Who is the image of the invisible God, the
firstborn
of every
creature:
who is the image of the invisible God, first-born
of all
creation,
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 :
because
in
him were the
all things created, those
in the
heavens
, and those
upon
the
earth, those
visible ,
and those
invisible, whether thrones, whether
lordships
, whether
principalities, whether
authorities;
all things through
him, and for him ,
have
been
created,
And he
is before all things
, and by
him
all things consist
.
and himself
is before all, and the
all things in
him
have
consisted
.
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.
And himself
is the head of the body --
the assembly
--
who is a
beginning, a
first-born
out
of
the dead ,
that he
might
become
in all `
things '
--
himself
--
first,
For
it
pleased
the
Father
that
in him should
all fulness dwell;
because
in him it
did
please
all the
fulness to
tabernacle,
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
.
and through
him
to
reconcile
the
all
things
to
himself
--
having made peace through the blood of his cross --
through
him, whether the
things upon
the
earth, whether
the
things in the
heavens
.
And you ,
that
were
sometime
alienated and enemies in your
mind by
wicked
works, yet now hath
he reconciled
And you --
once
being
alienated ,
and enemies in the
mind ,
in
the
evil
works, yet now did
he reconcile,
In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable
and unreproveable
in
his
sight:
in the body of his flesh through the
death, to present you holy ,
and unblemished,
and unblameable
before
himself,
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;
if also
ye remain
in the faith ,
being
founded
and settled, and not moved away from the hope of the good
news
, which ye heard, which was preached in
all
the
creation
that
`
is '
under the
heaven ,
of
which
I became
--
I
Paul --
a ministrant.
Who
now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that
which
is
behind
of the afflictions
of Christ in my flesh for his body's
sake
, which is the church:
I
now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and do
fill up the
things
lacking
of the tribulations
of the
Christ in my flesh for his body
, which is the assembly,
Whereof
I am
made
a minister,
according to the dispensation of God which
is
given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God ;
of
which
I --
I
did
become
a ministrant
according to the dispensation of God ,
that
was
given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God ,
Even
the mystery
which
hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is
made
manifest
to his saints :
the secret
that
hath been hid from the
ages and from the
generations, but now was
manifested
to his saints ,
To whom God would
make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery
among the Gentiles;
which is Christ in you, the hope of glory :
to whom God did
will
to
make known what `
is '
the riches of the glory of this secret
among the nations
--
which is Christ in you, the hope of the
glory ,
Whom we preach
, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom ;
that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus :
whom we proclaim
, warning every man, and teaching every man ,
in all wisdom ,
that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus ,
Whereunto
I
also labour, striving according to his working ,
which
worketh
in me mightily
.
for
which
also I
labour, striving according to his working that
is
working
in me in
power
.
