Colossians 1




updv@Colossians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

updv@Colossians:1:2 @ To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ [who are] at Colossae: Grace to you(note:){+}(:note) and peace from God our Father.

updv@Colossians:1:3 @ We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you(note:){+}(:note),

updv@Colossians:1:4 @ having heard of your(note:){+}(:note) faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which you{+} have toward all the saints,

updv@Colossians:1:5 @ because of the hope which is laid up for you(note:){+}(:note) in the heavens, of which you{+} heard before in the word of the truth of the good news,

updv@Colossians:1:6 @ which has come to you(note:){+}(:note); even as it is also in all the world bearing fruit and increasing, as [it does] in you{+} also, since the day you{+} heard and knew the grace of God in truth;

updv@Colossians:1:7 @ even as you(note:){+}(:note) learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow slave, who is a faithful servant of Christ on your{+} behalf,

updv@Colossians:1:8 @ who also declared to us your(note:){+}(:note) love in the Spirit.

updv@Colossians:1:9 @ For this cause we also, since the day we heard [it], do not cease to pray and make request for you(note:){+}(:note), that you{+} may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,

updv@Colossians:1:10 @ to walk worthily of the Lord to all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

updv@Colossians:1:11 @ strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, to all patience and long-suffering with joy;

updv@Colossians:1:12 @ giving thanks to the Father, who made you(note:){+}(:note) meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light;

updv@Colossians:1:13 @ who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love;

updv@Colossians:1:14 @ in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins:

updv@Colossians:1:15 @ who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation;

updv@Colossians:1:16 @ for in him were all things created, in the heavens and on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and to him;

updv@Colossians:1:17 @ and he is before all things, and in him all things consist.

updv@Colossians: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.

updv@Colossians:1:19 @ For it was the good pleasure [of the Father] that in him should all the fullness dwell;

updv@Colossians:1:20 @ and through him to reconcile all things to himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross; through him, whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens.

updv@Colossians:1:21 @ And you(note:){+}(:note), being in time past alienated and enemies in your{+} mind in your{+} evil works,

updv@Colossians:1:22 @ yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you(note:){+}(:note) holy and without blemish and unreproveable before him:

updv@Colossians:1:23 @ if indeed you(note:){+}(:note) continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the good news which you{+} heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven; of which I Paul was made a servant.

updv@Colossians:1:24 @ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your(note:){+}(:note) sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church;

updv@Colossians:1:25 @ of which I was made a servant, according to the dispensation of God which was given me toward you(note:){+}(:note), to fulfill the word of God,

updv@Colossians:1:26 @ [even] the mystery which has been hid since the ages and since the generations: but now it has been manifested to his saints,

updv@Colossians:1:27 @ to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you(note:){+}(:note), the hope of glory:

updv@Colossians:1:28 @ whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ;

updv@Colossians:1:29 @ to which I labor also, striving according to his working, which works in me mightily.
