The Bible, King James version, Book 51: Colossians
Book 51 Colossians
51:001:001 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother,
51:001:002 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
51:001:003 We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
51:001:004 Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,
51:001:005 For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;
51:001:006 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:
51:001:007 As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
51:001:008 Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
51:001:009 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;
51:001:010 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
51:001:011 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
51:001:012 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
51:001:013 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
51:001:014 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
51:001:015 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
51:001:016 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
51:001:017 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
51:001:018 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.
51:001:019 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
51:001:020 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
51:001:021 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
51:001:022 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
51:001:023 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
