1: Paul <G3972>, an apostle <G0652> of Jesus <G2424> Christ <G5547> by <G1223> the will <G2307> of God <G2316>, and <G2532> Timotheus <G5095> [our] brother <G0080>,
2: To the saints <G0040> and <G2532> faithful <G4103> brethren <G0080> in <G1722> Christ <G5547> which are at <G1722> Colosse <G2857>: Grace <G5485> [be] unto you <G5213>, and <G2532> peace <G1515>, from <G0575> God <G2316> our <G2257> Father <G3962> and <G2532> the Lord <G2962> Jesus <G2424> Christ <G5547>.
3: We give thanks <G2168> <G5719> to God <G2316> and <G2532> the Father <G3962> of our <G2257> Lord <G2962> Jesus <G2424> Christ <G5547>, praying <G4336> <G5740> always <G3842> for <G4012> you <G5216>,
4: Since we heard <G0191> <G5660> of your <G5216> faith <G4102> in <G1722> Christ <G5547> Jesus <G2424>, and <G2532> of the love <G0026> [which <G3588> ye have] to <G1519> all <G3956> the saints <G0040>,
5: For <G1223> the hope <G1680> which <G3588> is laid up <G0606> <G5740> for you <G5213> in <G1722> heaven <G3772>, whereof <G3739> ye heard before <G4257> <G5656> in <G1722> the word <G3056> of the truth <G0225> of the gospel <G2098>;
6: Which <G3588> is come <G3918> <G5752> unto <G1519> you <G5209>, as <G2531> <G2532> [it is] in <G1722> all <G3956> the world <G2889>; and <G2532> bringeth forth fruit <G2076> <G5748> <G2592> <G5734>, as <G2531> [it doth] also <G2532> in <G1722> you <G5213>, since <G0575> the <G3739> day <G2250> ye heard <G0191> <G5656> [of it], and <G2532> knew <G1921> <G5627> the grace <G5485> of God <G2316> in <G1722> truth <G0225>:
7: As <G2531> ye <G3129> <G0000> also <G2532> learned <G3129> <G5627> of <G0575> Epaphras <G1889> our <G2257> dear <G0027> fellowservant <G4889>, who <G3739> is <G2076> <G5748> for <G5228> you <G5216> a faithful <G4103> minister <G1249> of Christ <G5547>;
8: Who <G3588> also <G2532> declared <G1213> <G5660> unto us <G2254> your <G5216> love <G0026> in <G1722> the Spirit <G4151>.
9: For <G1223> this cause <G5124> we <G2249> also <G2532>, since <G0575> the day <G2250> we heard <G0191> <G5656> [it], do <G3973> <G0000> not <G3756> cease <G3973> <G5731> to pray <G4336> <G5740> for <G5228> you <G5216>, and <G2532> to desire <G0154> <G5734> that <G2443> ye might be filled <G4137> <G5686> with the knowledge <G1922> of his <G0846> will <G2307> in <G1722> all <G3956> wisdom <G4678> and <G2532> spiritual <G4152> understanding <G4907>;
10: That ye <G5209> might walk <G4043> <G5658> worthy <G0516> of the Lord <G2962> unto <G1519> all <G3956> pleasing <G0699>, being fruitful <G2592> <G5723> in <G1722> every <G3956> good <G0018> work <G2041>, and <G2532> increasing <G0837> <G5746> in <G1519> the knowledge <G1922> of God <G2316>;
11: Strengthened <G1412> <G5746> with <G1722> all <G3956> might <G1411>, according to <G2596> his <G0846> glorious <G1391> power <G2904>, unto <G1519> all <G3956> patience <G5281> and <G2532> longsuffering <G3115> with <G3326> joyfulness <G5479>;
12: Giving thanks <G2168> <G5723> unto the Father <G3962>, which <G3588> hath made <G2427> <G0000> us <G2248> meet <G2427> <G5660> to <G1519> be partakers <G3310> of the inheritance <G2819> of the saints <G0040> in <G1722> light <G5457>:
13: Who <G3739> hath delivered <G4506> <G5673> us <G2248> from <G1537> the power <G1849> of darkness <G4655>, and <G2532> hath translated <G3179> <G5656> [us] into <G1519> the kingdom <G0932> of his <G0848> dear <G0026> Son <G5207>:
14: In <G1722> whom <G3739> we have <G2192> <G5719> redemption <G0629> through <G1223> his <G0846> blood <G0129>, [even] the forgiveness <G0859> of sins <G0266>:
15: Who <G3739> is <G2076> <G5748> the image <G1504> of the invisible <G0517> God <G2316>, the firstborn <G4416> of every <G3956> creature <G2937>:
16: For <G3754> by <G1722> him <G0846> were <G2936> <G0000> all things <G3956> created <G2936> <G5681>, that are in <G1722> heaven <G3772>, and <G2532> that are in <G1909> earth <G1093>, visible <G3707> and <G2532> invisible <G0517>, whether <G1535> [they be] thrones <G2362>, or <G1535> dominions <G2963>, or <G1535> principalities <G0746>, or <G1535> powers <G1849>: all things <G3956> were created <G2936> <G5769> by <G1223> him <G0846>, and <G2532> for <G1519> him <G0846>:
17: And <G2532> he is <G2076> <G5748> before <G4253> all things <G3956>, and <G2532> by <G1722> him <G0846> all things <G3956> consist <G4921> <G5758>.
18: And <G2532> he is <G2076> <G5748> the head <G2776> of the body <G4983>, the church <G1577>: who <G3739> is <G2076> <G5748> the beginning <G0746>, the firstborn <G4416> from <G1537> the dead <G3498>; that <G2443> in <G1722> all <G3956> [things] he might have <G1096> <G5638> the preeminence <G4409> <G5723>.
19: For it pleased <G2106> <G5656> [the Father] that <G3754> in <G1722> him <G0846> should <G2730> <G0000> all <G3956> fulness <G4138> dwell <G2730> <G5658>;
20: And <G2532>, having made peace <G1517> <G5660> through <G1223> the blood <G0129> of his <G0846> cross <G4716>, by <G1223> him <G0846> to reconcile <G0604> <G5658> all things <G3956> unto <G1519> himself <G0848>; by <G1223> him <G0846>, [I say], whether <G1535> [they be] things in <G1909> earth <G1093>, or <G1535> things in <G1722> heaven <G3772>.
21: And <G2532> you <G5209>, that were <G5607> <G5752> sometime <G4218> alienated <G0526> <G5772> and <G2532> enemies <G2190> in [your] mind <G1271> by <G1722> wicked <G4190> works <G2041>, yet <G1161> now <G3570> hath he reconciled <G0604> <G5656>
22: In <G1722> the body <G4983> of his <G0848> flesh <G4561> through <G1223> death <G2288>, to present <G3936> <G5658> you <G5209> holy <G0040> and <G2532> unblameable <G0299> and <G2532> unreproveable <G0410> in his <G0848> sight <G2714>:
23: If <G1489> ye continue <G1961> <G5719> in the faith <G4102> grounded <G2311> <G5772> and <G2532> settled <G1476>, and <G2532> [be] not <G3361> moved away <G3334> <G5746> from <G0575> the hope <G1680> of the gospel <G2098>, which <G3739> ye have heard <G0191> <G5656>, [and] which <G3588> was preached <G2784> <G5685> to <G1722> every <G3956> creature <G2937> which is under <G5259> heaven <G3772>; whereof <G3739> I <G1473> Paul <G3972> am made <G1096> <G5633> a minister <G1249>;
24: Who <G3739> now <G3568> rejoice <G5463> <G5719> in <G1722> my <G3450> sufferings <G3804> for <G5228> you <G5216>, and <G2532> fill up <G0466> <G5719> that which is behind <G5303> of the afflictions <G2347> of Christ <G5547> in <G1722> my <G3450> flesh <G4561> for <G5228> <G0000> his <G0846> body's <G4983> sake <G5228>, which <G3603> is <G2076> <G5748> the church <G1577>:
25: Whereof <G3739> I <G1473> am made <G1096> <G5633> a minister <G1249>, according to <G2596> the dispensation <G3622> of God <G2316> which <G3588> is given <G1325> <G5685> to me <G3427> for <G1519> you <G5209>, to fulfil <G4137> <G5658> the word <G3056> of God <G2316>;
26: [Even] the mystery <G3466> which <G3588> hath been hid <G0613> <G5772> from <G0575> ages <G0165> and <G2532> from <G0575> generations <G1074>, but <G1161> now <G3570> is made manifest <G5319> <G5681> to his <G0846> saints <G0040>:
27: To whom <G3739> God <G2316> would <G2309> <G5656> make known <G1107> <G5658> what <G5101> [is] the riches <G4149> of the glory <G1391> of this <G5127> mystery <G3466> among <G1722> the Gentiles <G1484>; which <G3739> is <G2076> <G5748> Christ <G5547> in <G1722> you <G5213>, the hope <G1680> of glory <G1391>:
28: Whom <G3739> we <G2249> preach <G2605> <G5719>, warning <G3560> <G5723> every <G3956> man <G0444>, and <G2532> teaching <G1321> <G5723> every <G3956> man <G0444> in <G1722> all <G3956> wisdom <G4678>; that <G2443> we may present <G3936> <G5661> every <G3956> man <G0444> perfect <G5046> in <G1722> Christ <G5547> Jesus <G2424>:
29: Whereunto <G1519> <G3739> I <G2872> <G0000> also <G2532> labour <G2872> <G5719>, striving <G0075> <G5740> according to <G2596> his <G0846> working <G1753>, which <G3588> worketh <G1754> <G5734> in <G1722> me <G1698> mightily <G1411>.
