COL 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God,
and Timotheus
*3972 *0652 *2424 *5547 *2307
*2316 *5095
our brother,
*0080
2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at
Colosse:
*0040 *4103 *0080 *5547
*1722 *2857
Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord
Jesus
*5485 *1515 *2316 *3962
*2962 *2424
Christ.
*5547
3 We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, praying
*2168 *2316 *3962 *2962 *2424
*5547 *4336
always for you,
*3842
4 Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love
which ye
*0191 *5216 *4102 *5547 *2424
*0026 *3588
have to all the saints,
*3956 *0040
5 For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye
heard before
*1680 *3588 *0606 *3772 *3739
*4257 *4257
in the word of the truth of the gospel;
*3056 *0226 *2098
6 Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and
bringeth forth
*3588 *3918 *3956 *2889
*2592
fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it,
and knew the
*2592 *2532 *0575 *2250 *0191
*1921
grace of God in truth:
*5485 *2316 *0226
7 As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who
is for you a
*2532 *3129 *1889 *0027 *4889
*3739
faithful minister of Christ;
*4103 *1249 *5547
8 Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
*3588 *2532 *1213 *5216 *0026 *4151
9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not
cease to pray
*5124 *5124 *2532 *0575 *2250 *0191
*3973 *4336
for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the
knowledge of his
*0154 *4137 *1922
will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
*2307 *3956 *4678 *4152 *4907
10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing,
being fruitful
*4043 *0516 *2962 *3956 *0699
*2592
in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
*3596 *0018 *2041 *0837 *1922
*2316
11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious
power, unto all
*1412 *3956 *1410 *2596 *1391
*2904 *3956
patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
*5281 *3115 *5479
12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be
partakers
*2168 *3962 *3588 *2427 *2427
*3310
of the inheritance of the saints in light:
*2819 *0040 *5457
13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath
translated
*3739 *4506 *1849 *4655
*3179
us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
*1519 *0932 *0026 *5207
14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the
forgiveness of
*3739 *2192 *0629 *1223 *0129
*0859
sins:
*0266
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of
every creature:
*3739 *1504 *0517 *2316 *4416
*3596 *2937
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and
that are in
*3956 *2936 *3772
earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or
dominions, or
*1093 *3707 *0517 *1535 *2362
*1535 *2963 *1535
principalities, or powers: all things were created by him,
and for him:
*0746 *1535 *1849 *3956 *2936
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
*4253 *3956 *3956 *4921
18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the
beginning, the
*2776 *4983 *1577 *3739
*0746
firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the
preeminence.
*4416 *3498 *3956
*4409
19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness
dwell;
*2106 *3956 *4138
*2730
20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by
him to
*1517 *1517 *1223 *0129 *4716
reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they
be things
*0604 *3956 *0848 *1535
in earth, or things in heaven.
*1093 *1535 *3772
21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your
mind by wicked
*4218 *0526 *2190
*3588 *1271 *4190
works, yet now hath he reconciled
*2041 *1161 *3570 *0604
22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy
and
*4983 *4561 *1223 *2288 *3936
*0040
unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
*0299 *0410 *2714
23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be
not moved
*1489 *1961 *4102 *2311 *1476
*3334
away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and
which was
*3334 *1680 *2098 *0191
*3558
preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I
Paul am made a
*2784 *3596 *2937 *5259 *3772 *3739
*3972 *1096
minister;
*1249
24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that
which is
*3568 *5463 *3804 *0466
behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's
sake, which
*5303 *2347 *5547 *4561
*4983 *3739
is the church:
*1577
25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation
of God which
*3739 *1096 *1249 *2596 *3622
*2316 *3588
is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;
*1325 *4137 *3056 *2316
26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from
generations,
*3466 *3588 *0613 *0165
*1074
but now is made manifest to his saints:
*3570 *5319 *5319 *0040
27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the
glory of this
*3739 *2316 *2309 *1107 *1107 *5101 *4149
*1391 *5127
mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of
glory:
*3466 *1722 *1484 *3739 *5547
*1680 *1391
28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man
in all wisdom;
*3739 *2605 *3560 *3596 *0444 *1321 *3596
*0444 *3956 *4678
that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
*3936 *3596 *0444 *5046 *5547 *2424
29 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working,
which
*3739 *2532 *2872 *0075 *2596
*1753 *3588
worketh in me mightily.
*1754 *1411
2:1 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you,
and for
*2309 *1492 *2245 *2245 *0073 *2192
them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in
the flesh;
*1722 *2993 *3745 *3708
*4383 *4561
2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in
love, and
*2588 *3870 *4822 *4822
*0026
unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the
*3956 *4149 *4136 *4136 *4907
acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and
of Christ;
*1922 *3466 *2316 *3962
*5547
3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
*3739 *0614 *3956 *2344 *4678 *1108
4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with
enticing words.
*5124 *3004 *3361 *3387 *3884
*4086 *4086
5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in
the spirit,
*1499 *0548 *4561 *0235 *1510
*4151
joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your
faith in
*5463 *0991 *5216 *5010 *4733
*5216 *4102
Christ.
*5547
6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk
ye in him:
*3767 *3880 *5547 *2424 *2962
*4043
7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as
ye have been
*4492 *2026 *0950 *4102
taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
*1321 *4052 *0846 *2169
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain
deceit, after
*0991 *3361 *3387 *4812 *1223 *5385
*2756 *0539 *2596
the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not
after
*3862 *0444 *2596 *4747 *2889
*2596
Christ.
*5547
9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
*2730 *3956 *4138 *2320 *4985
10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all
principality and
*4137 *3739 *2776 *3956
*0746
power:
*1849
11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made
without hands,
*3739 *2532 *4059 *4061
*1096 *0886 *0886
in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the
circumcision of
*0555 *0554 *4983 *0266 *4561
*4061
Christ:
*5547
12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with
him through
*4916 *0908 *3757 *2532 *4891
*1223
the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from
the dead.
*4102 *1753 *2316 *3588 *1453
*3498
13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of
your flesh,
*5607 *3498 *5216 *3900 *0203
*5216 *4561
hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all
trespasses;
*4806 *4806 *5483
*3956 *3900
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against
us, which
*1813 *5498 *1378 *2596
*3739
was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to
his cross;
*5227 *0142 *3319 *4338
*4716
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew
of them
*0554 *0746 *1849 *1165
*1165
openly, triumphing over them in it.
*3954 *2358
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or
in
*3361 *5100 *3767 *2919 *1035 *2228
*4213 *2228
respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the
sabbath days:
*3313 *1859 *2228 *3561 *3561 *2228
*4521
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of
Christ.
*3739 *4639 *3195 *4983
*5547
18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary
humility and
*3367 *3367 *2603 *2603 *2309
*5012
worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he
hath not seen,
*2356 *0032 *1687 *3739
*3708
vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
*1500 *5448 *3563
19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints
and bands
*2902 *2776 *3739 *3956 *4983
*0860 *4886
having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth
with the
*2023 *2023 *4822 *4822 *0837
increase of God.
*0838 *2316
20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of
the world,
*3767 *1487 *0599 *5547 *4747
*2889
why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to
ordinances,
*5101 *2198 *2889 *1379 *1379
21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
*0680 *1089 *2345
22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the
commandments and
*3739 *3956 *5356 *0671 *2596
*1778
doctrines of men?
*1319 *0444
23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship,
and humility,
*3748 *2192 *3303 *3056 *4678 *1479
*1479 *5012
and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the
satisfying of the
*0857 *4983 *5100 *5092 *4140
flesh.
*4561
3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which
are above,
*1487 *3767 *4891 *5547 *2212 *3588
*0507
where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
*3757 *5547 *2521 *1722 *1188 *2316
2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the
earth.
*5426 *5426 *0507 *1909
*1093
3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
*0599 *5216 *2222 *2928 *5547
*2316
4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye
also appear
*3752 *5547 *2222 *5316 *5119
*2532 *5316
with him in glory.
*1391
5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth;
fornication,
*3499 *3767 *5216 *3196 *3588 *1093
*4202
uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and
covetousness,
*0167 *3806 *3806 *2556 *1939
*4124
which is idolatry:
*3748 *1495
6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the
children of
*3739 *3709 *2316 *2064 *1909
*5207
disobedience:
*0543
7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
*3739 *2532 *4043 *4218 *4218 *3753 *2198
8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice,
blasphemy,
*3570 *2532 *0659 *0659 *3956 *3588 *3709 *2372
*2549 *0988
filthy communication out of your mouth.
*0140 *0148 *5216 *4750
9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the
old man with
*5574 *0240 *0240 *0554 *0554
*3820 *0444
his deeds;
*4234
10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in
knowledge after the
*1746 *1746 *3501 *3588 *0341
*1922 *2596
image of him that created him:
*1504 *2936
11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor
uncircumcision,
*3699 *3756 *1672 *2532 *2453 *4061
*2532 *0203
Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in
all.
*0915 *4658 *1401 *1658 *5547 *3956
*3956
12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved,
bowels of
*1746 *1746 *3767 *1588 *2316 *0040
*0025 *4698
mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
*3628 *5544 *5012 *4236 *3115
13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if
any man have
*0430 *0240 *0240 *5483 *1438 *1438
*1437 *5100 *2192
a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do
ye.
*3437 *4314 *5100 *2532 *5547 *5483 *3779
*2532
14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the
bond of
*1909 *3956 *5125 *0026 *3748
*4886
perfectness.
*5047
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which
also ye are
*1515 *2316 *1018 *5216 *2588
*3739 *2532
called in one body; and be ye thankful.
*2564 *1520 *4983 *2170
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom;
teaching and
*3056 *5547 *1774 *4146 *3956
*4678 *1321
admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual
songs, singing
*3560 *1438 *1438 *5568 *5215 *4152
*5603 *0103
with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
*5485 *5216 *2588 *2962
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the
name of the
*5100 *4160 *3056 *2228 *2041 *4160 *3956
*3686
Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
*2962 *2424 *2168 *2316 *3962
18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is
fit in the
*1135 *5293 *2398 *2398 *0435
*0433
Lord.
*2962
19 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
*0435 *0025 *3588 *1135 *4087 *4314
20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well
pleasing
*5043 *5219 *3588 *1118 *3956 *5124
*2101 *2101
unto the Lord.
*2962
21 Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be
discouraged.
*3962 *2042 *5216 *5043 *3361
*0120
22 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the
flesh; not
*1401 *5219 *3956 *3588 *2962 *2596
*4561
with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart,
fearing God;
*3787 *0441 *0572 *2588
*5399 *2316
23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and
not unto
*1437 *4160 *2038 *5590 *2962
men;
*0444
24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the
inheritance:
*1492 *2962 *0618 *0469
*2817
for ye serve the Lord Christ.
*1398 *2962 *5547
25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he
hath done:
*0091 *0091 *2865 *0091
*3739 *0091
and there is no respect of persons.
*3756 *4382 *4382
4:1 Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and
equal; knowing
*2962 *3930 *3588 *1401 *1342
*2471 *1492
that ye also have a Master in heaven.
*2532 *2192 *2962 *3772
2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;
*4342 *4335 *1127 *0846 *2169
3 Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a
door of
*0260 *4336 *2532 *2316 *0455
*2374
utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also
in bonds:
*3056 *2980 *3466 *5547 *3739
*2532 *1210
4 That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.
*5319 *5319 *1163 *2980
5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the
time.
*4043 *4678 *4314 *1854 *1805
*2540
6 Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that
ye may know
*5216 *3056 *0104 *5485 *0741 *0217
*1492
how ye ought to answer every man.
*4459 *1163 *0611 *1538 *1520
7 All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, who is a
beloved brother,
*3956 *2596 *5190 *1107
*0027 *0080
and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:
*4103 *1249 *4889 *2962
8 Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might
know your
*3739 *3992 *0846
*1097 *5216
estate, and comfort your hearts;
*4012 *3870 *5216 *2588
9 With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of
you. They
*3682 *4103 *0027 *0080 *3739
shall make known unto you all things which are done here.
*1107 *1107 *3956 *3588 *5602
10 Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus,
sister's son to
*0708 *4869 *0782 *3138
*0431 *0431
Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come
unto you,
*0921 *4012 *3739 *2983 *1785 *1437
*2064
receive him;)
*1209
11 And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the
circumcision. These
*2424 *3588 *3004 *2459 *3588
*4061 *3778
only are my fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have
been a
*3441 *4904 *0932 *2316 *3748
*1096
comfort unto me.
*3931
12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth
you, always
*1889 *3588 *1401 *5547 *0782
*3842
labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand
perfect and
*0075 *4335 *2476
