*
We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ ,
praying always for you ,
*
Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus ,
and of the love which ye have to all the saints ,
*
For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven ,
whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel ;
*
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 :
*
As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant ,
who is for you a faithful minister of Christ ;
*
Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit .
*
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 ;
*
That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing ,
being fruitful in every good work ,
and increasing in the knowledge of God ;
*
Strengthened with all might ,
according to his glorious power ,
unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness ;
*
Giving thanks unto the Father ,
which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light :
*
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness ,
and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son :
*
In whom we have redemption through his blood ,
even the forgiveness of sins :
