Colossians 1:16-20 because by Him all things were created —those in the heavens and those on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him.

WPNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ because by Him all things were created —those in the heavens and those on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. ¹⁷ Yes, He is before all, and in Him all things subsist. ¹⁸ Also, He is the Head of the body, the Church. He is Beginning, the firstborn from among the dead, so that He may be preeminent in everything, ¹⁹ because in Him all the Fullness was pleased to dwell ²⁰ and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross —through Him, whether things on the earth or things on the heavens.
