COL-1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus

Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus

[our] brother,

COL-1:2 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.

COL-1:3 We give thanks to God and the

Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying

always for you,

COL-1:4 Since we heard of your faith in

Christ Jesus, and of the love [which ye

have] to all the saints,

COL-1:5 For the hope which is laid up

for you in heaven, whereof ye heard

before in the word of the truth of the

gospel;

COL-1:6 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:

COL-1:7 As ye also learned of Epaphras

our dear fellowservant, who is for you a

faithful minister of Christ;

COL-1:8 Who also declared unto us your

love in the Spirit.

COL-1:9 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;

COL-1:10 That ye might walk worthy of

the Lord unto all pleasing, being

fruitful in every good work, and

increasing in the knowledge of God;

COL-1:11 Strengthened with all might,

according to his glorious power, unto

all patience and longsuffering with

joyfulness;

COL-1:12 Giving thanks unto the Father,

which hath made us meet to be partakers

of the inheritance of the saints in

light:

COL-1:13 Who hath delivered us from the

power of darkness, and hath translated

[us] into the kingdom of his dear Son:

COL-1:14 In whom we have redemption

through his blood, [even] the

forgiveness of sins:

COL-1:15 Who is the image of the

invisible God, the firstborn of every

creature:

COL-1:16 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:

COL-1:17 And he is before all things,

and by him all things consist.

COL-1:18 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.

COL-1:19 For it pleased [the Father]

that in him should all fulness dwell;

COL-1:20 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.

COL-1:21 And you, that were sometime

alienated and enemies in [your] mind by

wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled

COL-1:22 In the body of his flesh

through death, to present you holy and

unblameable and unreproveable in his

sight:

COL-1:23 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;

COL-1:24 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:

COL-1:25 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;

COL-1:26 [Even] the mystery which hath

been hid from ages and from generations,

but now is made manifest to his saints:

COL-1:27 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:

COL-1:28 Whom we preach, warning every

man, and teaching every man in all

wisdom; that we may present every man

perfect in Christ Jesus:

COL-1:29 Whereunto I also labour,

striving according to his working, which

worketh in me mightily.

COL-2:1 For I would that ye knew what

great conflict I have for you, and [for]

them at Laodicea, and [for] as many as

have not seen my face in the flesh;

COL-2:2 That their hearts might be

comforted, being knit together in love,

and unto all riches of the full

assurance of understanding, to the

acknowledgment of the mystery of God,

and of the Father, and of Christ;

COL-2:3 In whom are hid all the

treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

COL-2:4 And this I say, lest any man

should beguile you with enticing words.

COL-2:5 For though I be absent in the

flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit,

joying and beholding your order, and the

stedfastness of your faith in Christ.

COL-2:6 As ye have therefore received

Christ Jesus the Lord, [so] walk ye in

him:

COL-2:7 Rooted and built up in him, and

stablished in the faith, as ye have been

taught, abounding therein with

thanksgiving.

COL-2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you

through philosophy and vain deceit,

after the tradition of men, after the

rudiments of the world, and not after

Christ.

COL-2:9 For in him dwelleth all the

fulness of the Godhead bodily.

COL-2:10 And ye are complete in him,

which is the head of all principality

and power:

COL-2:11 In whom also ye are

circumcised with the circumcision made

without hands, in putting off the body

of the sins of the flesh by the

circumcision of Christ:

COL-2:12 Buried with him in baptism,

wherein also ye are risen with [him]

through the faith of the operation of

God, who hath raised him from the dead.

COL-2:13 And you, being dead in your

sins and the uncircumcision of your

flesh, hath he quickened together with

him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

COL-2:14 Blotting out the handwriting

of ordinances that was against us, which

was contrary to us, and took it out of

the way, nailing it to his cross;

COL-2:15 [And] having spoiled

principalities and powers, he made a

show of them openly, triumphing over

them in it.

COL-2:16 Let no man therefore judge you

in meat, or in drink, or in respect of

an holyday, or of the new moon, or of

the sabbath [days]:

COL-2:17 Which are a shadow of things

to come; but the body [is] of Christ.

COL-2:18 Let no man beguile you of your

reward in a voluntary humility and

worshipping of angels, intruding into

those things which he hath not seen,

vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

COL-2:19 And not holding the Head, from

which all the body by joints and bands

having nourishment ministered, and knit

together, increaseth with the increase

of God.

COL-2:20 Wherefore if ye be dead with

Christ from the rudiments of the world,

why, as though living in the world, are

ye subject to ordinances,

COL-2:21 (Touch not; taste not; handle

not;

COL-2:22 Which all are to perish with

the using;) after the commandments and

doctrines of men?

COL-2:23 Which things have indeed a

show of wisdom in will worship, and

humility, and neglecting of the body;

not in any honour to the satisfying of

the flesh.

COL-3:1 If ye then be risen with

Christ, seek those things which are

above, where Christ sitteth on the right

hand of God.

COL-3:2 Set your affection on things

above, not on things on the earth.

COL-3:3 For ye are dead, and your life

is hid with Christ in God.

COL-3:4 When Christ, [who is] our life,

shall appear, then shall ye also appear

with him in glory.

COL-3:5 Mortify therefore your members

which are upon the earth; fornication,

uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil

concupiscence, and covetousness, which

is idolatry:

COL-3:6 For which things' sake the

wrath of God cometh on the children of

disobedience:

COL-3:7 In the which ye also walked

some time, when ye lived in them.

COL-3:8 But now ye also put off all

these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy,

filthy communication out of your mouth.

COL-3:9 Lie not one to another, seeing

that ye have put off the old man with

his deeds;

COL-3:10 And have put on the new [man],

which is renewed in knowledge after the

image of him that created him:

COL-3:11 Where there is neither Greek

nor Jew, circumcision nor

uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian,

bond [nor] free: but Christ [is] all,

and in all.

COL-3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect

of God, holy and beloved, bowels of

mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind,

meekness, longsuffering;

COL-3:13 Forbearing one another, and

forgiving one another, if any man have a

quarrel against any: even as Christ

forgave you, so also [do] ye.

COL-3:14 And above all these things

[put on] charity, which is the bond of

perfectness.

COL-3:15 And let the peace of God rule

in your hearts, to the which also ye are

called in one body; and be ye thankful.

COL-3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell

in you richly in all wisdom; teaching

and admonishing one another in psalms

and hymns and spiritual songs, singing

with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

COL-3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word

or deed, [do] all in the name of the

Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the

Father by him.

COL-3:18 Wives, submit yourselves unto

your own husbands, as it is fit in the

Lord.

COL-3:19 Husbands, love [your] wives,

and be not bitter against them.

COL-3:20 Children, obey [your] parents

in all things: for this is well pleasing

unto the Lord.

COL-3:21 Fathers, provoke not your

children [to anger], lest they be

discouraged.

COL-3:22 Servants, obey in all things

[your] masters according to the flesh;

not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but

in singleness of heart, fearing God:

COL-3:23 And whatsoever ye do, do [it]

heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto

men;

COL-3:24 Knowing that of the Lord ye

shall receive the reward of the

inheritance: for ye serve the Lord

Christ.

COL-3:25 But he that doeth wrong shall

receive for the wrong which he hath

done: and there is no respect of

persons.

COL-4:1 Masters, give unto [your]

servants that which is just and equal;

knowing that ye also have a Master in

heaven.

COL-4:2 Continue in prayer, and watch

in the same with thanksgiving;

COL-4:3 Withal praying also for us,

that God would open unto us a door of

utterance, to speak the mystery of

Christ, for which I am also in bonds:

COL-4:4 That I may make it manifest, as

I ought to speak.

COL-4:5 Walk in wisdom toward them that

are without, redeeming the time.

COL-4:6 Let your speech [be] alway with

grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may

know how ye ought to answer every man.

COL-4:7 All my state shall Tychicus

declare unto you, [who is] a beloved

brother, and a faithful minister and

fellowservant in the Lord:

COL-4:8 Whom I have sent unto you for

the same purpose, that he might know

your estate, and comfort your hearts;

COL-4:9 With Onesimus, a faithful and

beloved brother, who is [one] of you.

They shall make known unto you all

things which [are done] here.

COL-4:10 Aristarchus my fellowprisoner

saluteth you, and Marcus, sister's son

to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received

commandments: if he come unto you,

receive him;)

COL-4:11 And Jesus, which is called

Justus, who are of the circumcision.

These only [are my] fellowworkers unto

the kingdom of God, which have been a

comfort unto me.

COL-4:12 Epaphras, who is [one] of you,

a servant of Christ, saluteth you,

always labouring fervently for you in

prayers, that ye may stand perfect and

complete in all the will of God.

COL-4:13 For I bear him record, that he

hath a great zeal for you, and them

[that are] in Laodicea and them in

Hierapolis.

COL-4:14 Luke, the beloved physician,

and Demas, greet you.

COL-4:15 Salute the brethren which are

in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church

which is in his house.

COL-4:16 And when this epistle is read

among you, cause that it be read also in

the church of the Laodiceans; and that

ye likewise read the [epistle] from

Laodicea.

COL-4:17 And say to Archippus, Take

heed to the ministry which thou hast

received in the Lord, that thou fulfil

it.

COL-4:18 The salutation by the hand of

me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace [be]

with you. Amen.
