Colossians 1:9-13

Noyes(i) 9 On this account we also, from the day we heard of it, cease not to pray for you, and to ask that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 that ye may walk worthily of the Lord so as to please him in all things, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 endued with all power according to the might of his glory unto all patience and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father, who enabled us to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light; 13 who rescued us from the empire of darkness, and transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son;
