For it was the good pleasure of the Father that in him should all the fulness dwell;

and through him to reconcile all things unto himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross; through him, I say , whether things upon the earth, or things in the heavens.

yet now hath he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and unreproveable before him:

As therefore ye received Christ Jesus the Lord,'so walk in him,

rooted and builded up in him, and established in your faith, even as ye were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.

for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily,

and in him ye are made full, who is the head of all principality and power:

having been buried with him in baptism, wherein ye were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

And you, being dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, you, I say , did he make alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses;

When Christ, who is our life, shall be manifested, then shall ye also with him be manifested in glory.

and have put on the new man, that is being renewed unto knowledge after the image of him that created him:

And whatsoever ye do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Aristarchus my fellow-prisoner saluteth you, and Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (touching whom ye received commandments; if he come unto you, receive him),

For I bear him witness, that he hath much labor for you, and for them in Laodicea, and for them in Hierapolis.
