  7 G2531 As G3129 0 ye G2532 also G3129 [G5627] learned G575 from G1889 Epaphras G2257 our G27 dear G4889 fellowslave, G3739 who G2076 [G5748] is G5228 for G5216 you G4103 a faithful G1249 servant G5547 of Anointed;
  8 G3588 Who G2532 also G1213 [G5660] declared G2254 to us G5216 your G26 love G1722 in G4151 the Spirit.
  9 G1223 For G5124 this cause G2249 we G2532 also, G575 from G3739 the G2250 day G191 [G5656] we heard G3973 0 it, do G3756 not G3973 [G5731] cease G4336 [G5740] to pray G5228 for G5216 you, G2532 and G154 [G5734] to desire G2443 that G4137 [G5686] ye may be filled G1922 with the knowledge G846 of his G2307 will G1722 in G3956 all G4678 wisdom G2532 and G4152 spiritual G4907 understanding;
  10 G5209 That ye G4043 [G5658] may walk G516 worthily G2962 of the Lord G1519 to G3956 all G699 pleasing, G2592 [G5723] being fruitful G1722 in G3956 every G18 good G2041 work, G2532 and G837 [G5746] increasing G1519 in G1922 the knowledge G2316 of God;

  12 G2168 [G5723] Giving thanks G3962 to the Father, G3588 who G2427 0 hath made G2248 us G2427 [G5660] qualified G1519 to G3310 be partakers G2819 of the inheritance G40 of the holy ones G1722 in G5457 light:
  13 G3739 Who G4506 [G5673] hath delivered G2248 us G1537 from G1849 the authority G4655 of darkness, G2532 and G3179 [G5656] hath translated G1519 us into G932 the kingdom G846 of his G26 beloved G5207 Son:
  14 G1722 In G3739 whom G2192 [G5719] we have G629 redemption G1223 through G846 his G129 blood, G859 even the release G266 of sins:
  15 G3739 Who G2076 [G5748] is G1504 the image G517 of the invisible G2316 God, G4416 the firstborn G3956 of all G2937 creation:
  16 G3754 For G1722 by G846 him G2936 0 were G3956 all things G2936 [G5681] created, G1722 that are in G3772 heaven, G2532 and G1909 that are upon G1093 earth, G3707 visible G2532 and G517 invisible, G1535 whether G2362 thrones, G1535 or G2963 dominions, G1535 or G746 principalities, G1535 or G1849 authorities: G3956 all things G2936 [G5769] were created G1223 by G846 him, G2532 and G1519 for G846 him:
  17 G2532 And G846 he G2076 [G5748] is G4253 before G3956 all things, G2532 and G1722 by G846 him G3956 all things G4921 [G5758] stand together.
  18 G2532 And G846 he G2076 [G5748] is G2776 the head G4983 of the body, G1577 the congregation: G3739 who G2076 [G5748] is G746 the beginning, G4416 the firstborn G1537 from G3498 the dead; G2443 that G1722 in G3956 all G846 things he G1096 [G5638] may have G4409 [G5723] the preeminence.
  19 G2106 [G5656] For it pleased G3754 the Father that G1722 in G846 him G2730 0 should G3956 all G4138 fulness G2730 [G5658] dwell;
  20 G2532 And, G1517 [G5660] having made peace G1223 through G129 the blood G846 of his G4716 stake, G1223 by G846 him G604 [G5658] to reconcile G3956 all things G1519 to G846 himself; G1223 by G846 him, G1535 I say, whether G1909 they are things on G1093 earth, G1535 or G1722 things in G3772 heaven.
  21 G2532 And G5209 you, G5607 [G5752] that were G4218 once G526 [G5772] ones having been alienated G2532 and G2190 enemies G1271 in your mind G1722 by G4190 wicked G2041 works, G1161 yet G3570 now G604 [G5656] hath he reconciled

All things were created by him and in him. 17 And he is before all: and by him all things consist. 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 may hold the primacy: 19 Because in him, it hath well pleased the Father that all fulness should dwell: 20 And through him to reconcile all things unto himself, making peace through the blood of his cross, both as to the things that are on earth and the things that are in heaven. 21 And you, whereas you were some time alienated and enemies in mind in evil works: 22 Yet now he hath reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unspotted and blameless before him: 23 If so ye continue in the faith, grounded and settled, and immoveable from the hope of the gospel which you have heard, which is preached in all the creation that is under heaven: whereof I Paul am made a minister. 24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you and fill up those things that are wanting of the sufferings of Christ, in my flesh, for his body, which is the church: 25 Whereof I am made a minister according to the dispensation of God, which is given me towards you, that I may fulfil the word of God: 26 The mystery which hath been hidden from ages and generations, but now is manifested to his saints, 27 To whom God would make known the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ, in you the hope of glory. 28 Whom we preach, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus. 29 Wherein also I labour, striving according to his working which he worketh in me in power.

Mace(i) 1 Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ by the divine appointment, and Timothy our brother, 2 to our faithful brethren the christian converts at Coloss. favour and peace be to you from God our father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 In our prayers we continually give thanks to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ upon your account, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the affection you have to all christians; 5 for the sake of that happiness, which you hope for, and is reserv'd for you in heaven, of which you have already been inform'd by the preaching of the truth, that is, the gospel: 6 which is not only come to you, but to all the world; where it produces its effects, and increases, as it does also among you, ever since you sincerely embrac'd the divine favour, 7 which you heard was offer'd to you, by the instructions of Epaphras, our dear fellow-servant, who is to you a faithful minister of Christ: 8 who also declared to us the love you bear to us upon a spiritual account. 9 For this cause, ever since we heard of it, we incessantly pray for you, requesting that you may be endued with respect to the knowledge of his will, with all wisdom and spiritual discernment: 10 that your conduct may be worthy of the Lord, in every respect agreeable to him, being friutful in every kind of virtue, and increasing in divine knowledge: 11 being fortified in so effectual a manner, as to sustain your trials with constancy and joy: 12 giving thanks to the father, who has qualified you to share in that light he affords to his people: 13 who has deliver'd you from the state of darkness, and has translated you into the kingdom of his beloved son. 14 It is by him, that we have obtain'd the redemption, even the remission of our sins: 15 he is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of the whole creation. 16 for by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are on earth, both visible and invisible, the thrones, and the sovereigntys, the principalitys, and the powers: all were created by him, and for him: he is before all things, 17 and by him all things consist. 18 he himself is the head of the church, which is his body. he is the prince, the first-born from the dead, that in all things he might be chief. 19 for it seemed good to the father to inhabit the whole body of the church by Christ: 20 and having made peace by the blood of his cross, to reconcile all things to himself, both those in heaven, and those upon earth. 21 You then that formerly were alienated from God, and were enemies by your imaginations and wicked practices, even you has Jesus Christ now reconciled to the body of his church, 22 through his own death, to present you holy, and unblameable, and unreproveable in his own sight: 23 provided you continue well-grounded and settled in the faith, and do not abandon that hope which has been offer'd to you by the gospel, and is proclaim'd to all mankind; of which I Paul am made a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and am filling up the measure of those remaining afflictions, which in my turn I am to suffer in this life, in the cause of Christ, for the sake of his body, which is the church: 25 of which I have been established a minister, according to the charge which God has given me to preach his gospel faithfully among you. --- 26 that mystery, which has been hid from ages and generations, but is now made manifest to his saints: 27 to whom God does disclose the glorious advantages of this mystery to you Gentiles, to wit, "that by Christ you may have the expectation of glory." 28 he it is that we preach, exhorting, and instructing men in every part of divine knowledge, that they may all be perfectly acquainted with the doctrine of Christ Jesus. 29 this is what I earnestly strive to effect, by virtue of that power, which effectually operates in me.

Haweis(i) 1 PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy a brother, 2 to the saints at Colosse, and to the faithful brethren in Christ: grace be unto you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying for you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and the love ye show to all the saints; 5 because of the hope laid up for you in the heavens, which ye have heard before in the word of truth, the gospel, 6 which is come unto you, as it is also unto all the world; and beareth fruit, as also among you, from the day that ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth; 7 even as ye have learned from Epaphras our beloved fellow-labourer, who is a faithful minister of Christ for you; 8 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit. 9 For this cause we also from the day we heard it have not ceased praying for you, and beseeching God that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will, in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 that ye may walk worthy of the Lord, well pleasing him in all things, in every good work fruitful, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and long-suffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to God, even the Father, who hath made us meet for a portion in the inheritance of the saints in light; 13 who hath plucked us out from the dominion of darkness, and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of his love: 14 in whom we have redemption through his blood, and forgiveness of sins. 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the prime author of all creation: 16 for by him were all things created, celestial and terrestrial, visible or invisible, whether thrones, or dominations, or principalities, or powers, all were created by him, and for him: 17 and he is before all, and by him all things subsist. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the first begotten from the dead, that he might be in all things pre-eminent. 19 For it hath pleased the Father that in him all fulness should dwell; 20 and by him to reconcile all things to himself, making peace by the blood of his cross: by him, I say, whether they be things on earth, or things in the heavens. 21 And you who in time past were all aliens, and enemies in mind by wicked works, hath he now reconciled, 22 by the body of his flesh, through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and irreprehensible in his presence: 23 if ye abide in faith grounded and firm, and never moved aside from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which hath been preached to the whole creation which is under heaven, of which I Paul am a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh the measure of afflictions for Christ which remains to be endured for his body, which is the church, 25 of which I am a minister, according to the dispensation of God, which was given me for you to fulfil the ministry of the word of God— 26 the mystery which was hid from ages and from generations, but is now unveiled to his saints; 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: 28 whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus; 29 for which also I am labouring, conflicting in the energy of his might, which worketh in me powerfully.
Thomson(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timothy the brother, 2 to the holy and faithful brethren in Christ at Colosse: favour be to you, and peace, from God our father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 We give thanks to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying for you, 4 [having heard of your belief in Christ Jesus, and of your love for all the saints] 5 on account of the hope laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before by the true word of the gospel, 6 which is come to you as it hath also to all the world, and is bringing forth fruit, as it doth among you, from the day you heard and acknowledged the favour of God in truth, 7 as you learned it from Epaphras our dear fellow servant, who is for you a faithful minister of the Christ, 8 and the person who informed us of your love in spirit. 9 For this cause, we indeed, from the day we heard of it do not cease praying for you, and requesting, in order that you may be filled, in respect to the acknowledgment of his will 10 with all wisdom and spiritual understanding, that you may walk worthy of the Lord, to all well pleasing. By every good work we bear fruit, and grow up for the acknowledgment of God; 11 being strengthened with all might according to the power of his glory for all patience and long suffering we with joy 12 give thanks to the Father who hath fitted us for a portion of the inheritance of the saints in light; 13 who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and removed us into the kingdom of his beloved son, 14 by whom we have this redemption, even the remission of our sins by the blood of him 15 who is an image of the invisible God, a first born of the whole creation. 16 Because all the things which are in the heavens and which are on the earth were created by him, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers, they were all created by him, and for him; 17 therefore he is before all, and they are all kept in consistence by him, 18 and he is the head of the body, namely of the congregation. He who is the beginning is a first born from the dead that in all things he might be pre-eminent. 19 Because all the plenitude was pleased to dwell in him, and by him to reconcile all to himself, 20 he having by the blood of his cross"by himself, brought them to be at peace, [whether they be the things on earth or the things in heaven,] 21 hath now therefore brought you, who were for a time alienated, and enemies in your minds by wicked works, to a state of reconcilement 22 by the body of his flesh by his death, to present you holy and without blemish, and exempt from accusation in his sight, 23 provided you continue in this belief, grounded and settled, and are not moved away from the hope of the glad tidings which you have heard, which have been proclaimed to this whole creation under heaven, of which I Paul was made a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in these sufferings of mine for you, and am in my turn making up in my flesh the remainders of the sufferings of the Christ, for his body, namely, the congregation 25 of which I was made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which was committed to me for you, to confirm the word of God 26 the mystery which was hidden from the ages and from the generations, but is now manifested to his saints; 27 to whom God hath been pleased to make known the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations: namely Christ in you the hope of Glory, 28 whom we proclaim, admonishing every man, and teaching every man with all wisdom; that we may present every one a full grown man in Christ Jesus; 29 for which I indeed labour, and struggle with all my might, according to that energy of his which operateth in me with power.

He is the beginning, the first born from the dead, that in all respects he might be pre-eminent. 19 For it pleased the Father that all fullness should dwell in him; 20 and by him to reconcile all things to himself, having made peace by the blood of his cross; I say, by him, whether they be things on the earth, or things in the heavens. 21 Even you, who were formerly alienated in mind, and enemies by wicked works, 22 he has now, indeed, reconciled, by the body of his flesh, to present you holy and unblameable, and unreproveable, in his sight; 23 if, indeed, you continue in the faith founded and stable, and not removed from the hope of the gospel which you have heard, which has been proclaimed to every creature which is under heaven; of which I, Paul, am made a minister. 24 I now rejoice in sufferings for you, and fill up the remainder of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh, for his body, which is the congregation; 25 of which I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God, which was given to me on your account, fully to declare the word of God- 26 the secret which had been kept hid from the ages, and from the generations, but now has been made manifest to his saints; 27 to whom God has pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this secret among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom we announce, admonishing every man, and teaching every man, with all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ. 29 For which I also labor, combating vigorously, according to the effectual working of him who works effectually in me with power.

Noyes(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy the brother, 2 to the saints and faithful brethren in Christ at Colossae: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father. 3 We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, 4 since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints, 5 on account of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel, 6 which is come to you, as it is in all the world, and is bearing fruit and growing, as it doth also in you, from the day ye heard it, and knew the grace of God in truth; 7 even as ye learned from Epaphras our beloved fellowservant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on your behalf; 8 who also brought to our knowledge your love in the Spirit. 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; 14 in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins; 15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of the whole creation; 16 for in him were created all things, those in the heavens, and those on the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers, all things have been created through him and for him; 17 and he is before all things, and in him all things subsist. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; since he is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that he may be in all things preeminent; 19 for God was pleased that in him all the fullness should dwell, and by him to reconcile all things to himself, 20 having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him, I say, whether the things on earth, or those in the heavens. 21 And you, that were once alienated, and enemies in your mind in wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled 22 in the body of his flesh through his death, to present you holy and blameless and irreproachable in his sight; 23 if ye indeed continue in the faith grounded and settled, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye heard, which hath been preached in the whole creation under heaven; of which I Paul became a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up instead that which is wanting of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh on behalf of his body, which is the church; 25 of which I became a minister, according to the stewardship which God entrusted to me, for you, to fulfill the word of God, 26 the mystery which hath been hidden for ages and generations, but hath been now revealed to his saints; 27 to whom it was the will of God to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory; 28 whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ; 29 to which end I also am laboring, striving earnestly through his working, which worketh within me mightily.
YLT(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother, 2 to the saints in Colossae, and to the faithful brethren in Christ: Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying for you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love that is to all the saints, 5 because of the hope that is laid up for you in the heavens, which ye heard of before in the word of the truth of the good news, 6 which is present to you, as also in all the world, and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day in which ye heard, and knew the grace of God in truth; 7 as ye also learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is for you a faithful ministrant of the Christ, 8 who also did declare to us your love in the Spirit.
9 Because of this, we also, from the day in which we heard, do not cease praying for you, and asking that ye may be filled with the full knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, 10 to your walking worthily of the Lord to all pleasing, in every good work being fruitful, and increasing to the knowledge of God, 11 in all might being made mighty according to the power of His glory, to all endurance and long-suffering with joy.
12 Giving thanks to the Father who did make us meet for the participation of the inheritance of the saints in the light, 13 who did rescue us out of the authority of the darkness, and did translate us into the reign of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of the sins, 15 who is the image of the invisible God, first-born of all creation, 16 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, 17 and himself is before all, and the all things in him have consisted. 18 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, 19 because in him it did please all the fulness to tabernacle, 20 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. 21 And you—once being alienated, and enemies in the mind, in the evil works, yet now did he reconcile, 22 in the body of his flesh through the death, to present you holy, and unblemished, and unblameable before himself, 23 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. 24 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, 25 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, 26 the secret that hath been hid from the ages and from the generations, but now was manifested to his saints, 27 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, 28 whom we proclaim, warning every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus, 29 for which also I labour, striving according to his working that is working in me in power.

  13 G3739 who G4506 delivered G2248 us G1537 out G1849 of the power G4655 of darkness, G2532 and G3179 translated G1519 us into G932 the kingdom G5207 of the Son G846 of his G26 love;
  14 G1722 in G3739 whom G2192 we have G629 our redemption, G859 the forgiveness G266 of our sins:
  15 G3739 who G2076 is G1504 the image G517 of the invisible G2316 God, G4416 the firstborn G3956 of all G2937 creation;
  16 G3754 for G1722 in G846 him G2936 were G3956 all things G2936 created, G1722 in G3772 the heavens G2532 and G1093 upon the earth, G3707 things visible G2532 and G517 things invisible, G1535 whether G2362 thrones G1535 or G2963 dominions G1535 or G746 principalities G1535 or G1849 powers; G3956 all things G2936 have been created G1223 through G846 him, G2532 and G1519 unto G846 him;
  17 G2532 and G846 he G2076 is G4253 before G3956 all things, G2532 and G1722 in G846 him G3956 all things G4921 consist.
  18 G2532 And G846 he G2076 is G2776 the head G4983 of the body, G1577 the church: G3739 who G2076 is G746 the beginning, G4416 the firstborn G1537 from G3498 the dead; G2443 that G1722 in G3956 all G846 things he G1096 might G4409 have the preeminence.
  19 G3754 For G2106 it was the good pleasure G1722 of the Father that in G846 him G2730 should G3956 all G4138 the fulness G2730 dwell;
  20 G2532 and G1223 through G604 him to reconcile G3956 all things G1519 unto G846 himself, G1517 having made peace G1223 through G129 the blood G846 of his G4716 cross; G1223 through G846 him, G1535 I say, whether G3588 things G1909 upon G1093 the earth, G1535 or G3588 things G1909 in G3772 the heavens.
  21 G2532 And G5209 you, G1271 being in G4218 time past G526 alienated G2532 and G2190 enemies G1271 in G1271 your mind G4190 in your evil G2041 works,
  22 G3570 yet now G604 hath he reconciled G1722 in G4983 the body G846 of his G4561 flesh G1223 through G2288 death, G3936 to present G5209 you G40 holy G2532 and G299 without blemish G2532 and G410 unreproveable G2714 before G846 him:
  23 G1489 if G1961 so be that ye continue in G4102 the faith, G2311 grounded G2532 and G1476 stedfast, G2532 and G3361 not G3334 moved away G575 from G1680 the hope G2098 of the gospel G3739 which G191 ye heard, G2784 which was preached G1722 in G3956 all G2937 creation G5259 under G3772 heaven; G3739 whereof G1473 I G3972 Paul G1096 was made G1249 a minister.
  24 G3568 Now G3739 I G5463 rejoice G1722 in G3450 my G3804 sufferings G5228 for G5216 your G2532 sake, and G466 fill up G5303 on my part that which is lacking G2347 of the afflictions G5547 of Christ G1722 in G3450 my G4561 flesh G5228 for G846 his G4983 body's G5228 sake, G3739 which G2076 is G1577 the church;
  25 G3739 whereof G1473 I G1096 was made G1249 a minister, G2596 according to G3622 the dispensation G2316 of God G1325 which was given G3427 me G1519 to G5209 you-ward, G4137 to fulfil G3056 the word G2316 of God,
  26 G3466 even the mystery G613 which hath been hid G575 for G165 ages G2532 and G1074 generations: G1161 but G3570 now G5319 hath it been manifested G40 to G846 his G40 saints,
  27 G3739 to whom G2316 God G2309 was pleased G1107 to make known G5101 what G4149 is the riches G1391 of the glory G5127 of this G3466 mystery G1722 among G1484 the Gentiles, G3739 which G2076 is G5547 Christ G1722 in G5213 you, G1680 the hope G1391 of glory:
  28 G3739 whom G2249 we G2605 proclaim, G3560 admonishing G3956 every G444 man G2532 and G1321 teaching G3956 every G444 man G1722 in G3956 all G4678 wisdom, G2443 that G3936 we may present G3956 every G444 man G5046 perfect G1722 in G5547 Christ;

JPS_ASV_Byz(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ that are at Colossae; Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have toward all the saints, 5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel, 6 which is come unto you, even as it is also in all the world bearing fruit and increasing, as it doth in you also, since the day ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth, 7 even as ye learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf, 8 who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit. 9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray and make request for you, that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 to walk worthily of the Lord unto all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God, 11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, unto all patience and longsuffering with joy, 12 giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light, 13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love, 14 in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins: 15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation, 16 for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers, all things have been created through him, and unto him, 17 and he is before all things, and in him all things consist. 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. 19 For it was the good pleasure of the Father that in him should all the fullness dwell, 20 and through him to reconcile all things unto himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross, through him, I say, whether things upon the earth, or things in the heavens. 21 And you, being in time past alienated and enemies in your mind in your evil works, 22 yet now hath he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and unreproveable before him: 23 if so be that ye continue in the faith, grounded and stedfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel which ye heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven, whereof I Paul was made a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church, 25 whereof I was made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which was given me to you-ward, to fulfil the word of God, 26 even the mystery which hath been hid for ages and generations; but now hath it been manifested to his saints, 27 to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, who is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ, 29 whereunto I labor also, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
Rotherham(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy my brother,–– 2 Unto the holy and faithful brethren in Christ that are, in Colosse, favour unto you, and peace, from our God and Father.
3 We are giving thanks unto God, the Father of our Lord Jesus [Christ], always, for you, offering prayer,–– 4 Having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which ye have unto all the saints,–– 5 Because of the hope that is lying by for you in the heavens, of which ye heard before, in the word of the truth of the glad–message, 6 When it presented itself unto you; even as, in all the world also, it is bearing fruit and growing, even as also among you, from the day when ye heard, and came personally to know the favour of God in truth, 7 Even as ye learned [it] from Epaphras, our beloved fellow–servant, who is faithful in our behalf, as a minister of the Christ, 8 Who also hath made evident unto us your love in spirit.
9 For this cause, we also, from the day when we heard [of you], cease not, in your behalf, praying and asking––that ye may be filled unto the personal knowledge of his will, in all spiritual wisdom and discernment, 10 So as to walk worthily of the Lord, unto all pleasing, in every good work, bearing fruit, and growing in the personal knowledge of God, 11 With all power, being empowered, according to the grasp of his glory, unto all endurance and long–suffering with joy,
12 Giving thanks unto the Father that hath made you sufficient for your share in the inheritance of the saints in the light, 13 Who hath rescued us out of the authority of the darkness, and translated [us] into the kingdom of the Son of his love; 14 In whom, we have our redemption––the remission of our sins,–– 15 Who, is an image of the unseen God, Firstborn of all creation,–– 16 Because, in him, were created all things in the heavens and upon the earth, the things seen and the things unseen, whether thrones or lordships or principalities or authorities,––they all, through him and for him, have been created, 17 And, he, is before all, and, they all, in him, hold together; 18 And, he, is the head of the body, the assembly, Who is the beginning, Firstborn from among the dead, in order that, he, might become, in all things, himself, pre–eminent; –– 19 Because, in him, was all the fullness well pleased to dwell, 20 And, through him, fully to reconcile all things unto him, making peace through the blood of his cross,––[through him]––whether the things upon the earth or the things in the heavens; 21 And, you, who at one time were estranged and enemies in your mind in your wicked works, yet, now, hath he fully reconciled, 22 In his body of flesh, through means of his death, to present you holy and blameless and unaccusable before him,–– 23 If, at least, ye are abiding still in the faith, founded and firm, and not to be moved away from the hope of the glad–message which ye have heard, which hath been proclaimed in all creation which is under heaven,––of which, I Paul, have become minister. 24 Now, am I rejoicing in the sufferings on your behalf, and am filling up the things that lack of the tribulations of the Christ, in my flesh, in behalf of his body, which is the assembly, 25 Of which, I, have become minister––according to the administration of God which hath been given unto me to you–ward, to fill up the word of God, 26 The sacred secret which had been hidden away from the ages and from the generations, but, now, hath been made manifest unto his saints–– 27 Unto whom God hath been pleased to make known what is the glorious wealth of this sacred secret among the nations, which is Christ in you, the hope of the glory,–– 28 Whom we are declaring, admonishing every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, in order that we may present every man complete in Christ; 29 Unto which I am even toiling, contending according to his energy which is energising itself in me with power.
Twentieth_Century(i) 1 From Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus, by the will of God, and from Timothy, our Brother. 2 To Christ's People at Colossae--the Brothers who are faithful to him: May God, our Father, bless you and give you peace. 3 Whenever we pray, we never fail to thank God, the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ, about you, 4 Now that we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all his People, 5 On account of the hope which awaits its fulfillment in Heaven. Of this hope you heard long ago in the true Message of the Good News which reached you-- 6 Bearing fruit and growing, as it does, through all the world, just as it did among you, from the very day that you heard of God's loving-kindness, and understood what that loving-kindness really is. 7 It is just what you learned from Epaphras, our dear fellow- servant, who, as a minister of the Christ, faithfully represents us, 8 And who told us of the love with which the Spirit has inspired you. 9 And therefore we, from the very day that we heard this, have never ceased praying for you, or asking that you may possess that deeper knowledge of the will of God, which comes through all true spiritual wisdom and insight. 10 Then you will live lives worthy of the Master, and so please God in every way. Your lives will be fruitful in every kind of good action, and your characters will grow through a fuller knowledge of God; 11 You will be made strong at all points with a strength worthy of the power manifested in his Glory--strong to endure with patience, and even with gladness, whatever may befall you; 12 And you will give thanks to the Father who made you fit to share the lot which awaits Christ's People in the realms of Light. 13 For God has rescued us from the tyranny of Darkness, and has removed us into the Kingdom of his Son, who is the embodiment of his love, 14 And through whom we have found deliverance in the forgiveness of our sins. 15 For Christ is the very incarnation of the invisible God-- First-born and Head of all creation; 16 For in him was created all that is in Heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisible--Angels and Archangels and all the Powers of Heaven. 17 All has been created through him and for him. He was before all things, and all things unite in him; 18 And he is the Head of the Church, which is his Body. The First-born from the dead, he is to the Church the Source of its Life, that he, in all things, may stand first. 19 For it pleased the Father that in him the divine nature in all its fulness should dwell, 20 And through him to reconcile all things to himself (making peace by the shedding of Christ's blood offered upon the cross)-- whether on earth or in Heaven. 21 And it pleased God that you, once estranged from him and hostile towards him in your thoughts, intent only on wickedness-- 22 But now he has reconciled you to himself by the sacrifice of Christ's earthly body in death--it has pleased God that you should stand in his presence holy, pure, and blameless, 23 If only you remain true to your Faith, firm and immovable, never abandoning the hope held out in the Good News to which you listened, which has been proclaimed among all created things under Heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made a minister. 24 Now at last I can rejoice in my sufferings on your behalf, and in my own person I supplement the afflictions endured by the Christ, for the sake of his Body, the Church; 25 Of which I myself became a minister in virtue of the office with which God entrusted me for your benefit, to declare the Message of God in all its fulness-- 26 That Truth which has been hidden from former ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to God's People, 27 To whom it was his pleasure to make known the surpassing glory of that hidden Truth when proclaimed among the Gentiles--'Christ among you! Your Hope of glory!' 28 This is the Christ whom we proclaim, warning every one, and instructing every one, with all the wisdom that we possess, in the hope of bringing every one into God's presence perfected by union with Christ. 29 It is for that I toil, struggling with all the energy which he inspires and which works powerfully within me.
Godbey(i) 1 Paul, the apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and brother Timothy, 2 to the saints who are in Colossae and the faithful brethren in Christ. Grace to you and peace from God our Father. 3 We give thanks to God even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying for you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and the divine love which you have toward all the saints. 5 on account of the hope which awaits you in the heavens, which you heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel, 6 having come to you, as it is indeed in the whole world bearing fruit and increasing, as also among you, from the day on which you heard and have known the grace of God in truth; 7 as you have learned from Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is the faithful minister of Christ your behalf, 8 who also having revealed to us your divine love in the Spirit. 9 Therefore we, from the day on which we heard, do not cease praying for you, and asking that you may be filled with the perfect knowledge of his will in all wisdom, and spiritual understanding, 10 that you may walk worthily of the Lord in all loyalty, in every good work bearing fruit, and increasing in the perfect knowledge of God. 11 being impowered with all power, according to the might of his glory, in all patience and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has made us worthy unto a participation of the inheritance of the saints in light; 13 who delivered us from the power of darkness, and transplanted us into the kingdom of the Son of his love; 14 in whom we have redemption, the remission of sins: 15 who is the image of the invisible God, being the first begotten of all creation, 16 because in him all things are created, in the heavens and upon the earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All things were created by him, and unto him; 17 and he before all things, and all things consist in him: 18 and himself is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the first begotten from the dead, in order that in all things himself may be preeminent: 19 because in him all fulness is pleased to dwell; 20 and through him, to reconcile all things unto himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross: through him, whether things upon the earth, or things in the heavens. 21 And you, being at one time aliens and enemies in your minds on account of wicked works, nevertheless he has now reconciled 22 in the body of his cross through death, to present you holy and blameless and unreprovable before him, 23 if you abide in the faith, having been grounded and firm, and not moved from the hope of the gospel which you have heard, having been preached in all creation which is under heaven; whose minister I Paul became. 24 Now I rejoice in sufferings in your behalf, and am filling up the residue of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh in behalf of his body, which is the church; 25 whose minister I became, according to the economy of God which was given to me unto you, to fulfill the word of God, 26 the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from the generations: but is now made manifest to his saints, 27 to whom God willed to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, who is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 whom we preach, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, in order that we may present every man perfect in Christ; 29 unto which I also labor, agonizing according to his energy, working in me with power.
WNT(i) 1 Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God--and Timothy our brother: 2 To the people of God and the believing brethren at Colossae who are in Christ. May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father. 3 We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, constantly praying for you as we do, 4 because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you cherish towards all God's people, 5 on account of the hope treasured up for you in Heaven. Of this hope you have already heard in the Message of the truth of the Good News. 6 For it has reached you, and remains with you, just as it has also spread through the whole world, yielding fruit there and increasing, as it has done among you from the day when first you heard it and came really to know the grace of God, 7 as you learned it from Epaphras our dearly-loved fellow servant. He is to you a faithful minister of Christ in our stead, 8 and moreover he has informed us of your love, which is inspired by the Spirit. 9 For this reason we also, from the day we first received these tidings, have never ceased to pray for you and to entreat that you may be filled with a clear knowledge of His will accompanied by thorough wisdom and discernment in spiritual things; 10 so that your lives may be worthy of the Lord and perfectly pleasing to Him, while you exhibit the results of right action of every sort and grow into a fuller knowledge of God. 11 Since His power is so glorious, may you be strengthened with strength of every kind, and be prepared for cheerfully enduring all things with patience and long-suffering; 12 and give thanks to the Father who has made us fit to receive our share of the inheritance of God's people in Light. 13 It is God who has delivered us out of the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us into the Kingdom of His dearly-loved Son, 14 in whom we have our redemption--the forgiveness of our sins. 15 Christ is the visible representation of the invisible God, the Firstborn and Lord of all creation. 16 For in Him was created the universe of things in heaven and on earth, things seen and things unseen, thrones, dominions, princedoms, powers--all were created, and exist through and for Him. 17 And HE IS before all things and in and through Him the universe is a harmonious whole. 18 Moreover He is the Head of His Body, the Church. He is the Beginning, the Firstborn from among the dead, in order that He Himself may in all things occupy the foremost place. 19 For it was the Father's gracious will that the whole of the divine perfections should dwell in Him. 20 And God purposed through Him to reconcile the universe to Himself, making peace through His blood, which was shed upon the Cross--to reconcile to Himself through Him, I say, things on earth and things in Heaven. 21 And you, estranged as you once were and even hostile in your minds, amidst your evil deeds, 22 He has now, in His human body, reconciled to God by His death, to bring you, holy and faultless and irreproachable, into His presence; 23 if, indeed, you are still firmly holding to faith as your foundation, without ever shifting from your hope that rests on the Good News that you have heard, which has been proclaimed in the whole creation under Heaven, and in which I Paul have been appointed to serve. 24 Now I can find joy amid my sufferings for you, and I fill up in my own person whatever is lacking in Christ's afflictions on behalf of His Body, the Church. 25 I have been appointed to serve the Church in the position of responsibility entrusted to me by God for your benefit, so that I may fully deliver God's Message-- 26 the truth which has been kept secret from all ages and generations, but has now been revealed to His people, 27 to whom it was His will to make known how vast a wealth of glory for the Gentile world is implied in this truth--the truth that 'Christ is in you, the hope of glory.' 28 Him we preach, admonishing every one and instructing every one, with all possible wisdom, so that we may bring every one into God's presence, made perfect through Christ. 29 To this end, like an earnest wrestler, I exert all my strength in reliance upon the power of Him who is mightily at work within me.
Worrell(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy, the brother, 2 to the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are in Colosse: Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father. 3 We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have toward all the saints, 5 because of the hope laid up for you in Heaven, of which ye heard before in the word of the truth of the Gospel, 6 which is present among you, even as it is in all the world bearing fruit and increasing, as it does in you also, since the day ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth; 7 even as ye learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is for us a faithful minister of Christ, 8 who also made known to us your love in the Spirit. 9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, cease not praying for you, and asking that ye may be filled with the full knowledge of His will, in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, 10 to walk worthily of the Lord to all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and growing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of His glory, unto all patience and long-suffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father, Who made us meet for the portion of the inheritance of the saints in light; 13 Who delivered us out of the dominion of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of His love; 14 in Whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins; 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, Primal Source of all creation; 16 because in Him were all things created, in the heavens, and upon the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers—all things have been created through Him, and for Him; 17 and He is before all things, and in Him all things have held together. 18 And He is the Head of the body, the assembly; Who is the Beginning, the First-born from the dead, that in all things He may be preeminent; 19 because it was pleasing that in Him all the fulness should dwell; 20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, whether the things on the earth, or the things in the heavens. 21 And you, being in time past alienated and enemies in your mind in evil works, 22 yet now did He reconcile in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and without blemish, and irreproachable, before Him; 23 if, at least, ye continue in the faith, founded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the Gospel, which ye heard, which was preached in all creation under the heaven, of which I, Paul, was made a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings in your behalf, and fill up in turn the deficiencies of the tribulations of Christ in my flesh for the sake of His body, which is the assembly; 25 of which I was made a minister, according to the dispensation of God, which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God, 26 the mystery which has been hidden from the ages and from the generations, but was now made manifest to His saints; 27 to whom God willed to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory; 28 Whom we proclaim, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ; 29 to which end I am toiling also, striving according to His working, which is working in me with power.
Moffatt(i) 1 Paul, by God's will an apostle of Christ Jesus, and brother Timotheus, 2 to the consecrated and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: grace and peace to you from God our Father. 3 We always thank the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ when we pray for you, 4 since we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and your love for all the saints, 5 due to the hope which is laid up for you in heaven. You heard of this hope originally in the message of the Truth, in that gospel 6 which has reached you as it spreads over all the world with fruit and increase. Such has been your life from the day you learned to know what God's grace really is. 7 You got that lesson from our beloved fellow-servant Epaphras, a minister of Christ who is faithful to your interests; 8 and it is he who has informed us of your love in the Spirit. 9 Hence, from the day we heard of it, we have never ceased to pray for you, asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and insight, 10 so that you may lead a life that is worthy of the Lord and give him entire satisfaction. May you be fruitful and increase in the doing of all good, as you thus know God! 11 May his glorious might nerve you with full power to endure and to be patient cheerfully, whatever comes, 12 thanking the Father who has qualified us to share the lot of the saints in the Light, 13 rescuing us from the power of the Darkness and transferring us to the realm of his beloved Son! 14 In him we enjoy our redemption, that is, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the likeness of the unseen God, born first before all the creation — 16 for it was by him that all things were created both in heaven and on earth, both the seen and the unseen, including Thrones, angelic Lords, celestial Powers and Rulers; all things have been created by him and for him; 17 he is prior to all, and all coheres in him. 18 Also, he is the head of the Body, that is, of the church, in virtue of his primacy as the first to be born from the dead — that gives him pre-eminence over all. 19 For it was in him that the divine Fulness willed to settle without limit, 20 and by him it willed to reconcile in his own person all on earth and in heaven alike, in a peace made by the blood of his cross. 21 Once you were estranged yourselves, your hearts hostile to him in evildoing; but now he has reconciled you by dying in his mortal body, 22 so as to set you consecrated and unblemished and irreproachable in his presence — 23 that is, if you adhere to the foundations and stability of the faith, instead of moving away from the hope you have learned in the gospel, that gospel which has been preached to every creature under heaven, and of which I Paul was made a minister. 24 I am suffering now on your behalf, but I rejoice in that; I would make up the full sum of all that Christ has to suffer in my person on behalf of the church, his Body; 25 for I am a minister of the church by the divine commission which has been granted me in your interests, to make a full presentation of God's message — 26 of that open secret which, though concealed from ages and generations of old, has now been disclosed to the saints of God. 27 It is His will that they should understand the glorious wealth which this secret holds for the Gentiles, in the fact of Christ's presence among you as your hope of glory. 28 This is the Christ we proclaim; we train everyone and teach everyone the full scope of this knowledge, in order to set everyone before God mature in Christ; 29 I labour for that end, striving for it with the divine energy which is a power within me.
Goodspeed(i) 1 Paul, by God's will an apostle of Christ Jesus, and our brother Timothy, 2 to the devoted and steadfast Christian brothers in Colossae; God our Father bless you and give you peace. 3 We never pray for you without thanking God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 for what we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love you have for all God's people, 5 and for the hope of what is stored up for you in heaven. You first heard of it long ago when the true message of the gospel 6 came among you, to thrive and bear its fruit among you, as it does all over the world, from the time when you first heard about the mercy of God, 7 and really came to know it, in the form in which Epaphras, my dear fellow-slave, taught it to you. He is my faithful representative as a servant of Christ, 8 and it is he who has told me of the love the Spirit has awakened in you. 9 That is why, from the day I first heard of it, I have never given up praying for you and asking God to fill you, through full spiritual wisdom and insight, with a clear knowledge of what his will is, 10 so that the lives you live may be worthy of your Master and wholly pleasing to him, and you may be fruitful in all kinds of good deeds, and may grow into fuller knowledge of God. 11 Then, so mighty is his majesty, he will nerve you perfectly with strength for the cheerful exercise of endurance and forbearance in every situation, 12 and you will thank the Father who has entitled you to share the lot of God's people in the realm of light. 13 He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us into the realm of his dear Son, 14 by whom we have been ransomed from captivity through having our sins forgiven. 15 He is a likeness of the unseen God, born before any creature, 16 for it was through him that everything was created in heaven and on earth, the seen and the unseen, angelic thrones, dominions, principalities, authorities—all things were created through him and for him. 17 He existed before all things and he sustains and embraces them all. 18 He is the head of the church, it is his body; for he is the beginning, the firstborn from among the dead—that he might come to stand first in everything. 19 For all the divine fulness chose to dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile to God all things on earth or in heaven, making this peace through his blood shed on the cross. 21 And it has brought you, who were once estranged from him, hostile in attitude and engaged in doing wrong (though now he has reconciled you 22 through dying in his human body) in holiness, and free from reproach or blame, into God's presence— 23 if at least you continue firm and steadfast in the exercise of faith, and never shift from the hope held out in the good news to which you listened, which has been preached all over the world, and for which I, Paul, became a worker. 24 At present I am glad to be suffering in your interest, and I am making up in my own person what is lacking in Christ's sufferings for the church, which is his body. 25 In it, by divine appointment, I became a worker, that I might preach among you the message of God in its fulness— 26 that secret, hidden from the ages and generations, but now disclosed to those who are consecrated to him, 27 to whom God has chosen to make known among the heathen how glorious this mystery of Christ in you, the promise of glorification, really is. 28 And in spreading the news of him, we warn everyone and teach everyone all our wisdom, in order to bring everyone to Christian perfection. 29 That is what I am working for, fighting with all the energy with which he so mightily endows me.
Riverside(i) 1 PAUL, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the holy and faithful brethren in Christ in Colossae: Grace be to you and peace from God our Father! 3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, in praying for you, 4 because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love that you have to all the holy 5 because of the hope laid up for us in heaven. Of this you have already heard in the true message of the good news 6 which has come to you. Just as in all the world it is bearing fruit and growing, so also it is among you since the day that you heard and learned of the grace of God in truth. 7 So you learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ in your behalf, 8 and who has told us of your love in the Spirit. 9 For this reason we also, from the day we heard it, never cease praying for you and asking that you may have full knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual insight, 10 and that you may live lives worthy of the Lord and please him in every way. May you bear fruit in every good work and grow in the knowledge of God. 11 May you be strengthened with all strength according to his glorious power, so as to have all patience and endurance. 12 May you joyfully give thanks to the Father who has made you fit to share in the inheritance of the holy in light. 13 He has saved us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of our sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the first born of all creation; 16 for in him were created all things in heaven and on earth, both visible and invisible, whether thrones or lordships or archangels or powers — all things have been created through him and for him, 17 and he is before all things and in him all things unite. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that he may be first in all things, 19 because it pleased God to have all his fullness dwell in him 20 and to reconcile all things to himself through him, making peace through the blood of his cross — all things, I say, whether on earth or in heaven. 21 And you who were once alienated and enemies in your minds, living in wicked works, he has reconciled 22 by his body of flesh through death, to present you holy and spotless and blameless before him, 23 if you remain in the faith, firm and steadfast, never moving from the hope of the good news which you have heard and which has been proclaimed in all the creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a servant. 24 Now I rejoice in what I suffer for your sake, and in my turn am filling up in my flesh what was lacking in the afflictions of Christ for the sake of his body, that is, the church. 25 I became a servant of the church according to the commission from God given to me for you, to deliver fully God's message, 26 the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now made plain to his holy ones, 27 to whom God willed to make known what is the glorious wealth of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you the hope of glory. 28 And we are announcing him, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom in order that we may present every man complete in Christ. 29 For this also I labor, wrestling with the energy of him who works powerfully within me.
MNT(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the holy and believing brothers in Christ who are in Colosse. Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father. 3 Whenever I pray for you I am continually thanking God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ 4 (since I heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and your love to all the saints) 5 because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Long ago you heard of this hope in the message which came to you of the truth of the gospel. 6 And just as it is spreading through the whole world, bearing fruit and increasing, so also is it among you, from the day in which you heard it, and came truly to know the grace of God, 7 as you learned it from Epaphras, our dearly loved fellow slave. He is a faithful minister of Jesus Christ in your behalf, 8 and it is he who has told me of your love for me in the spirit. 9 For this reason from the day I heard of it I have never ceased to pray for you, asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will with every kind of wisdom and spiritual insight; 10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord in every kind of pleasing; that you may be fruitful in every kind of good work, and may increase in the knowledge of God; 11 that you may be strengthened in every kind of strength by the might of his glory for every kind of patience and fortitude with good cheer. 12 I ask that you may give thanks to the Father who has made us fit to receive our share of the heritage of the saints in the light. 13 For he has delivered us out of the dominion of the darkness, and transplanted us into the kingdom of his dear Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of our sins. 15 He is a visible image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; 16 for in him was the universe created, things in heaven and on earth, the seen and the unseen, thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers; by him and for him all have been created; 17 and HE IS before all, and in him all things subsist. 18 He is the head of his Body, the Church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, in order that in all things he may become preeminent. 19 For in him all the divine fulness chose to dwell; 20 and by him it chose to reconcile all things alike on earth or in heaven to himself; making peace by him, through the blood of his cross. 21 And you, alienated as you once were, hostile at heart in your evil deeds, 22 he has now in his human body reconciled to God by his death, in order that he may bring you into his presence, holy and unblemished and irreproachable. 23 And this he will do if, indeed, you continue in the faith, firmly founded and stedfast, and never moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, and which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, that gospel of which I, Paul, was made a minister. 24 I am now rejoicing in my sufferings on your behalf; and I am filling up in my own body what is yet lacking of the sufferings of Christ in behalf of the church, his Body. 25 It is of this I was made a minister, according to the stewardship entrusted to me by God for you, fully to declare God's message; 26 that secret truth, which, although hidden from ages and generations of old, has now been made manifest to his saints. 27 To them God willed to make known among the Gentiles how glorious are the riches of that secret truth, which is "Christ in you, the hope of glory." 28 Him I am ever proclaiming, warning every one and teaching every one, in all wisdom; that I may bring every man into his presence, full grown in Christ. 29 For that end I am ever toiling, wrestling with all that energy of his which is mightily at work within me.
Lamsa(i) 1 PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Ti-moÆthe-us our brother, 2 To those who are at Colosse, holy brethren and believers in Jesus Christ: Peace be with you, and grace from God our Father and our LORD Jesus Christ. 3 Always we give thanks to God, the Father of our LORD Jesus Christ, and always we pray for you, 4 Since we heard of your faith in Jesus Christ, and of your love for all the saints, 5 For the hope which is preserved for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the true word of the gospel; 6 Which has been preached to you, just as it has been preached throughout the world; growing and bringing forth fruits, as it does also in you, since the day you heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth; 7 Just as you have learned it from EpÆa-phras our beloved fellow-servant, who is for your sakes a faithful minister of Christ: 8 And who has made known to us your love for spiritual things. 9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you might be filled with the knowledge of the will of God in all wisdom and in all spiritual understanding; 10 That you might live a righteous life, please God with all good works, and bring forth good fruits, and grow in the knowledge of God; 11 And be strengthened with all might, according to the greatness of his glory, in all patience and longsuffering, 12 So that you may joyfully give thanks to God the Father, who has enlightened us and made us worthy partakers of the inheritance of the saints; 13 And has delivered us from the power of darkness, and brought us to the kingdom of his beloved Son: 14 By whom we have obtained salvation and forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, and the first-born of every creature: 16 And through him were created all things that are in heaven, and on earth, visible and invisible; whether imperial thrones, or lordships, or angelic orders, or dominions, all things were in his hand and were created by him: 17 And he is before all things, and by him all things are sustained. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church: for he is the beginning, the firstfruits of the resurrection from the dead; that in all things he might be the first; 19 For it pleased God to complete all things in him; 20 And by his hand to reconcile everything to himself; and through his blood shed on the cross made peace both for those who dwell on earth and for those who dwell in heaven. 21 Even to you, who in times past were alienated and hostile in your minds because of your evil works, has been given peace, 22 Through the sacrifice of his body and his death, so that he may raise you before him, holy, and without reproach and blameless: 23 If you continue in your faith and your foundation is firm, and if you are not moved from the hope of the gospel, which you have heard, and which has been preached to every creature which is under heaven and for which I, Paul, have become a minister; 24 And now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and make up that which is lacking of the sufferings of Christ in my flesh for his bodyÆs sake, which is the church: 25 For which I became a minister, according to the dispensation of God which has been given to me for you, fully to preach the word of God everywhere; 26 Even the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now is revealed to his saints: 27 To whom God wanted to make known the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ among you, the hope of our glory; 28 Him we preach, and teach, and make known to every man in all wisdom, that we may bring up every man perfect through Jesus Christ; 29 And to this end, I labour and strive through the help of the power which is given to me.
CLV(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, through the will of God, and brother Timothy, 2 to the saints and believing brethren in Christ in Colosse: Grace to you and peace from God, our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ." 3 We are thanking the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying concerning you, 4 on hearing of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love which you have for all the saints, 5 because of the expectation reserved for you in the heavens, which you hear before in the word of truth of the evangel, 6 which, being present with you, according as in the entire world also, is bearing fruit and growing, according as it is among you also, from the day on which you hear and realized the grace of God in truth, 7 according as you learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow slave, who is a faithful dispenser of Christ for us, 8 who makes evident also to us your love in spirit. 9 Therefore we also, from the day on which we hear, do not cease praying for you and requesting that you may be filled full with the realization of His will, in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, 10 you to walk worthily of the Lord for all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and growing in the realization of God;" 11 being endued with all power, in accord with the might of His glory, for all endurance and patience with joy;" 12 at the same time giving thanks to the Father, Who makes you competent for a part of the allotment of the saints, in light, 13 Who rescues us out of the jurisdiction of Darkness, and transports us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in Whom we are having deliverance, the pardon of sins, 15 Who is the Image of the invisible God, Firstborn of every creature, 16 for in Him is all created, that in the heavens and that on the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones, or lordships, or sovereignties, or authorities, all is created through Him and for Him, 17 and He is before all, and all has its cohesion in Him." 18 And He is the Head of the body, the ecclesia, Who is Sovereign, Firstborn from among the dead, that in all He may be becoming first, 19 for in Him the entire complement delights to dwell, 20 and through Him to reconcile all to Him (making peace through the blood of His cross), through Him, whether those on the earth or those in the heavens." 21 And you, being once estranged and enemies in comprehension, by wicked acts, yet now He reconciles" 22 by His body of flesh, through His death, to present you holy and flawless and unimpeachable in His sight, 23 since surely you are persisting in the faith, grounded and settled and are not being removed from the expectation of the evangel which you hear which is being heralded in the entire creation which is under heaven of which I, Paul, became the dispenser." 24 I am now rejoicing in my sufferings for you, and am filling up in my flesh, in His stead, the deficiencies of the afflictions of Christ, for His body, which is the ecclesia" 25 of which I became a dispenser, in accord with the administration of God, which is granted to me for you, to complete the word of God -" 26 the secret which has been concealed from the eons and from the generations, yet now was made manifest to His saints, 27 to whom God wills to make known what are the glorious riches of this secret among the nations, which is: Christ among you, the expectation of glory" 28 Whom we are announcing, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we should be presenting every man mature in Chist Jesus;" 29 for which I am toiling also, struggling in accord with His operation, which is operating in me with power."
Williams(i) 1 Paul, by God's will an apostle of Christ Jesus, and our brother Timothy, 2 to the consecrated and faithful brothers at Colossae who are in union with Christ: spiritual blessing and peace to you from God our Father. 3 Every time we pray for you we thank God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of your love for all God's people, 5 because of your hope of what is laid up for you in heaven. Long ago you heard of this hope through the message of the good news 6 which reached you, and since it is bearing fruit and growing among you, just as it is all over the world, from the day you first heard of God's favor and in reality came to know it, 7 as you learned it from Epaphras, our dearly loved fellow-slave. As a faithful minister of Christ for me 8 he is the very one who told me of the love awakened in you by the Spirit. 9 This is why, ever since I heard of it, I have never ceased praying for you and asking God to fill you, through full wisdom and spiritual insight, with a clear knowledge of His will, 10 so that you may lead lives worthy of the Lord to His full satisfaction, by perennially bearing fruit in every good enterprise and by a steady growth in fuller knowledge of God; 11 then you will be perfectly empowered by His glorious might for every sort of joyous endurance and forbearance, 12 and you will always be thanking the Father who has qualified you to share the lot of His people in the realm of light. 13 It is God who has delivered us out of the dominion of darkness and has transferred us into the kingdom of His dearly loved Son, 14 by whom we possess the ransom from captivity, which means the forgiveness of our sins. 15 Yes, He is the exact likeness of the unseen God, His first-born Son who existed before any created thing, 16 for it was through Him that everything was created in heaven and on earth, the seen and the unseen, thrones, dominions, principalities, authorities; all things have been created through Him and for Him. 17 So He existed before all things, and through Him all things are held together. 18 Yes, He is the Head of the church as His body. For He is the beginning, the first-born among the dead, so that He alone should stand first in everything. 19 It is so because it was the divine choice that all the divine fullness should dwell in Him, 20 and that through Him He might reconcile to Himself all things on earth or in heaven, making this peace through the blood He shed On His cross. 21 So you, who were once estranged from Him, and hostile in disposition as shown by your wrongdoings, He has now reconciled 22 by His death in His human body, so as to present you consecrated, faultless, and blameless in His presence, 23 if indeed you continue well grounded and firm in faith and never shift from the hope inspired by the good news you heard, which has been preached all over the world, and of which I, Paul, have been made a minister. 24 I am now glad to be suffering for you, and in my own person I am filling in what is lacking in Christ's sufferings for His body, that is, the church. 25 In it I have been made a minister in accordance with the trusteeship God entrusted to me for you, that I might prove among you the universal message of God, 26 the open secret, covered up from the people of former ages and generations, but now uncovered to God's people, 27 to whom God has chosen to make known how glorious are the riches of this open secret among the heathen, namely, Christ in you the hope of your glorification. 28 We are proclaiming Him, warning everyone and teaching everyone with ample wisdom, in order to present to God everyone mature through union with Christ. 29 For this I am toiling and struggling by His active energy which is mightily working in me.
BBE(i) 1 Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, by the purpose of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 To the saints and true brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father. 3 We give praise to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, making prayer for you at all times, 4 After hearing of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which you have for all the saints, 5 Through the hope which is in store for you in heaven; knowledge of which was given to you before in the true word of the good news, 6 Which has come to you; and which in all the world is giving fruit and increase, as it has done in you from the day when it came to your ears and you had true knowledge of the grace of God; 7 As it was given to you by Epaphras, our well-loved helper, who is a true servant of Christ for us, 8 And who, himself, made clear to us your love in the Spirit. 9 For this reason, we, from the day when we had word of it, keep on in prayer for you, that you may be full of the knowledge of his purpose, with all wisdom and experience of the Spirit, 10 Living uprightly in the approval of the Lord, giving fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 Full of strength in the measure of the great power of his glory, so that you may undergo all troubles with joy; 12 Giving praise to the Father who has given us a part in the heritage of the saints in light; 13 Who has made us free from the power of evil and given us a place in the kingdom of the Son of his love; 14 In whom we have our salvation, the forgiveness of sins: 15 Who is the image of the unseen God coming into existence before all living things; 16 For by him all things were made, in heaven and on earth, things seen and things unseen, authorities, lords, rulers, and powers; all things were made by him and for him; 17 He is before all things, and in him all things have being. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church: the starting point of all things, the first to come again from the dead; so that in all things he might have the chief place. 19 For God in full measure was pleased to be in him; 20 Through him uniting all things with himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross; through him, I say, uniting all things which are on earth or in heaven. 21 And you, who in the past were cut off and at war with God in your minds through evil works, he has now made one 22 In the body of his flesh through death, so that you might be holy and without sin and free from all evil before him: 23 If you keep yourselves safely based in the faith, not moved from the hope of the good news which came to you, and which was given to every living being under heaven; of which I, Paul, was made a servant. 24 Now I have joy in my pain because of you, and in my flesh I undergo whatever is still needed to make the sorrows of Christ complete, for the salvation of his body, the church; 25 Of which I became a servant by the purpose of God which was given to me for you, to give effect to the word of God, 26 The secret which has been kept from all times and generations, but has now been made clear to his saints, 27 To whom God was pleased to give knowledge of the wealth of the glory of this secret among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: 28 Whom we are preaching; guiding and teaching every man in all wisdom, so that every man may be complete in Christ; 29 And for this purpose I am working, using all my strength by the help of his power which is working in me strongly.

AUV(i) 1 [This letter is from] Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by God’s will, and [from] our brother Timothy, 2 [and is being sent] to the saints [i.e., God’s holy people] and faithful brothers in [fellowship with] Christ [who live] at Colosse. May you have unearned favor and peace from God our Father. 3 Whenever we pray for you, we always thank God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 4 for we have heard about [the evidence of] your faith in [the service of] Christ Jesus, and about the love you have [shown] for all the saints. 5 [You have these qualities] because of the hope stored up for you in heaven, which [hope] you previously heard about through the message of truth when the Gospel 6 came to you. This Gospel is [now] also producing fruit all over the world [i.e., throughout the Roman Empire] and growing [in its influence], just as it is doing among you people also, since the day you [first] heard and understood God’s unearned favor in [all its] truth. 7 You learned [this truth] from Epaphras, our dearly loved fellow-slave, who is a faithful minister of Christ [to you] on our behalf. 8 He also told us about your love, [which is produced] by the Holy Spirit. 9 So, this is why, since the day we heard about these things, we do not stop praying for you and requesting that you people be filled [by God] with the knowledge of what He wants [for your lives], and with spiritual wisdom and understanding. 10 [We pray for you] to live a life deserving of the Lord, pleasing to Him in every way, producing fruit in every good deed and growing in the knowledge of God. 11 [We also pray that you will be] strengthened with great power, according to God’s glorious might, so that you will have great endurance and patience [coupled] with joy. 12 [May you] give thanks to the Father who has enabled you to share [i.e., eventually] in the inheritance of the saints [i.e., God’s holy people] in [the kingdom of] light. 13 He rescued us from the domain of [spiritual] darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son whom He loves, 14 through whom we receive redemption [i.e., are bought back from Satan], which is the forgiveness of [our] sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn One [i.e., who takes preeminence] over all that is created. 16 For all things were created by Him; things in heaven and on earth; things visible and invisible, whether they are thrones [i.e., reigning beings], or lords, or rulers or authorities. [Note: “Authorities” here may refer to angelic beings]. All things were created by Him and for Him. 17 And He existed before all things and all things are held together by Him. 18 And He is the head of the [spiritual] body, the church. He is [its] source, the firstborn One from the dead [i.e., the first one to return to life, never to die again], so that He could rank first [in importance] over all things. 19 For God was very pleased to have all of [His] fullness dwell in Christ [See 2:9], 20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, whether things on earth or things in heaven. He made peace [with mankind] through the [sacrificial] blood of Christ’s [death on the] cross. 21 And though you were once estranged [from God] and were enemies [of His] in your mind because of your evil deeds, 22 yet now God has reconciled [you] to Himself through the death of Christ’s physical body in order to present you holy, without fault and free from just blame before Him [on judgment day]. 23 [This will happen] if you continue in the faith [Note: This means either “continue to observe God’s teaching” or, “continue to believe”], firmly grounded and established, and not moved away from the hope offered by the Gospel message, which you have heard and which was preached to people throughout the entire created world under heaven. I, Paul, was made a minister of this Gospel. 24 Now I rejoice in [spite of] my sufferings for your sake, and I am filling up [i.e., completing] in my physical body what was lacking in the afflictions Christ endured for His body’s sake, the church. 25 I was made a minister of the church according to the task given to me by God to fully present His message to you. 26 [This message is] the secret which has been kept hidden throughout the ages and generations, but has now been revealed to God’s saints [i.e., His holy people]. 27 He was pleased to make known to these people the wealth of His splendor among the Gentiles; this hidden secret, which is Christ among you, [is] the hope of being honored [i.e., in heaven]. 28 We proclaim Him, warning and teaching every person with all wisdom, so that we may present every person [to God] complete in [their fellowship with] Christ. 29 This is the reason that I work hard and struggle also, using God’s mighty power which is at work in me.

ACV(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timothy the brother, 2 to the holy and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying about you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and the love toward all the sanctified, 5 because of the hope being reserved for you in the heavens, which ye heard before in the word of the truth of the good news 6 being present for you, just as also in all the world. And it is bearing fruit and increasing, just as also among you from the day that ye heard and recognized the grace of God in truth. 7 Just as also ye learned from Epaphras our beloved fellow bondman, who is a faithful helper of the Christ for you, 8 the man who also made clear to us your love in spirit. 9 Because of this we also, from the day that we heard, cease not praying for you and making request that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. 10 For you to walk worthily of the Lord for every desire to please, bearing fruit in every good work, and growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened in every ability, according to the dominion of his glory, for all perseverance and longsuffering with joy. 12 Giving thanks to the Father who made us qualified for the share of the portion of the sanctified in light. 13 Who rescued us out of the power of darkness, and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of his love, 14 in whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, 15 who is an image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 Because in him all things were created, things in the heavens and things upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or lordships or principal offices or positions of authority, all things have been created through him, and for him. 17 And he is before all, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he might become preeminent in all things. 19 Because in him it was considered good for all the fullness 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 upon the earth or things in the heavens. 21 And you, being formerly alienated and hostile in mind, in works, in things evil. But now he has reconciled 22 in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblemished and unblameable before him. 23 If ye truly continue in the faith, founded, and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the good news that ye heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I Paul became a helper. 24 I now rejoice in sufferings for you, and make complete in my flesh things lacking of the afflictions of the Christ for his body, which is the church. 25 Of which I became a helper according to the administration of God, which was given to me for you to fulfill the word of God, 26 the mystery that was hidden from the ages and from the generations, but has now been made known to his sanctified. 27 To whom God wanted to make known what is the wealth of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 28 Whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, so that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus. 29 For which also I labor, striving according to his working, which works in me with power.
Common(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are at Colossae: grace to you and peace from God our Father. 3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, 4 because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have for all the saints, 5 because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel 6 which has come to you, just as in all the world it is bearing fruit and growing, even as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and understood the grace of God in truth; 7 as you learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf, 8 and who also told us of your love in the Spirit. 9 For this reason also, since the day we heard it, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so that you will live a life worthy of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. 11 May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authoritiesall things were created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he might have the first place in everything. 19 For all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell in him 20 and through him, to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through the blood of his cross. 21 And although you were once alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, 22 yet he has now reconciled you in his fleshly body through death, in order to present you before him holy and blameless and beyond reproach 23 if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I do my share for the sake of his body, which is the church, in filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions. 25 Of this church I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known, 26 the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the saints. 27 To them God willed to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 28 We proclaim him, admonishing every man and teaching every man with all wisdom, so that we may present every man complete in Christ. 29 For this end I labor, striving with all his energy, which so mightily works within me.

NHEB(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father. 3 We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which you have toward all the saints, 5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the word of truth, the Good News, 6 which has come to you; even as it is in all the world and is bearing fruit and growing, as it does in you also, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth; 7 even as you learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf, 8 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit. 9 For this cause, we also, since the day we heard this, do not cease praying and making requests for you, that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in every way, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, for all endurance and perseverance with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light; 13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and transferred us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love; 14 in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins; 15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by him all things were created, in the heavens and on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities; all things have been created by him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things are held together. 18 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. 19 For all the fullness was pleased to dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, making peace through the blood of his cross through him, whether things on the earth or things in heaven. 21 You, who once were alienated and were hostile in your minds, doing evil deeds, 22 yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and blameless before him, 23 if it is so that you continue in the faith, established and firm, and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard, which is being proclaimed in all creation under heaven; of which I, Paul, have become a servant. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and I am completing in my flesh what is lacking in the sufferings of Christ for the sake of his body, which is the church; 25 of which I was made a servant, according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you, to fulfill the word of God, 26 the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to his saints, 27 to them God was pleased to make known the glorious riches of this mystery among the non-Jews, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory; 28 whom we proclaim, admonishing everyone and teaching everyone all wisdom, that we may present everyone perfect in Christ Jesus; 29 for which I also labor, struggling according to his power, which works in me mightily.

  3 G2168 We give thanks G2316 to God G3962 and the Father G2962 of our Lord G2424 Jesus G5547 Christ, G4336 praying G3842 always for you,
  4 G191 Since we heard G5216 of your G4102 faith G5547 in Christ G2424 Jesus, G26 and of the love G3588 which G3956 you have to all G40 the saints,
  5 G1680 For the hope G3588 which G606 is laid G3772 up for you in heaven, G3739 whereof G4257 you heard G4257 before G3056 in the word G226 of the truth G2098 of the gospel;
  6 G3588 Which G3918 is come G3956 to you, as it is in all G2889 the world; G2592 and brings G1901 forth G2592 fruit, G2532 as it does also G575 in you, since G2250 the day G191 you heard G1921 of it, and knew G5485 the grace G2316 of God G226 in truth:
  7 G2532 As you also G3129 learned G1889 of Epaphras G27 our dear G4889 fellow servant, G3739 who G4103 is for you a faithful G1249 minister G5547 of Christ;

  12 G2168 Giving thanks G3962 to the Father, G3588 which G2427 has made G2427 us meet G3310 to be partakers G2819 of the inheritance G40 of the saints G5457 in light:
  13 G3739 Who G4506 has delivered G1849 us from the power G4655 of darkness, G3179 and has translated G1519 us into G932 the kingdom G26 of his dear G5207 Son:
  14 G3739 In whom G2192 we have G629 redemption G1223 through G129 his blood, G859 even the forgiveness G266 of sins:
  15 G3739 Who G1504 is the image G517 of the invisible G2316 God, G4416 the firstborn G3956 of every G2937 creature:
  16 G3956 For by him were all G2936 things created, G3772 that are in heaven, G1093 and that are in earth, G3707 visible G517 and invisible, G1535 whether G2362 they be thrones, G1535 or G2963 dominions, G1535 or G746 principalities, G1535 or G1849 powers: G3956 all G2936 things were created by him, and for him:
  17 G4253 And he is before G3956 all G3956 things, and by him all G4921 things consist.
  18 G2776 And he is the head G4983 of the body, G1577 the church: G3739 who G746 is the beginning, G4416 the firstborn G3498 from the dead; G3956 that in all G4409 things he might have the preeminence.
  19 G2106 For it pleased G3956 the Father that in him should all G4138 fullness G2730 dwell;

  21 G4218 And you, that were sometime G526 alienated G2190 and enemies G3588 in your G1271 mind G4190 by wicked G2041 works, G1161 yet G3570 now G604 has he reconciled

  23 G1489 If G1961 you continue G4102 in the faith G2311 grounded G1476 and settled, G3334 and be not moved G3334 away G1680 from the hope G2098 of the gospel, G191 which you have heard, G3739 and which G2784 was preached G3956 to every G2937 creature G5259 which is under G3772 heaven; G3739 whereof G3972 I Paul G1096 am made G1249 a minister;

  26 G3466 Even the mystery G3588 which G614 has been hid G165 from ages G1074 and from generations, G3570 but now G5319 is made G5319 manifest G40 to his saints:
  27 G3739 To whom G2316 God G2309 would G1107 make G1107 known G5101 what G4149 is the riches G1391 of the glory G5127 of this G3466 mystery G1722 among G1484 the Gentiles; G3739 which G5547 is Christ G1680 in you, the hope G1391 of glory:

In all the world it brings forth fruit and grows, as it does also in you, since the day you heard of it, and understood the grace of God in truth: 7 As you learned it from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf; 8 Who has also declared to us your love in the Spirit. 9 For this reason, since the day we heard it, we do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 That you might walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please him in all things, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 Strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, with all endurance and patience with joyfulness; 12 Giving thanks to the Father, who has made us qualified to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light. 13 He has delivered us from the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation: 16 For by him were all things created that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or rulers, or authorities: all things were created by him, and for him: 17 And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 He is also the head of the body, the church: he is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have preeminence. 19 For it pleased the Father, that all his fulness should dwell in him; 20 And through him to reconcile all things to himself, whether things on earth, or things in heaven; having made peace through the blood of his cross. 21 And you who were at one time alienated and enemies in your minds because of wicked deeds, 22 He has now reconciled in his body of flesh through death, to present you holy and blameless and irreproachable in his sight: 23 If you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you have heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven; and of which I, Paul, was made a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh that which is lacking in the afflictions of Christ for his body's sake, which is the church: 25 Of which I was made a minister, according to the commission of God, which was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known; 26 That is, the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but has now been made manifest to his saints; 27 To whom God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the riches of the glory of this mystery; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 28 Him we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus. 29 For this I labour, striving according to his power, which works mightily within me.

  7 G2531 As G3129 you G2532 also G3129 learned G575 of G1889 Epaphras G2257 our G27 dear G4889 fellowservant, G3739 who G2076 is G5228 for G5216 you G4103 a faithful G1249 minister G5547 of Christ;

  13 G3739 Who G4506 has delivered G2248 us G1537 from G1849 the power G4655 of darkness, G2532 and G3179 has translated G1519 us into G932 the kingdom G846 of his G26 dear G5207 Son:
  14 G1722 In G3739 whom G2192 we have G629 redemption G1223 through G846 his G129 blood, G859 even the forgiveness G266 of sins:
  15 G3739 Who G2076 is G1504 the image G517 of the invisible G2316 God, G4416 the firstborn G3956 of every G2937 creature:
  16 G3754 For G1722 by G846 him G2936 were G3956 all things G2936 created, G3588 that are G1722 in G3772 heaven, G2532 and G3588 that are G1909 in G1093 earth, G3707 visible G2532 and G517 invisible, G1535 whether G2362 they be thrones, G1535 or G2963 dominions, G1535 or G746 principalities, G1535 or G1849 powers: G3956 all things G2936 were created G1223 by G846 him, G2532 and G1519 for G846 him:
  17 G2532 And G846 he G2076 is G4253 before G3956 all things, G2532 and G1722 by G846 him G3956 all things G4921 consist.

  19 G3754 For G2106 it pleased G1722 the Father that in G846 him G2730 should G3956 all G4138 fullness G2730 live;
  20 G2532 And, G1517 having made peace G1223 through G129 the blood G846 of his G4716 cross, G1223 by G846 him G604 to reconcile G3956 all things G1519 unto G846 himself; G1223 by G846 him, G1535 I say, whether G3588 they be things G1909 in G1093 earth, G1535 or G3588 things G1722 in G3772 heaven.

  26 G3466 Even the mystery G613 which has been hidden G575 for G165 ages G2532 and G575 for G1074 generations, G1161 but G3570 now G5319 is made manifest G40 to G846 his G40 saints:
  27 G3739 To whom G2316 God G2309 would G1107 make known G5101 what G4149 is the riches G1391 of the glory G5127 of this G3466 mystery G1722 among G1484 the Gentiles; G3739 which G2076 is G5547 Christ G1722 in G5213 you, G1680 the hope G1391 of glory:

RYLT(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother, 2 to the saints in Colossae, and to the faithful brethren in Christ: Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ! 3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying for you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love that is to all the saints, 5 because of the hope that is laid up for you in the heavens, which you heard of before in the word of the truth of the good news, 6 which is present to you, as also in all the world, and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day in which you heard, and knew the grace of God in truth; 7 as you also learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-servant, who is for you a faithful minister of the Christ, 8 who also did declare to us your love in the Spirit. 9 Because of this, we also, from the day in which we heard, do not cease praying for you, and asking that you may be filled with the full knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, 10 to your walking worthily of the Lord to all pleasing, in every good work being fruitful, and increasing to the knowledge of God, 11 in all might being made mighty according to the power of His glory, to all endurance and long-suffering with joy. 12 Giving thanks to the Father who did make us meet for the participation of the inheritance of the saints in the light, 13 who did rescue us out of the authority of the darkness, and did translate us into the reign of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of the sins, 15 who is the image of the invisible God, first-born of all creation, 16 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 thing s through him, and for him, have been created, 17 and himself is before all, and the all things in him have consisted. 18 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, 19 because in him it did please all the fulness to tabernacle, 20 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. 21 And you -- once being alienated, and enemies in the mind, in the evil works, yet now did he reconcile, 22 in the body of his flesh through the death, to present you holy, and unblemished, and unblameable before himself, 23 if also you remain in the faith, being founded and settled, and not moved away from the hope of the good news, which you heard, which was preached in all the creation that is under the heaven, of which I became -- I Paul -- a minister. 24 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, 25 of which I -- I did become a minister according to the dispensation of God, that was given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God, 26 the secret that has been hid from the ages and from the generations, but now was manifested to his saints, 27 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, 28 whom we proclaim, warning every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus, 29 for which also I labour, striving according to his working that is working in me in power.
EJ2000(i) 1 ¶ Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are at Colosse: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 ¶ We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you 4 since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the charity which ye have toward all the saints, 5 for the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which ye have already heard by the word of the truth of the gospel, 6 which is come unto you, as it is in all the world, and brings forth fruit, as it does also in you, since the day ye heard it and knew the grace of God in truth, 7 as ye also learned of Epaphras, our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ, 8 who also declared unto us your charity in the Spirit. 9 ¶ For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, asking that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, 10 that ye might walk worthy of the Lord, pleasing him in everything, being fruitful in every good work, and growing in the knowledge of God, 11 strengthened with all might, according to the power of his glory unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness, 12 ¶ giving thanks unto the Father, who has made us worthy to participate in the inheritance of the saints in light, 13 who has delivered us from the power of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son, 14 in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the remission of sins, 15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature; 16 for by him were all things created, that are in the heavens and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they are thrones or dominions or principalities or powers: all things were created by him and in him; 17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 18 And he is the head of the body, the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones}, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he might have the preeminence. 19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell 20 and by him to reconcile all things unto himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross {Gr. stauros – stake}, whether they are the things in the earth or the things in the heavens. 21 And you, that were in another time alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now he has reconciled you 22 in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight 23 if ye continue in the faith grounded and settled and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard and which is preached to every creature which is under heaven, of which I Paul am made a minister, 24 who now rejoice in my sufferings for you and fulfill in my flesh that which is lacking of the tribulations of the Christ for his body’s sake, which is the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones}, 25 of which I am made a minister by the dispensation of God which is given to me in you, to fulfil the word of God, 26 even the mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints, 27 to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery in the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory, 28 whom we preach, warning every man and teaching in all wisdom that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus, 29 in which I continue to labour, contending according to his operation, which he works in me mightily.
CAB(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ in Colosse: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, 4 when we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and your love which is towards all the saints; 5 because of the hope being laid up for you in the heavens, in which you heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel, 6 which has come to you, just as also in all the world, and is bearing fruit and growing, just as also among you, from the day which you heard and fully knew the grace of God in truth; 7 just as also you learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ for you, 8 who also told us of your love in the Spirit. 9 On account of this we also, since the day we heard, do not cease praying for you, and asking that you may be filled with the full knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 that you should walk worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit and increasing in the full knowledge of God; 11 being strengthened with all power, according to the might of His glory, for all endurance and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has delivered us from the dominion of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation, 16 because by Him all things were created, those in the heavens and those on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things are held together. 18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that in all things He may have the preeminence, 19 For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, 20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on the earth or things in the heavens, having made peace through the blood of His cross. 21 And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled 22 in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach before Him-- 23 if indeed you continue in the faith, having been founded and firm and not drifting away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was proclaimed to all creation under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister. 24 I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for His body, which is the church, 25 of which I became a minister according to the stewardship of God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God, 26 the mystery which has been hidden from the ages and from generations, but now was revealed to His saints. 27 To whom God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory; 28 whom we proclaim, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus; 29 for which I also labor, striving according to His working which is working in me with power.
WPNT(i) 1 Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and brother Timothy, 2 to the holy and faithful brothers in Christ at Colosse: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 We always give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ when we pray for you 4 (having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and your love toward all the saints), 5 because of the hope that is being reserved for you in the heavens, of which you have already heard through the Word of the Truth 6 (the Gospel that has come to you just as also in all the world, where it is producing fruit and growing just as also among you, from the day in which you heard about and truly understood God’s grace), 7 even as you learned from Epaphras, our dear fellow slave, who is a faithful servant of Christ on your behalf, 8 who also reported to us your love in the Spirit. 9 For this very reason, since the day we heard of it, we have not stopped praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the real knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, 10 in order for you to walk worthily of the Lord, pleasing Him in every way, being fruitful in every good work and growing into the real knowledge of God; 11 being enabled with all capability according to the strength that resides in His glory, for all endurance and steadfastness. 12 Nor have we stopped giving thanks joyfully to the Father who has qualified us for the share in the inheritance of the saints in the Light; 13 who delivered us out of the dominion of the darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have the redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our sins. 15 He is the visible representation of the invisible God, ‘Firstborn’ over all creation, 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. 21 So now He has reconciled you as well (you who once were alienated and hostile in your mind because of your wicked works), 22 by His physical body through His death, so as to present you before Him holy and blameless and above reproach — 23 if, that is, you continue in the faith established and firm, not drifting away from the hope of the Gospel, that you heard and that was proclaimed in all the creation under the heaven, of which I, Paul, became a servant. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings on your behalf and supplement in my flesh the things lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the Church, 25 of which I became a servant according to the stewardship from God that was given to me towards you, to complete the Word of God, 26 the mystery that has been hidden from past ages and generations, but now has been revealed to His saints; 27 to whom God resolved to make known who is the wealth of the glory of this mystery among the nations, namely Christ in you, the hope of glory; 28 whom we proclaim, warning every man and teaching every man with all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ. 29 It is to this end that I labor, striving according to His working that works through me with power.
JMNT(i) 1 Paul, one sent with a mission pertaining to Christ Jesus (or: an envoy of [the] Anointed Jesus; an emissary who has his origin in Christ Jesus) through God's will, and Timothy, the brother (or: = fellow believer; or: the brother Timothy), 2 To the set-apart folks (the holy ones; the sacredly different people) within Colossae – even to ones full of faith (or: to faithful and trusting people) – to [the] brothers within Christ (or: and to loyal fellow believers [who are] in union with [the] Anointed [other MSS add: Jesus]): Grace and joyous favor (or: The act that produces happiness, which was granted [to all] as a favor), as well as peace and harmony [= shalom], to you folks from God our Father [other MSS read: from God, our Father and Lord, Jesus Christ]. 3 We habitually express gratitude for the goodness in grace, and give thanks to God, the Father [other MSS: to the God and Father] of our Lord, Jesus Christ, at all times continually thinking and speaking goodness and well-being concerning (or: praying about) you folks, 4 upon hearing of your faith, loyalty and trust [being, resident, or having its source] within Christ Jesus (or: in union with [the] Anointed Jesus) and the love which you folks habitually have and hold [which is extended and given] into all the set-apart folks (or: holy ones; saints; sacred people) 5 because of the expectation (or: expectant hope) – the one continuously lying stored away as a reserve – resident within the atmospheres (or: heavens), which you folks already heard (or: heard before) within the word (message; discourse; or: Logos) concerning the Truth (or: the word of truth; the idea belonging to and having its source in Reality; the message which is truth and reality) which originates in and pertains to the message of ease, goodness and well-being (or: which belongs to the good news). 6 This [Word; Logos] is being continuously present alongside [and proceeding] into you folks, just as it is also continuously existing within all the ordered System (within the entire world of culture, secular society, religion, economics and government; or: in the entire universe; or: = the entire Roman Empire), repeatedly bearing fruit of itself and constantly being grown and caused to be increasing, just as also within you folks, from [the] day in which you heard and at once fully experienced – in intimate knowing and accurate realization – the grace of God, within Truth (or: God's favor resident within [the] truth; God's grace in the midst of reality; or: the favor which, in reality, is God). 7 Just in this way, you folks [were taught and] learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow-slave, who is full of faith and loyal, an attending servant of the Christ on our [other MSS: your] behalf (or: who is a faithful dispenser of the Christ [who is] over us [or: you folks]), 8 the person also clearly showing and making evident to us your love in spirit and attitude (or: your love within [the] Breath-effect; your love in union with [the] Spirit). 9 And because of this (or: So that is why) we, from the day on which we heard, are not ceasing constant praying (thinking and speaking toward having things being well) over your [situation] and asking (or: making a request) on behalf of you folks, to the end that you may (or: would) be filled full with the entire contents of the accurate, full, experiential, intimate knowledge and insight of His will (His design, purpose, plan and intention; or: so that you may know and experience all that He wants you to know and experience) within the sphere of all wisdom and spiritual understanding (comprehension; a junction of that which is sent together; discernment; being able to make the pieces fit together). 10 [Thus we pray for you] to walk about worthily (i.e., to live your life with corresponding value) with regard to the Lord (the Owner; [= Yahweh or Christ]) [progressing] into all pleasing (or: into every desire to please; into the midst of entire pleasure) within every good work or virtuous action, while habitually bearing fruit and constantly being folks [that] are being progressively caused to grow and increase in the full, accurate, experiential and intimate knowledge of God (or: with God's full experience of intimate knowledge and insight; or: by the added insight and experiential knowledge which is God), 11 being continuously empowered in every ability (being ones progressively enabled within all power) corresponding to the strength of His glory (or: down from and in the sphere of the might pertaining to and having its source in His reputation or His manifestation of that which calls forth praise; or: = the strength coming from His manifested presence [= His Sh'khinah]) [leading] into every [situation of] persistent remaining under [difficulties] to humbly give patient support (or: unto all relentless endurance) and long-waiting before rushing into emotions (or: long endurance; a long time before breathing violently with passion; or: perseverance; tolerance towards others), accompanied by (or: together with) joy. 12 [We are folks who are] constantly giving thanks to the Father: the One calling you [other MSS: us] – as well as making [you; us] competent (sufficient; qualified; fit; suitable) – into the divided share of the lot of the inheritance (or: into the part and portion of the allotted possession) of the set-apart folks (or: pertaining to the holy ones; belonging to the saints; from the sacred people; which is the different-from-the-ordinary folks) within the Light; 13 He who drags us out of danger (or: rescued us) forth from out of the midst of the authority of the Darkness (from Darkness's jurisdiction and right; from existing out of gloomy shadows and obscure dimness; = the privilege of ignorance), and changes [our] position (or: transported [us], thus, giving [us] a change of standing, and transferred [us]) into the midst of the kingdom and reign of the Son of His love (or: into the midst of the sovereign influence of the Son Who has the characteristics and qualities of His accepting love; into union with the sovereign activities of the Son Whose origin is His love; or: into the sphere of the reign of the Son of the Love which is Him; into the center of the kingdom of the Son, which is His love), 14 in Whom (or: in union with [which Son]) we continuously have and hold the redemption (the release and liberation procured by payment of a ransom) [which results in] the sending away of the failures (or: the dismissal of the errors pertaining to falling short and straying to the side of the target; the flowing away of the sins; the divorce from mistakes). 15 It is [this Son] Who is the Image (portrait; the Exact Formed Likeness; the Figure and Representation; visible likeness and manifestation) of the not-seen God (or: the unable to be seen God; the invisible God), the Firstborn of all creation (or: of every creature; or: of every framing and founding; of every act of settling from a state of disorder and wildness; or: pertaining to the whole creation; or: = the Inheritor of all creation Who will also assume authority over and responsibility for every creature [note: this is the duty of the firstborn]), 16 because within Him was created the whole (or: in union with Him everything is founded and settled, is built and planted, is brought into being, is produced and established; or: within the midst of Him all things were brought from chaos into order) – the things within the skies and atmospheres, and the things upon the earth (or: those [situations, conditions and/or people] in the heavens and on the land); the visible things, and the unseen (or: unable to be seen; invisible) things: whether thrones (seats of power) or lordships (ownership systems) or governments (rulers; leadership systems; sovereignties) or authorities – the whole has been created and all things continue founded, put in order and stand framed through means of Him, and [proceeds, or were placed] into Him (or: = He is the agent and goal of all creation). 17 And He is before (prior to; or: maintains precedence of) all things and all people, and the whole has (or: all things have) been placed together and now continues to jointly-stand (stands cohesively; is made to have a co-standing) within the midst of and in union with Him, 18 and so He is the Head (or: Source) of the body – which is the called-out community (the ecclesia; the summoned congregation) – Who is the Beginning (or: the Ruler; the Originator and Ruling Principle; the Beginning Power and Ability of the process), a Firstborn forth from out of the midst of dead folks, to the end that He would be birthed (may come into existence; or: could come to be) within all things and in all people: He continuously holding first place (or: constantly being preeminent; or: habitually being the First One; or: continuing being the First Man [note: this phrase has in Greek literature been used as a title for a person]), 19 because WITHIN Him all – the entire contents (the result of that which fills everything; all the effect of the full measure [of things]) – delights to settle down and dwell as in a house (or: because He approved all the fullness [of all existence] to permanently reside within Him) 20 and THROUGH Him at once to transfer the all (the whole; = all of existential creation), away from a certain state to the level of another which is quite different (or: to change all things, bringing movement away from being down; to reconcile all things; to change everything from estrangement and alienation to friendship and harmony and move all), INTO Him – making (constructing; forming; creating) peace and harmony through the blood of His cross (execution stake): through Him, whether the things upon the earth (or: land) or the things within the atmospheres and heavens! 21 And so you folks, being at one time people having been alienated away (being estranged; being rendered as belonging to another; = having been put out of the family) and enemies (or: hated ones) by the divided thoughts (in the dualistic perceptions and things going through the mind in every direction) within (or: in the midst of; in union with; or: = in the performance of) the miserable deeds (gushes of wicked actions; laborious and painful works) – 22 yet now He at once reconciled (or: changed and transferred to a different state; [p46 & B read: you folks were reconciled]) within the body of His flesh (= His physical being), through His death, to place you folks alongside, down before Him and in His sight: set-apart (holy) folks and flawless (unblemished; blameless) ones, even people not accused, with nothing laid to your charge (or: unaccusable ones; unimpeachable ones; folks without reproach), 23 since in fact (or: inasmuch as) you folks are continually remaining on (or: are constantly persisting) by trust, in the faith and for loyalty, being ones having been provided with a foundation so as to continue grounded, even seated so as to be settled ones, and not people being repeatedly moved elsewhere (shifted; removed; or, as a middle: shifting yourselves) away from the expectation (or: expectant hope) pertaining to, belonging to and having its source in the message of ease, goodness and well-being of which you hear (or: heard): the [message] being heralded (announced; publicly proclaimed and preached) within all creation which is under the sky (or: heaven) – of which I, Paul, am myself come to be a herald, an emissary, and an attending servant (or: a dispenser). 24 I am at this moment continuing to rejoice within the effects of experiences and the results of my sufferings over your [situation] and on your behalf, and I am progressively filling back up in turn – so as in [His] stead to replace, supply and balance out, within my flesh (or: = with the means of my natural situation) – the deficiencies (or: results from what is lacking; effects from need) with regard to the pressures (or: from the squeezings, tribulations and tight spots) that pertain to the Anointed One (or: that belong to and affect Christ; or: from the Christ) over [the situation of] His body, which is the called-out community (which exists being the summoned-forth congregation – the ecclesia) (or: Now I am progressively filled with joy – in union with the feelings coming from passion over you folks – and am habitually filling up again, to bring balance, the effects of what is lacking, resulting from the distresses of Christ – resident within my flesh – concerning His body, which is the invited-out assembly), 25 of which I am come to be an attending servant (or: a dispenser), corresponding to (or: down from; in the sphere of) God's household administration (or: God's directives for the tasks of a household manager; the stewardship whose source is God and pertains to His house; God's economy; God's scheme and arrangement which He planned for His household) – the [detailed plan] being given by me unto you (or: to me [and infused] into you) – to fulfill God's Word (or: to make full the message pertaining to God; to make a full presentation of God's message; to deliver God's thought and idea in full; or: with a view to you fulfilling God's idea): 26 the Secret (or: sacred mystery) having been hidden away and remaining concealed away from the ages (or: from [past] eons), as well as away from the [past] generations, yet now (at the present time) is set in clear light in His set-apart folks (or: was manifested to His holy ones; is caused to be seen by His saints; is shown for what it is, for His sacred people), 27 to whom God wills (or: at one point purposed; or: intends) to make known by intimate experience, what [are] the riches of the glory of this Secret (or: the wealth which has its source in this sacred mystery's manifestation which calls forth praise) within the multitudes (among the nations; in the Gentiles; IN UNION WITH the swarms of ethnic groups), which is (or: exists being) Christ within you folks, the expectation of and from the glory (or: which is [the] Anointed in union with you people: the hope of the manifestation which calls forth praise; or: which is [the] Anointing within the midst of you folks – the expectation which is the glory), 28 Whom [other MSS: Which] we ourselves habitually proclaim down the line (or: announce in accord with the pattern), constantly putting [Him] into the minds of every person (or: human) and repeatedly teaching every person (or: human), within the sphere of all wisdom, to the intent that we may place every person (or: human) finished (mature; perfect with respect to purpose; complete; as having reached the goal of destiny) by [our] side, within and in union with Christ [other MSS add: Jesus], 29 unto which [goal] I habitually work hard (or: progressively toil on) and become weary, constantly struggling as in a contest, corresponding to (or: down from, yet on the level of) His inward working (or: energy and operation): the One continuously operating (energizing and inwardly working) within me – within power and in ability.
NSB(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the holy ones and faithful brothers in Christ that live in Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father. 3 We always pray for you, and thank God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ for you. 4 We have heard about your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love you have for all the holy ones. 5 This is because of the hope reserved for you in heaven. You heard about this hope from the word of truth, the good news. 6 It came to you even as it did. Everywhere in the entire world it bears fruit and it increases in you also, since the day you heard and knew the grace (loving-kindness) of God in truth. 7 You learned about Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf. 8 He also declared your love to us in the Spirit. 9 Since the day we heard about you, we have not ceased to pray and make request for you. We pray for you to be filled with the [intimate accurate] knowledge (discernment) (recognition) of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding. (Philippians 1:9) (John 17:3) 10 Walk worthily of God, fully pleasing him. Bear fruit in every good work, and increase in the knowledge (Greek: epignosis: full discernment, recognition) of God. 11 God will strengthen you with all power, according to the might of his glory, to all patience and longsuffering with joy. 12 Give thanks to the Father, who made us partakers of the inheritance of the holy ones in the light. 13 He rescued us from the power of darkness, and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of his love (the Son he dearly loves). 14 We have in him our redemption and the forgiveness of our sins. 15 He is the image (likeness) (representation) of the invisible God. He is the firstborn (Greek: prototokos: childbirth, offspring) of all creation. 16 All things in the heavens and upon the earth where created through him. The things visible and invisible were created through him. Whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and for him. 17 He is before all things, and through him all things originate. 18 He is the head of the body, the congregation. He is the beginning (commencement), the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence (first place). 19 It was the good pleasure of the Father that in him all the fullness should dwell. 20 And all things are reconciled through him. He made peace through the blood of his atonement (of the stake). He reconciles all things, whether things upon the earth, or things in heaven. 21 You were in the past alienated and enemies because your minds were on your evil works. 22 But he (Christ) reconciled you in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and without accusation before Him (God). 23 Provided that you continue in the faith, grounded (on the foundation) and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the good news you heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven. For this I, Paul, was made a minister. 24 I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake. I do my share in behalf of his body, the congregation, to provide what is lacking of the afflictions of Christ. 25 God gave me this stewardship to perform for your good. He has made me a servant of the congregation. It is for the task of fully proclaiming the word of God. 26 It is the secret he hid through all past ages from all human beings but has now revealed to his holy ones. 27 It was God’s will to make known his secret to the people of the nations, this rich and glorious secret that he has for people. The secret is that Christ is in union with you, which means that you will share in his glory. 28 We preach Christ to everyone. With all possible wisdom we warn and teach them in order to bring each one to God as a mature individual in union with Christ. 29 I work hard to get this done. I use the mighty strength Christ supplies. It is at work in me.

2 To: The holy and faithful brothers in Colossae who are in union with the Messiah.
May grace and peace from God our Father be yours!
3 Paul’s Prayer for the ColossiansWe give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah, praying always for you, 4 because we have heard about your faith in the Messiah Jesus and the love that you have for all the saints, 5 based on the hope laid up for you in heaven. Some time ago you heard about this hope through the word of truth, the gospel 6 that has come to you. Just as it is bearing fruit and spreading all over the world, so it has been doing among you from the day you heard it and came to know the grace of God in truth. 7 You learned about this gospel from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of the Messiah on your behalf. 8 He has told us about your love in the Spirit.
9 The Messiah is Above AllFor this reason, since the day we heard about this, we have not stopped praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the full knowledge of God’s will with respect to all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so that you might live in a manner worthy of the Lord and be fully pleasing to him as you bear fruit while doing all kinds of good things and growing in the full knowledge of God. 11 You are being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might, so that you might patiently endure everything with joy 12 and might thank the Father, who has enabled us to share in the saints’ inheritance in the light. 13 God has rescued us from the power of darkness and has brought us into the kingdom of the Son whom he loves, 14 through whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
15 The Centrality of JesusThe Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether they are kings, lords, rulers, or powers. All things have been created through him and for him. 17 He himself existed before anything else did, and he holds all things together. 18 He is also the head of the body, which is the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he himself might have first place in everything. 19 For God was pleased to have all of his divine essence inhabit him. 20 Through the Son, God also reconciled all things to himself, whether things on earth or things in heaven, thereby making peace through the blood of his cross.
21 You who were once alienated with a hostile attitude, doing evil, 22 he has now reconciled by the death of his physical body, so that he may present you holy, blameless, and without fault before him. 23 However, you must remain firmly established and steadfast in the faith, without being moved from the hope of the gospel that you heard, which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.
24 Paul’s Service in the ChurchNow I am rejoicing while suffering for you as I complete in my flesh whatever remains of the Messiah’s sufferings on behalf of his body, which is the church. 25 I became its servant as God commissioned me to work for you, so that I may complete my ministry of the word of God. 26 This secret was hidden throughout the ages and generations but has now been revealed to his saints, 27 to whom God wanted to make known the glorious riches of this secret among the gentiles—which is the Messiah in you, our glorious hope. 28 It is he whom we proclaim as we admonish and wisely teach everyone, so that we may present everyone mature in the Messiah. 29 I work hard and struggle to do this, using the energy that he powerfully provides in me.
LEB(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the saints and faithful brothers in Christ in Colossae. Grace to you and peace from God our Father. 3 We give thanks always to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ when we* pray for you, 4 since we* heard about your faith in Christ Jesus and the love that you have for all the saints, 5 because of the hope reserved for you in heaven, which you have heard about beforehand in the word of truth, the gospel, 6 that has come to you, just as also in all the world it is bearing fruit and increasing, just as also among you from the day you heard about and understood the grace of God in truth, 7 just as you learned it* from Epaphras, our dear fellow slave who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf,* 8 who also made clear to us your love in the Spirit. 9 Because of this also we, from the day we heard about it,* did not cease praying for you, and asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual insight, 10 so that you may live in a manner worthy of the Lord, ⌊to please him in all respects⌋*, bearing fruit in every good deed and increasing in the knowledge of God, 11 enabled with all power, according to his glorious might, for all steadfastness and patience with joy, 12 giving thanks to the Father who has qualified you for a share of the inheritance of the saints in light, 13 who has rescued us from the domain of darkness and transferred us* to the kingdom of the Son ⌊he loves⌋*, 14 in whom we have the redemption, the forgiveness of sins, 15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all* creation, 16 because all things in the heavens and on the earth were created by him, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers, all things were created through him and for him, 17 and he himself is before all things, and in him all things are held together, 18 and he himself is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he himself may become first in everything, 19 because he was well pleased for all the fullness to dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, by* making peace through the blood of his cross, through him, whether things on earth or things in heaven. 21 And ⌊although you were formerly alienated⌋** and enemies in attitude, because of your evil deeds, 22 but now you have been reconciled* by ⌊his physical body⌋* through death, to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him, 23 if indeed you remain in the faith, established and steadfast and not shifted away from the hope of the gospel that you heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings on behalf of you, and I fill up in my flesh what is lacking of the afflictions of Christ, on behalf of his body which is the church, 25 of which I became a minister, according to God's stewardship which was given to me for you, to complete the word of God, 26 the mystery which has been hidden from the ages and from the generations, but has now been revealed to his saints, 27 to whom God wanted to make known what is the glorious wealth of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory, 28 whom we proclaim, by* admonishing every person* and teaching every person* with all wisdom, in order that we may present every person* mature in Christ, 29 for which purpose also I labor, striving according to his working which is at work powerfully in me.

BLB(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy the brother, 2 To the saints in Colossae and faithful brothers in Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father. 3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying continually for you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love that you have toward all the saints, 5 because of the hope being laid up for you in the heavens, which you heard of before in the word of truth, the gospel, 6 the one being present unto you, just as also in all the world it is bearing fruit and increasing, just as also among you from the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth, 7 just as you learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow bond-servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on behalf of us, 8 the one also having made known to us your love in the Spirit. 9 Because of this also, we from the day we heard, do not cease praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding 10 to walk worthily of the Lord: pleasing in all, bringing forth fruit in every good work, and growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might, unto all endurance and patience with joy, 12 giving thanks to the Father, the One having qualified you for the share of the inheritance of the saints in light, 13 who has delivered us from the dominion of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation, 16 because in Him were created all things in the heavens and upon the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or lordships or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through Him and unto Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. 18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, firstborn out from the dead, so that He might be holding preeminence in all things, 19 because all the fullness was pleased to dwell in Him, 20 and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace by the blood of His cross through Him, whether the things on the earth or the things in the heavens. 21 And you, being once alienated and hostile in mind, in the evil deeds, 22 but now He has reconciled in His body of flesh through death, to present you holy and unblemished and blameless before Him, 23 if indeed you continue in the faith, established and firm, and not being moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, having been proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I Paul have become a minister. 24 Now I rejoice in the sufferings for you, and I am filling up in my flesh that which is lacking of the tribulations of Christ for His body, which is the church, 25 of which I became a minister according to the administration of God having been given me toward you, to complete the word of God, 26 the mystery having been hidden from the ages and from the generations, but now having been manifested to His saints, 27 to whom God has willed to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory, 28 whom we preach, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, so that we may present every man perfect in Christ. 29 Unto this also I toil, striving according to His energy, working in me in power.
BSB(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace and peace to you from God our Father. 3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, 4 because we have heard about your faith in Christ Jesus and your love for all the saints— 5 the faith and love proceeding from the hope stored up for you in heaven, of which you have already heard in the word of truth, the gospel 6 that has come to you. All over the world this gospel is bearing fruit and growing, just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood the grace of God. 7 You learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf, 8 and who also informed us of your love in the Spirit. 9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so that you may walk in a manner worthy of the Lord and may please Him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that you may have full endurance and patience, and joyfully 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. 18 And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning and firstborn from among the dead, so that in all things He may have preeminence. 19 For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, 20 and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through the blood of His cross. 21 Once you were alienated from God and were hostile in your minds, engaging in evil deeds. 22 But now He has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy, unblemished, and blameless in His presence— 23 if indeed you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope of the gospel you heard, which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant. 24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions for the sake of His body, which is the church. 25 I became its servant by the commission God gave me to fully proclaim to you the word of God, 26 the mystery that was hidden for ages and generations but is now revealed to His saints. 27 To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 28 We proclaim Him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ. 29 To this end I also labor, striving with all His energy working powerfully within me.

MLV(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the holy and faithful brethren in Christ who are in Colosse: grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 We are giving-thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, always praying concerning you, 4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have toward all the holy-ones, 5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard beforehand in the word of the truth of the good-news. 6 This good-news which is present for you; just-as it also is in all the world. And is bearing-fruit and growing, just-as it also does in you, from the day you heard and fully knew the grace of God in truth; 7 just-as you also learned from Epaphras our beloved fellow bondservant, who is a faithful servant of the Christ on your behalf, 8 who also indicated to us your love in the Spirit. 9 Because of this, we also do not cease praying and asking on your behalf from the day we heard it, in order that you may be filled with the full knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and intelligence, 10 for you to walk worthy of the Lord for pleasing him in everything, bearing-fruit in every good work and growing into the full knowledge of God; 11 being empowered in all power, according to the dominion of his glory, for all endurance and patience with joy, 12 giving-thanks to the Father, who made us sufficient for the part of the inheritance of the holy-ones in the light. 13 He rescued us out of the authority of darkness and transplanted us into the kingdom of the Son of his love; 14 in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins, 15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; 16 because all things were created by him, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth, the visible and invisible, whether thrones or lordships or principalities or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 And he is before all things and all things are standing in him. 18 And he is the head of the body, the congregation of believers; who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, in order that he might become foremost in all things. 19 Because it delighted God that all the fullness is to dwell in him; 20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, whether things upon the earth or things upon the heavens, having made peace through the blood of his cross, through him. 21 And you were previously alienated and were enemies in mind, in evil works, but yet he reconciled you\super\'b0 22 in the body of his flesh through his death, to present you holy and unblemished and irreproachable in his sight; 23 if you actually are remaining in the faith, having been founded and grounded and not being moved away from the hope of the good-news which you heard, which was preached in all creation which is under heaven; of which I, Paul, became a servant.
24 Now I am rejoicing in my sufferings on your behalf and I am filling up in my flesh, the things lacking of the afflictions of the Christ on behalf of his body, which is the congregation of believers; 25 of which I became a servant, according to the stewardship of God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God, 26 the mystery that has been hidden away from the ages and away from the generations, but now it has been manifested to his holy-ones. 27 To whom God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, who is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 28 The Christ whom we are proclaiming, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, in order that we should present every man complete in Christ Jesus; 29 for which I also labor, struggling according to his working, which works in power in me.
VIN(i) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 to the consecrated and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: grace and peace to you from God our Father. 3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, 4 because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have for all the saints, 5 springing from the hope that is stored up for you in heaven and that you already heard about in the word of truth, the gospel 6 that has come to you. All over the world this gospel is bearing fruit and growing, just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood the grace of God. 7 As you learned it from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf; 8 and who also told us of your love in the Spirit. 9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so that you may walk in a manner worthy of the Lord and may please Him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that you may have full endurance and patience, and joyfully 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities.

Luther1545(i) 1 Paulus, ein Apostel Jesu Christi durch den Willen Gottes, und Bruder Timotheus: 2 Den Heiligen zu Kolossä und den gläubigen Brüdern in Christo. Gnade sei mit euch und Friede von Gott, unserm Vater, und dem HERRN Jesu Christo! 3 Wir danken Gott und dem Vater unsers HERRN Jesu Christi und beten allezeit für euch, 4 nachdem wir gehöret haben von eurem Glauben an Christum Jesum und von der Liebe zu allen Heiligen, 5 um der Hoffnung willen, die euch beigelegt ist im Himmel, von welcher ihr zuvor gehöret habt durch das Wort der Wahrheit im Evangelium, 6 das zu euch kommen ist wie auch in alle Welt und ist fruchtbar wie auch in euch von dem Tage an, da ihr's gehöret habt und erkannt die Gnade Gottes in der Wahrheit. 7 Wie ihr denn gelernet habt von Epaphras, unserm lieben Mitdiener, welcher ist ein treuer Diener Christi für euch, 8 der uns auch eröffnet hat eure Liebe im Geist. 9 Derhalben auch wir von dem Tage an, da wir's gehöret haben, hören wir nicht auf, für euch zu beten und zu bitten, daß ihr erfüllet werdet mit Erkenntnis seines Willens in allerlei geistlicher Weisheit und Verstand, 10 daß ihr wandelt würdiglich dem HERRN zu allem Gefallen und fruchtbar seid in allen guten Werken 11 und wachset in der Erkenntnis Gottes und gestärket werdet mit aller Kraft nach seiner herrlichen Macht in aller Geduld und Langmütigkeit mit Freuden; 12 und danksaget dem Vater, der uns tüchtig gemacht hat zu dem Erbteil der Heiligen im Licht, 13 welcher uns errettet hat von der Obrigkeit der Finsternis und hat uns versetzt in das Reich seines lieben Sohnes, 14 an welchem wir haben die Erlösung durch sein Blut, nämlich die Vergebung der Sünden, 15 welcher ist das Ebenbild des unsichtbaren Gottes, der Erstgeborene vor allen Kreaturen. 16 Denn durch ihn ist alles geschaffen, was im Himmel und auf Erden ist, das Sichtbare und Unsichtbare, beide, die Thronen und HERRSChaften und Fürstentümer und Obrigkeiten; es ist alles durch ihn und zu ihm geschaffen. 17 Und er ist vor allen; und es bestehet alles in ihm. 18 Und er ist das Haupt des Leibes, nämlich der Gemeinde; welcher ist der Anfang und der Erstgeborene von den Toten, auf daß, er in allen Dingen den Vorrang habe. 19 Denn es ist das Wohlgefallen gewesen, daß in ihm alle Fülle wohnen sollte, 20 und alles durch ihn versöhnet würde zu ihm selbst, es sei auf Erden oder im Himmel, damit, daß er Frieden machte durch das Blut an seinem Kreuz durch sich selbst. 21 Und euch, die ihr weiland Fremde und Feinde waret durch die Vernunft in bösen Werken, 22 nun aber hat er euch versöhnet mit dem Leibe seines Fleisches durch den Tod, auf daß er euch darstellete heilig und unsträflich und ohne Tadel vor ihm selbst, 23 so ihr anders bleibet im Glauben gegründet und fest und unbeweglich von der Hoffnung des Evangeliums, welches ihr gehöret habt, welches geprediget ist unter aller Kreatur, die unter dem Himmel ist, welches ich, Paulus, Diener worden bin. 24 Nun freue ich mich in meinem Leiden, das ich für euch leide, und erstatte an meinem Fleisch, was noch mangelt an Trübsalen in Christo für seinen Leib, welcher ist die Gemeinde, 25 welcher ich ein Diener worden bin nach dem göttlichen Predigtamt, das mir gegeben ist unter euch, daß ich das Wort Gottes reichlich predigen soll, 26 nämlich das Geheimnis, das verborgen gewesen ist von der Welt her und von den Zeiten her, nun aber offenbaret ist seinen Heiligen, 27 welchen Gott gewollt hat kundtun, welcher da sei der herrliche Reichtum dieses Geheimnisses unter den Heiden, welches ist Christus in euch, der da ist die Hoffnung der HERRLIchkeit, 28 den wir verkündigen, und vermahnen alle Menschen und lehren alle Menschen mit aller Weisheit, auf daß wir darstellen einen jeglichen Menschen vollkommen in Christo Jesu, 29 daran ich auch arbeite und ringe nach der Wirkung des, der in mir kräftiglich wirket.

  27 G2316 welchen GOtt G2309 gewollt hat G1107 kundtun G3739 , welcher G1391 da sei der herrliche G4149 Reichtum G5127 dieses G3466 Geheimnisses G1722 unter G1484 den Heiden G5101 , welches G2076 ist G5547 Christus G1722 in G5213 euch G3739 , der da ist die G1680 Hoffnung G1391 der Herrlichkeit,

Luther1912(i) 1 Paulus, ein Apostel Jesu Christi durch den Willen Gottes, und Bruder Timotheus 2 den Heiligen zu Kolossä und den gläubigen Brüdern in Christo: Gnade sei mit euch und Friede von Gott, unserm Vater, und dem HERRN Jesus Christus! 3 Wir danken Gott und dem Vater unsers HERRN Jesu Christi und beten allezeit für euch, 4 nachdem wir gehört haben von eurem Glauben an Christum Jesum und von der Liebe zu allen Heiligen, 5 um der Hoffnung willen, die euch beigelegt ist im Himmel, von welcher ihr zuvor gehört habt durch das Wort der Wahrheit im Evangelium, 6 das zu euch gekommen ist, wie auch in alle Welt, und ist fruchtbar, wie auch in euch, von dem Tage an, da ihr's gehört habt und erkannt die Gnade Gottes in der Wahrheit; 7 wie ihr denn gelernt habt von Epaphras, unserm lieben Mitdiener, welcher ist ein treuer Diener Christi für euch, 8 der uns auch eröffnet hat eure Liebe im Geist. 9 Derhalben auch wir von dem Tage an, da wir's gehört haben, hören wir nicht auf, für euch zu beten und zu bitten, daß ihr erfüllt werdet mit Erkenntnis seines Willens in allerlei geistlicher Weisheit und Verständnis, 10 daß ihr wandelt würdig dem HERRN zu allem Gefallen und fruchtbar seid in allen guten Werken 11 und wachset in der Erkenntnis Gottes und gestärkt werdet mit aller Kraft nach seiner herrlichen Macht zu aller Geduld und Langmütigkeit mit Freuden, 12 und danksaget dem Vater, der uns tüchtig gemacht hat zu dem Erbteil der Heiligen im Licht; 13 welcher uns errettet hat von der Obrigkeit der Finsternis und hat uns versetzt in das Reich seines lieben Sohnes, 14 an welchem wir haben die Erlösung durch sein Blut, die Vergebung der Sünden; 15 welcher ist das Ebenbild des unsichtbaren Gottes, der Erstgeborene vor allen Kreaturen. 16 Denn durch ihn ist alles geschaffen, was im Himmel und auf Erden ist, das Sichtbare und das Unsichtbare, es seien Throne oder Herrschaften oder Fürstentümer oder Obrigkeiten; es ist alles durch ihn und zu ihm geschaffen. 17 Und er ist vor allem, und es besteht alles in ihm. 18 Und er ist das Haupt des Leibes, nämlich der Gemeinde; er, welcher ist der Anfang und der Erstgeborene von den Toten, auf daß er in allen Dingen den Vorrang habe. 19 Denn es ist das Wohlgefallen gewesen, daß in ihm alle Fülle wohnen sollte 20 und alles durch ihn versöhnt würde zu ihm selbst, es sei auf Erden oder im Himmel, damit daß er Frieden machte durch das Blut an seinem Kreuz, durch sich selbst. 21 Und euch, die ihr weiland Fremde und Feinde waret durch die Vernunft in bösen Werken, 22 hat er nun versöhnt mit dem Leibe seines Fleisches durch den Tod, auf daß er euch darstellte heilig und unsträflich und ohne Tadel vor ihm selbst; 23 so ihr anders bleibet im Glauben, gegründet und fest und unbeweglich von der Hoffnung des Evangeliums, welches ihr gehört habt, welches gepredigt ist unter aller Kreatur, die unter dem Himmel ist, dessen Diener ich, Paulus, geworden bin. 24 Nun freue ich mich in meinem Leiden, das ich für euch leide, und erstatte an meinem Fleisch, was noch mangelt an Trübsalen in Christo, für seinen Leib, welcher ist die Gemeinde, 25 deren Diener ich geworden bin nach dem göttlichen Predigtamt, das mir gegeben ist unter euch, daß ich das Wort Gottes reichlich predigen soll, 26 nämlich das Geheimnis, das verborgen gewesen ist von der Welt her und von den Zeiten her, nun aber ist es offenbart seinen Heiligen, 27 denen Gott gewollt hat kundtun, welcher da sei der herrliche Reichtum dieses Geheimnisses unter den Heiden, welches ist Christus in euch, der da ist die Hoffnung der Herrlichkeit. 28 Den verkündigen wir und vermahnen alle Menschen und lehren alle Menschen mit aller Weisheit, auf daß wir darstellen einen jeglichen Menschen vollkommen in Christo Jesu; 29 daran ich auch arbeite und ringe, nach der Wirkung des, der in mir kräftig wirkt.

[Kap. 2,9] in ihm zu wohnen 20 und durch ihn alle Dinge mit sich zu versöhnen indem O. nachdem er Frieden gemacht hat durch das Blut seines Kreuzes, durch ihn, es seien die Dinge auf der Erde oder die Dinge in den Himmeln. 21 Und euch, die ihr einst entfremdet und Feinde waret nach der Gesinnung in den bösen Werken, hat er O. sie, di. die Fülle [der Gottheit]; s. [V. 19] aber nun versöhnt 22 in dem Leibe seines Fleisches durch den Tod, um euch heilig und tadellos und unsträflich vor sich hinzustellen, 23 wenn ihr anders in dem Glauben gegründet und fest bleibet und nicht abbewegt werdet von der Hoffnung des Evangeliums, welches ihr gehört habt, das gepredigt worden in der ganzen Schöpfung, die unter dem Himmel ist, dessen Diener ich, Paulus, geworden bin. 24 Jetzt freue ich mich in den Leiden für euch und ergänze in meinem Fleische, was noch rückständig ist von den Drangsalen des Christus für seinen Leib, das ist die Versammlung, 25 deren Diener ich geworden bin nach der Verwaltung Gottes, die mir in Bezug auf euch gegeben ist, um das Wort Gottes zu vollenden: Eig. vollzumachen, auf sein Vollmaß zu bringen 26 das Geheimnis, welches von den Zeitaltern und von den Geschlechtern her verborgen war, jetzt aber seinen Heiligen geoffenbart worden ist, 27 denen Gott kundtun wollte, welches der Reichtum der Herrlichkeit dieses Geheimnisses sei unter den Nationen, welches ist Christus in euch, die Hoffnung der Herrlichkeit; 28 den wir verkündigen, indem wir jeden Menschen ermahnen und jeden Menschen lehren in aller Weisheit, auf daß wir jeden Menschen vollkommen in Christo darstellen; 29 wozu ich mich auch bemühe, indem ich kämpfend ringe gemäß seiner Wirksamkeit, die in mir wirkt in Kraft.

DSV(i) 1 Paulus, een apostel van Jezus Christus, door de wil van God, en Timotheüs, de broeder, 2 Den heiligen en gelovigen broederen in Christus, die te Kolosse zijn; genade zij u en vrede van God, onzen Vader, en den Heere Jezus Christus. 3 Wij danken den God en Vader van onzen Heere Jezus Christus, altijd voor u biddende; 4 Alzo wij van uw geloof in Christus Jezus gehoord hebben, en van de liefde, die gij hebt tot alle heiligen. 5 Om de hoop, die u weggelegd is in de hemelen, van welke gij te voren gehoord hebt, door het Woord der waarheid, namelijk des Evangelies; 6 Hetwelk tot u gekomen is, gelijk ook in de gehele wereld, en het brengt vruchten voort, gelijk ook onder u, van dien dag af dat gij gehoord hebt, en de genade Gods in waarheid bekend hebt. 7 Gelijk gij ook geleerd hebt van Epafras, onzen geliefden mededienstknecht, dewelke een getrouw dienaar van Christus is voor u; 8 Die ons ook verklaard heeft uw liefde in den Geest. 9 Waarom ook wij, van dien dag af dat wij het gehoord hebben, niet ophouden voor u te bidden en te begeren, dat gij moogt vervuld worden met de kennis van Zijn wil, in alle wijsheid en geestelijk verstand; 10 Opdat gij moogt wandelen waardiglijk den Heere, tot alle behagelijkheid, in alle goede werken vrucht dragende, en wassende in de kennis van God; 11 Met alle kracht bekrachtigd zijnde, naar de sterkte Zijner heerlijkheid, tot alle lijdzaamheid en lankmoedigheid, met blijdschap; 12 Dankende den Vader, Die ons bekwaam gemaakt heeft, om deel te hebben in de erve der heiligen in het licht; 13 Die ons getrokken heeft uit de macht der duisternis, en overgezet heeft in het Koninkrijk van den Zoon Zijner liefde; 14 In Denwelken wij de verlossing hebben door Zijn bloed, namelijk de vergeving der zonden; 15 Dewelke het Beeld is des onzienlijken Gods, de Eerstgeborene aller kreaturen. 16 Want door Hem zijn alle dingen geschapen, die in de hemelen en die op de aarde zijn, die zienlijk en die onzienlijk zijn, hetzij tronen, hetzij heerschappijen, hetzij overheden, hetzij machten; alle dingen zijn door Hem en tot Hem geschapen; 17 En Hij is voor alle dingen, en alle dingen bestaan te zamen door Hem; 18 En Hij is het Hoofd des lichaams, namelijk der Gemeente, Hij, Die het Begin is, de Eerstgeborene uit de doden, opdat Hij in allen de Eerste zou zijn. 19 Want het is des Vaders welbehagen geweest, dat in Hem al de volheid wonen zou; 20 En dat Hij, door Hem vrede gemaakt hebbende door het bloed Zijns kruises, door Hem, zeg ik, alle dingen verzoenen zou tot Zichzelven, hetzij de dingen, die op de aarde, hetzij de dingen die in de hemelen zijn. 21 En Hij heeft u, die eertijds vervreemd waart, en vijanden door het verstand in de boze werken, nu ook verzoend, 22 In het lichaam Zijns vleses, door den dood, opdat Hij u zou heilig en onberispelijk en onbeschuldiglijk voor Zich stellen; 23 Indien gij maar blijft in het geloof, gefondeerd en vast, en niet bewogen wordt van de hope des Evangelies, dat gij gehoord hebt, hetwelk gepredikt is onder al de kreature, die onder den hemel is; van hetwelk ik Paulus een dienaar geworden ben; 24 Die mij nu verblijde in mijn lijden voor u, en vervulle in mijn vlees de overblijfselen van de verdrukkingen van Christus, voor Zijn lichaam, hetwelk is de Gemeente; 25 Welker dienaar ik geworden ben, naar de bedeling van God, die mij gegeven is aan u, om te vervullen het Woord Gods; 26 Namelijk de verborgenheid, die verborgen is geweest van alle eeuwen en van alle geslachten, maar nu geopenbaard is aan Zijn heiligen; 27 Aan wie God heeft willen bekend maken, welke zij de rijkdom der heerlijkheid dezer verborgenheid onder de heidenen, welke is Christus onder u, de Hoop der heerlijkheid; 28 Denwelken wij verkondigen, vermanende een iegelijk mens, en lerende een iegelijk mens in alle wijsheid, opdat wij zouden een iegelijk mens volmaakt stellen in Christus Jezus; 29 Waartoe ik ook arbeide, strijdende naar Zijn werking, die in mij werkt met kracht.

Paul, apôtre du Christ Jésus par la volonté de Dieu, et Timothée, le frère, 2 saints et fidèles frères en Christ qui sont à Colasses: Grâce et paix à vous, de la part de Dieu notre Père et du Seigneur Jésus Christ! 3
Nous rendons grâces au Dieu et Père de notre Seigneur Jésus Christ, priant toujours pour vous, 4 ayant ouï parler de votre foi dans le Christ Jésus et de l'amour que vous avez pour tous les saints, 5 à cause de l'espérance qui vous est réservée dans les cieux et dont vous avez déjà ouï parler dans la parole de la vérité de l'évangile, 6 qui est parvenu jusqu'à vous, comme aussi il l'est dans tous le monde, et qui porte du fruit et croît, comme aussi parmi vous, depuis le jour où vous avez entendu et connu la grâce de Dieu en vérité, 7 comme vous l'avez entendue d'Épaphras, notre bien-aimé compagnon de service, qui est un fidèle serviteur du Christ pour vous, 8 qui nous a aussi fait connaître votre amour dans l'Esprit. 9
C'est pourquoi nous aussi, depuis le jour où nous en avons ouï parler, nous ne cessons pas de prier et de demander pour vous que vous soyez remplis de la connaissance de sa volonté, en toute sagesse et intelligence spirituelle, 10 pour marcher d'une manière digne du Seigneur pour lui plaire à tous égards, portant du fruit en toute bonne oeuvre, et croissant par la connaissance de Dieu: 11 étant fortifiés en toute force, selon la puissance de sa gloire, pour toute patience et constance, avec joie, 12
rendant grâces au Père qui nous a rendus capables de participer au lot des saints dans la lumière; 13 qui nous a délivrés du pouvoir des ténèbres, et nous a transportés dans le royaume du Fils de son amour, 14 en qui nous avons la rédemption, la rémission des péchés; 15 qui est l' image du Dieu invisible, le premier-né de toute la création; 16 car par lui ont été créés toutes choses, les choses qui sont dans les cieux, et les choses qui sont sur la terre, les visibles et les invisibles, soit trônes, ou seigneuries, ou principautés, ou autorités: toutes choses ont été créés par lui et pour lui; 17 et lui est avant toutes choses, et toutes choses subsistent par lui; 18 et il est le chef du corps, de l'assemblée, lui qui est le commencement, le premier-né d'entre les morts, afin qu'en toutes choses il tienne, lui, la première place; 19 car, en lui, toute la plénitude s'est plue à habiter, 20 et, par lui, à réconcilier toutes choses avec elle-même, ayant fait la paix par le sang de sa croix, par lui, soit les choses qui sont sur la terre, soit les choses qui sont dans les cieux. 21 Et vous qui étiez autrefois étrangers et ennemis quant à votre entendement, dans les mauvaises oeuvres, il vous a toutefois maintenant réconciliés 22 le corps de sa chair, par la mort, pour vous présenter saints et irréprochables et irrépréhensibles devant lui, 23 si du moins vous demeurez dans la foi, fondés et fermes, et ne vous laissant pas détourner de l'espérance de l'évangile que vous avez ouï, lequel a été prêché dans toute la création qui est sous le ciel, et duquel moi, Paul, je suis devenu serviteur. 24 Maintenant, je me réjouis dans les souffrances pour vous, et j'accomplis dans ma chair ce qui reste encore à souffrir des afflictions du Christ pour son corps qui est l'assemblée, 25 de laquelle moi je suis devenu serviteur selon l'administration de Dieu qui m'a été donnée envers vous, pour compléter la parole de Dieu, 26 savoir le mystère qui avait été caché dès les siècles et dès les générations, mais qui a été maintenant manifesté à ses saints, 27 auxquels Dieu a voulu donner à connaître quelles sont les richesses de la gloire de ce mystère parmi les nations, c'est-à-dire Christ en vous l'espérance de la gloire, 28 lequel nous annonçons, exhortant tout homme et enseignant tout homme en toute sagesse, afin que nous présentions tout homme parfait en Christ: 29 à quoi aussi je travaille, combattant selon son opération qui opère en moi avec puissance.
Martin(i) 1 Paul Apôtre de Jésus-Christ, par la volonté de Dieu, et le frère Timothée : 2 Aux Saints et frères, fidèles en Christ, qui sont à Colosses : que la grâce et la paix vous soient données de par Dieu notre Père, et de par le Seigneur Jésus-Christ. 3 Nous rendons grâces à Dieu, qui est le Père de notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, et nous prions toujours pour vous. 4 Ayant ouï parler de votre foi en Jésus-Christ, et de votre charité envers tous les Saints; 5 A cause de l'espérance des biens qui vous sont réservés dans les Cieux, et dont vous avez eu ci-devant connaissance par la parole de la vérité, c'est-à-dire, par l'Evangile. 6 Qui est parvenu jusqu'à vous, comme il l'est aussi dans tout le monde; et il y fructifie, de même que parmi vous, depuis le jour que vous avez entendu et connu la grâce de Dieu dans la vérité. 7 Comme vous avez été instruits aussi par Epaphras notre cher compagnon de service, qui est fidèle Ministre de Christ pour vous; 8 Et qui nous a appris quelle est la charité que vous avez par le Saint- Esprit. 9 C'est pourquoi depuis le jour que nous avons appris ces choses, nous ne cessons point de prier pour vous, et de demander à Dieu que vous soyez remplis de la connaissance de sa volonté, en toute sagesse et intelligence spirituelle; 10 Afin que vous vous conduisiez dignement comme il est séant selon le Seigneur, pour lui plaire à tous égards, fructifiant en toute bonne oeuvre, et croissant en la connaissance de Dieu. 11 Etant fortifiés en toute force selon la puissance de sa gloire, en toute patience, et tranquillité d'esprit, avec joie. 12 Rendant grâces au Père, qui nous a rendus capables de participer à l'héritage des Saints dans la lumière; 13 Qui nous a délivrés de la puissance des ténèbres, et nous a transportés au Royaume de son Fils bien-aimé. 14 En qui nous avons la rédemption par son sang, savoir, la rémission des péchés. 15 Lequel est l'image de Dieu invisible, le premier-né de toutes les créatures. 16 Car par lui ont été créées toutes les choses qui sont aux Cieux et en la terre, les visibles et les invisibles, soit les Trônes, ou les Dominations, ou les Principautés, ou les Puissances, toutes choses ont été créées par lui, et pour lui. 17 Et il est avant toutes choses, et toutes choses subsistent par lui. 18 Et c'est lui qui est le Chef du Corps de l'Eglise, et qui est le commencement et le premier-né d'entre les morts, afin qu'il tienne le premier rang en toutes choses. 19 Car le bon plaisir du Père a été que toute plénitude habitât en lui; 20 Et de réconcilier par lui toutes choses avec soi, ayant fait la paix par le sang de sa croix, savoir, tant les choses qui sont aux Cieux, que celles qui sont en la terre. 21 Et vous qui étiez autrefois éloignés de lui, et qui étiez ses ennemis en votre entendement, et en mauvaises oeuvres; 22 Il vous a maintenant réconciliés, par le corps de sa chair, en sa mort, pour vous rendre saints, sans tache, et irrépréhensibles devant lui. 23 Si toutefois vous demeurez en la foi, étant fondés et fermes, et n'étant point transportés hors de l'espérance de l'Evangile que vous avez ouï, lequel est prêché à toute créature qui est sous le ciel, et duquel, moi Paul, j'ai été fait le Ministre. 24 Je me réjouis donc maintenant en mes souffrances pour vous, et j'accomplis le reste des afflictions de Christ en ma chair, pour son corps, qui est l'Eglise; 25 De laquelle j'ai été fait le Ministre, selon la dispensation de Dieu qui m'a été donnée envers vous, pour accomplir la parole de Dieu; 26 Savoir le mystère qui avait été caché dans tous les siècles et dans tous les âges, mais qui est maintenant manifesté à ses Saints; 27 Auxquels Dieu a voulu donner à connaître quelles sont les richesses de la gloire de ce mystère parmi les Gentils, c'est à savoir Christ, qui a été prêché parmi vous, et qui est l'espérance de la gloire, 28 Lequel nous annonçons, en exhortant tout homme, et en enseignant tout homme en toute sagesse, afin que nous rendions tout homme parfait en Jésus-Christ. 29 A quoi aussi je travaille, en combattant selon son efficace, qui agit puissamment en moi.
Segond(i) 1 Paul, apôtre de Jésus Christ par la volonté de Dieu, et le frère Timothée, 2 aux saints et fidèles frères en Christ qui sont à Colosses; que la grâce et la paix vous soient données de la part de Dieu notre Père! 3 Nous rendons grâces à Dieu, le Père de notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, et nous ne cessons de prier pour vous, 4 ayant été informés de votre foi en Jésus-Christ et de votre charité pour tous les saints, 5 cause de l'espérance qui vous est réservée dans les cieux, et que la parole de la vérité, la parole de l'Evangile vous a précédemment fait connaître. 6 Il est au milieu de vous, et dans le monde entier; il porte des fruits, et il va grandissant, comme c'est aussi le cas parmi vous, depuis le jour où vous avez entendu et connu la grâce de Dieu conformément à la vérité, 7 d'après les instructions que vous avez reçues d'Epaphras, notre bien-aimé compagnon de service, qui est pour vous un fidèle ministre de Christ, 8 et qui nous a appris de quelle charité l'Esprit vous anime. 9 C'est pour cela que nous aussi, depuis le jour où nous en avons été informés, nous ne cessons de prier Dieu pour vous, et de demander que vous soyez remplis de la connaissance de sa volonté, en toute sagesse et intelligence spirituelle, 10 pour marcher d'une manière digne du Seigneur et lui être entièrement agréables, portant des fruits en toutes sortes de bonnes oeuvres et croissant par la connaissance de Dieu, 11 fortifiés à tous égards par sa puissance glorieuse, en sorte que vous soyez toujours et avec joie persévérants et patients. 12 Rendez grâces au Père, qui vous a rendus capables d'avoir part à l'héritage des saints dans la lumière, 13 qui nous a délivrés de la puissance des ténèbres et nous a transportés dans le royaume du Fils de son amour, 14 en qui nous avons la rédemption, la rémission des péchés. 15 Il est l'image du Dieu invisible, le premier-né de toute la création. 16 Car en lui ont été créées toutes les choses qui sont dans les cieux et sur la terre, les visibles et les invisibles, trônes, dignités, dominations, autorités. Tout a été créé par lui et pour lui. 17 Il est avant toutes choses, et toutes choses subsistent en lui. 18 Il est la tête du corps de l'Eglise; il est le commencement, le premier-né d'entre les morts, afin d'être en tout le premier. 19 Car Dieu a voulu que toute plénitude habitât en lui; 20 il a voulu par lui réconcilier tout avec lui-même, tant ce qui est sur la terre que ce qui est dans les cieux, en faisant la paix par lui, par le sang de sa croix. 21 Et vous, qui étiez autrefois étrangers et ennemis par vos pensées et par vos mauvaises oeuvres, il vous a maintenant réconciliés 22 par sa mort dans le corps de sa chair, pour vous faire paraître devant lui saints, irrépréhensibles et sans reproche, 23 si du moins vous demeurez fondés et inébranlables dans la foi, sans vous détourner de l'espérance de l'Evangile que vous avez entendu, qui a été prêché à toute créature sous le ciel, et dont moi Paul, j'ai été fait ministre. 24 Je me réjouis maintenant dans mes souffrances pour vous; et ce qui manque aux souffrances de Christ, je l'achève en ma chair, pour son corps, qui est l'Eglise. 25 C'est d'elle que j'ai été fait ministre, selon la charge que Dieu m'a donnée auprès de vous, afin que j'annonçasse pleinement la parole de Dieu, 26 le mystère caché de tout temps et dans tous les âges, mais révélé maintenant à ses saints, 27 qui Dieu a voulu faire connaître quelle est la glorieuse richesse de ce mystère parmi les païens, savoir: Christ en vous, l'espérance de la gloire. 28 C'est lui que nous annonçons, exhortant tout homme, et instruisant tout homme en toute sagesse, afin de présenter à Dieu tout homme, devenu parfait en Christ. 29 C'est à quoi je travaille, en combattant avec sa force, qui agit puissamment en moi.

RST(i) 1 Павел, волею Божиею Апостол Иисуса Христа, и Тимофейбрат, 2 находящимся в Колоссах святым и верным братиям во Христе Иисусе: 3 благодать вам и мир от Бога Отца нашего и Господа Иисуса Христа. Благодарим Бога и Отца Господа нашего Иисуса Христа, всегда молясь о вас, 4 услышав о вере вашей во Христа Иисуса и о любви ко всем святым, 5 в надежде на уготованное вам на небесах, о чем вы прежде слышали в истинном слове благовествования, 6 которое пребывает у вас, как и во всем мире, и приносит плод, и возрастает, как и между вами, с того дня, как вы услышали и познали благодать Божию в истине, 7 как и научились от Епафраса, возлюбленного сотрудника нашего, верного для вас служителя Христова, 8 который и известил нас о вашей любви в духе. 9 Посему и мы с того дня, как о сем услышали, не перестаем молиться о вас и просить, чтобы вы исполнялись познанием воли Его, во всякой премудрости и разумении духовном, 10 чтобы поступали достойно Бога, во всем угождая Ему , принося плод во всяком деле благом и возрастая в познании Бога, 11 укрепляясь всякою силою по могуществу славы Его, во всяком терпении и великодушии с радостью, 12 благодаря Бога и Отца, призвавшего нас к участию в наследии святых во свете, 13 избавившего нас от власти тьмы и введшего в Царство возлюбленного Сына Своего, 14 в Котором мы имеем искупление Кровию Его и прощение грехов, 15 Который есть образ Бога невидимого, рожденный прежде всякой твари; 16 ибо Им создано все, что на небесах и что на земле, видимое и невидимое: престолы ли, господства ли, начальства ли, власти ли, – все Им и для Него создано; 17 и Он есть прежде всего, и все Им стоит. 18 И Он есть глава тела Церкви; Он – начаток, первенециз мертвых, дабы иметь Ему во всем первенство, 19 ибо благоугодно было Отцу , чтобы в Нем обитала всякая полнота, 20 и чтобы посредством Его примирить с Собою все, умиротворив через Него, Кровию креста Его, и земное и небесное. 21 И вас, бывших некогда отчужденными и врагами, порасположению к злым делам, 22 ныне примирил в теле Плоти Его, смертью Его, чтобы представить вас святыми и непорочными и неповинными пред Собою, 23 если только пребываете тверды и непоколебимы в вере и не отпадаете от надежды благовествования, которое вы слышали, которое возвещено всей твари поднебесной, которого я, Павел, сделался служителем. 24 Ныне радуюсь в страданиях моих за вас и восполняю недостаток в плоти моей скорбей Христовых за Тело Его, которое есть Церковь, 25 которой сделался я служителем по домостроительству Божию, вверенному мне для вас, чтобы исполнить слово Божие, 26 тайну, сокрытую от веков и родов, ныне же открытую святым Его, 27 Которым благоволил Бог показать, какое богатство славы в тайне сей для язычников, которая есть Христос в вас,упование славы, 28 Которого мы проповедуем, вразумляя всякого человека и научая всякой премудрости, чтобы представить всякого человека совершенным во Христе Иисусе; 29 для чего я и тружусь и подвизаюсь силою Его, действующею во мне могущественно.

Bulgarian(i) 1 Павел, с Божията воля апостол на Иисус Христос, и брат Тимотей 2 до светите и верни братя в Христос, които са в Колос: Благодат и мир да бъде на вас от Бога, нашия Отец, (и Господ Иисус Христос). 3 Благодарим на Бога и Отца на нашия Господ Иисус Христос, като се молим винаги за вас, 4 понеже чухме за вашата вяра в Христос Иисус и за вашата любов към всичките светии, 5 заради надеждата, която се пази за вас на небесата, за която сте чули преди това в словото на истината на благовестието, 6 което дойде до вас, както е и в целия свят, и принася плод и расте, както и между вас от деня, когато чухте и познахте Божията благодат в истина, 7 което и научихте от нашия възлюбен съработник Епафрас, който е верен служител на Христос за вас; 8 който и ни извести за вашата любов в Духа. 9 Затова и ние от деня, когато чухме за това, не преставаме да се молим за вас и да молим от Бога да се изпълните с познаването на Неговата воля чрез пълна мъдрост и духовно разбиране, 10 за да живеете достойно за Господа и да Му бъдете във всичко угодни, като принасяте плод във всяко добро дело и като растете в познаването на Бога, 11 подкрепяни с пълна сила според мощта на Неговата слава, за да издържите и дълготърпите всичко с радост, 12 като благодарите на Отца, който ни направи способни да участваме в наследството на светиите в светлината, 13 който ни избави от властта на тъмнината и ни пресели в царството на Своя възлюбен Син, 14 в когото ние имаме изкупление чрез Неговата кръв, прощението на греховете. 15 Той е образ на невидимия Бог, Първородният на цялото творение; 16 защото в Него беше създадено всичко, което е на небесата и на земята, видимото и невидимото – било престоли или господства, или началства, или власти – всичко беше създадено чрез Него и за Него; 17 и Той е преди всичко и всичко чрез Него се крепи. 18 И Той е главата на тялото, тоест на църквата; Той е Началото, Първородният от мъртвите, за да има първенство във всичко. 19 Защото в Него благоволи Отец да обитава цялата пълнота 20 и чрез Него да примири със Себе Си всичко – било на земята, или на небето – като въдвори мир чрез кръвта, пролята на Неговия кръст. 21 И вас, които някога бяхте отчуждени от Него и врагове по разположение чрез злите си дела, 22 сега примири в тялото на Неговата плът чрез смъртта, за да ви представи пред Себе Си свети, непорочни и безупречни, 23 ако останете основани и твърди във вярата и без да се помръднете от надеждата на благовестието, което сте чули и което е било проповядвано в цялото творение под небесата, на което аз, Павел, станах служител. 24 И сега се радвам в страданията си за вас и допълвам в плътта си това, което още не достига на скърбите на Христос за Неговото тяло, което е църквата, 25 на която станах служител според Божието настойничество, което ми беше възложено за вас, за да изпълня словото на Бога, 26 тоест тайната, която е била скрита от векове и от поколения, а сега беше открита на Неговите светии, 27 на които Бог пожела да изяви какви са богатствата на славата на тази тайна между езичниците, която е Христос във вас, надеждата на славата. 28 Него ние възвестяваме, като наставляваме всеки човек и поучаваме всеки човек с пълна мъдрост, за да представим всеки човек съвършен в Христос. 29 Затова се трудя и аз, като се боря според Неговата сила, която мощно действа в мен.
Croatian(i) 1 Pavao, po volji Božjoj apostol Krista Isusa, i brat Timotej: 2 Kološanima, svetoj i vjernoj braći u Kristu. Milost vam i mir od Boga, Oca našega! 3 Zahvaljujemo Bogu, Ocu Gospodina našega Isusa Krista, svagda za vas moleći. 4 Jer čuli smo za vašu vjeru u Kristu Isusu i za ljubav koju gajite prema svima svetima 5 poradi nade koja vam je pohranjena u nebesima. Za nju ste već čuli u Riječi istine - 6 evanđelju koje je do vas doprlo te plodove nosi i raste, kao što po svem svijetu, tako i među vama od dana kad ste čuli i spoznali milost Božju po istini, 7 kako ste naučili od ljubljenog Epafre, sluge zajedno s nama; on je umjesto nas, vjeran poslužitelj Kristov, 8 on nas je i obavijestio o vašoj ljubavi u Duhu. 9 Zato i mi, od dana kada to čusmo, neprestano za vas molimo i ištemo da se ispunite spoznajom volje Njegove u svoj mudrosti i shvaćanju duhovnome: 10 da živite dostojno Gospodina i posve mu ugodite, plodni svakim dobrim djelom i rastući u spoznaji Božjoj; 11 osnaženi svakom snagom, po sili Slave njegove, za svaku postojanost i strpljivost; 12 s radošću zahvaljujući Ocu koji vas osposobi za dioništvo u baštini svetih u svjetlosti. 13 On nas izbavi iz vlasti tame i prenese u kraljevstvo Sina, ljubavi svoje, 14 u kome imamo otkupljenje, otpuštenje grijeha. 15 On je slika Boga nevidljivoga, Prvorođenac svakog stvorenja. 16 Ta u njemu je sve stvoreno na nebesima i na zemlji, vidljivo i nevidljivo, bilo Prijestolja, bilo Gospodstva, bilo Vrhovništva, bilo Vlasti - sve je po njemu i za njega stvoreno: 17 on je prije svega i sve stoji u njemu. 18 On je Glava Tijela, Crkve; on je Početak, Prvorođenac od mrtvih, da u svemu bude Prvak. 19 Jer svidjelo se Bogu u njemu nastaniti svu Puninu 20 i po njemu - uspostavivši mir krvlju križa njegova - izmiriti sa sobom sve, bilo na zemlji, bilo na nebesima. 21 I vas, nekoć po zlim djelima udaljene i neprijateljski raspoložene, 22 sada u ljudskom tijelu Kristovu, po smrti, sa sobom izmiri da vas k sebi privede svete, bez mane i besprigovorne. 23 Samo ako ostanete u vjeri utemeljeni, stalni i nepoljuljani u nadi evanđelja koje čuste, koje se propovijeda svakom stvorenju pod nebom, a ja mu, Pavao, postadoh poslužiteljem. 24 Radujem se sada dok trpim za vas i u svom tijelu dopunjam što nedostaje mukama Kristovim za Tijelo njegovo, za Crkvu. 25 Njoj ja postadoh poslužiteljem po rasporedbi Božjoj koja mi je dana za vas da potpuno pronesem Riječ Božju - 26 otajstvo pred vjekovima i pred naraštajima skriveno, a sada očitovano svetima njegovim. 27 Njima Bog htjede obznaniti kako li je slavom bogato to otajstvo među poganima: to jest Krist u vama, nada slave! 28 Njega mi navješćujemo, opominjući svakoga čovjeka, poučavajući svakoga čovjeka u svoj mudrosti da bismo svakoga čovjeka doveli do savršenstva u Kristu. 29 Za to se i trudim i borim njegovom djelotvornošću koja u meni snažno djeluje.
BKR(i) 1 Pavel apoštol Ježíše Krista, skrze vůli Boží, a Timoteus bratr, 2 Těm, kteříž jsou v městě Kolossis, svatým a věrným bratřím v Kristu: Milost vám a pokoj od Boha Otce našeho a Pána Ježíše Krista. 3 Díky činíme Bohu a Otci Pána našeho Jezukrista, vždycky za vás modléce se, 4 Slyšavše o víře vaší v Kristu Ježíši a o lásce ke všechněm svatým, 5 Pro naději složenou vám v nebesích, o níž jste prve slyšeli v slovu pravdy, jenž jest evangelium. 6 Kteréž jest přišlo k vám, jako i na všecken svět, a ovoce nese, jako i u vás, od toho dne, v kterémž jste slyšeli a poznali milost Boží v pravdě, 7 Jakož jste se i naučili od Epafry, milého spoluslužebníka našeho, kterýž jest věrný k vám služebník Kristův, 8 Kterýž také oznámil nám lásku vaši v Duchu. 9 Protož i my, od toho dne, jakž jsme to uslyšeli, nepřestáváme modliti se za vás a žádati, abyste naplněni byli známostí vůle jeho ve vší moudrosti a rozumnosti duchovní, 10 Abyste chodili hodně Pánu ke vší jeho líbeznosti, v každém skutku dobrém, ovoce vydávajíce a rostouce v známosti Boží, 11 Všelikou mocí zmocněni jsouce, podle síly slávy jeho, ke vší trpělivosti a dobrotivosti s radostí, 12 Díky činíce Otci, kterýž hodné nás učinil účastnosti losu svatých v světle, 13 Kterýž vytrhl nás z moci temnosti a přenesl do království milého Syna svého, 14 V němžto máme vykoupení skrze krev jeho, totiž odpuštění hříchů, 15 Kterýž jest obraz Boha neviditelného a prvorozený všeho stvoření. 16 Nebo skrze něho stvořeny jsou všecky věci, kteréž jsou na nebi i na zemi, viditelné i neviditelné, buďto trůnové nebo panstva, buďto knížatstva nebo mocnosti; všecko skrze něho a pro něho stvořeno jest. 17 A on jest přede vším a všecko jím stojí. 18 A onť jest hlava těla církve, kterýž jest počátek a prvorozený z mrtvých, aby tak on ve všem prvotnost držel, 19 Poněvadž se zalíbilo Otci, aby v něm všecka plnost přebývala, 20 A skrze něho aby smířil s sebou všecko, v pokoj uvodě skrze krev kříže jeho, skrze něj, pravím, buďto ty věci, kteréž jsou na zemi, buď ty, kteréž jsou na nebi. 21 A vás také někdy odcizené a nepřátely, v mysli vaší obrácené k skutkům zlým, nyní již smířil, 22 Tělem svým skrze smrt, aby vás postavil svaté, a neposkvrněné, a bez úhony před obličejem svým, 23 Však jestliže zůstáváte u víře založení a pevní, a neuchylujete se od naděje evangelium, kteréž jste slyšeli, jenž jest kázáno všemu stvoření, kteréž jest pod nebem, jehožto já Pavel učiněn jsem služebník; 24 Kterýž nyní raduji se z utrpení mých, kteráž snáším pro vás, a doplňuji ostatky soužení Kristových na těle svém za jeho tělo, jenž jest církev, 25 Jejížto učiněn jsem já služebník, tak jakž mi to svěřil Bůh na to, abych vám sloužil, a tak naplnil slovo Boží, 26 Jenž jest tajemství skryté od věků a národů, nyní pak zjevené svatým jeho. 27 Jimžto Bůh ráčil známo učiniti, kteraké by bylo bohatství slavného tajemství tohoto mezi pohany, jenž jest přebývání Krista v vás, kterýž jest naděje slávy, 28 Kteréhož my zvěstujeme, napomínajíce všelikého člověka a učíce všelikého člověka ve vší moudrosti, abychom postavili každého člověka dokonalého v Kristu Ježíši. 29 O čež i pracuji, bojuje podle té jeho mocnosti, kteráž dělá ve mně dílo své mocně.
Danish(i) 1 Paulus, Jesu Christi Apostel ved Guds Villie, og Broderen Timotheus, 2 til de Hellige i Colossen, de troende Brødre i Christus: Naade være med Eder og Fred, fra Gud vor Fader og den Herre Jesus Christus! 3 Vi takke Gud og vor Herrens Jesu Christi Fader, idet vi altid bede for Eder, 4 da vi have hørt om Eders Tro i Christus Jesus og Eders Kjærlighed til alle Hellige, 5 for det Haab, som Eder er henlagt i himlene, om hvilket I have allerede hørt i Evangeliums Sandheds Ord, 6 hvilket er kommet til Eder, som og i den ganske Verden, og er frugtbringende, ligesom og ibandt Eder fra den Dag, I hørte og erkjendte Guds Naade i Sandhed; 7 ligesom i have lært af Epaphras, vor elskelige Medarbeider, hvilken er en tro Christi Tjener for Eder, 8 som ogsaa gav os Eders Kjærlighed i Aanden tilkjende. 9 Derfor aflagde vi og ikke fra den Dag, vi hørte det, at bede for Eder og begjere, at I maatte fyldes med hans Villies Erkjendelse i al Viisdom og aandelig Forstand, 10 at I kunne omgaaes værdeligen for Herren til at Velbehagelighed og være frugtbare paa al god Gjerning, og voxe til Guds Erkjendelse; 11 styrkede med al Styrke efter hans Herligheds Kraft til al Taalmodighed og Langmodighed med Glæde; 12 takkende Faderen, som gjorde os dygtige til de Helliges Arvedeel i Lyset, 13 som friede os af Mørkets Magt og oversatte os i sin elskelige Søns Rige, 14 i hvilken vi have Forløsning ved hans Blod, nemlig Syndernes Forladelse; 15 hvilken er den usynlige Guds Billede, al Skabningens Førstefødte; 16 thi ved ham ere alle Ting skabte, de i Himlene og de paa Jorden, de synlige og usynlige, være sig Throner eller Herredømmer eller Fyrstendoømmer eller Magter, alle Ting ere skabte ved ham og til ham; 17 og han er for alle Ting, og alle Ting bestaae ved ham; 18 og han er Legemets Hoved, nemlig Menighedens; han er Begyndelsen, den Forstefødte af de Døde, at han skal være den Ypperste iblandt Alle; 19 thi i ham behagede det Faderen at al Fylde skulde boe, 20 og ved ham at forlige alle Ting, hvære sig de paa Jorden eller de i Himlene, med sig, idet han gjorde Fred formedelst hans Korses Blod ved ham. 21 Ogsaa Eder, som fordum vare fremmede og fjendske af Sindelag i onde Gjerninger, 22 har han dog nu forligt i sit kjødelige Legeme ved Døden, for at fremstille Eder hellige og ulastelige og ustraffelige for sit Aasyn; 23 saafremt I ellers forblive grundfæstede og stadige i Troen, og ikke lade Eder rokke fra det Evangeliums Haab hvilket I have hørt, hvilket er prædiket for al Skabningen under Himmelen, hvis Tjener jeg Paulus er bleven. 24 Nu glæder jeg mig i mine Lidelser for Eder og opfylder det, som fattes i Christi Trængsler, i mit Kjød for hans Legeme, som er Menigheden; 25 hvis Tjener jeg er bleven efter det Guds Embede, som er mig givet hos Eder, rigeligen at prædige Guds Ord, 26 den Hemmelighed, der var skjult fra alle Tider og Slægter, men nu er aabenbaret for hans Hellige, 27 hvem Gud vilde tilkjendegive, hvor stor denne Hemmeligheds herlige Rigdom er iblandt hedningerne, hvilken er Christus iblandt Eder, det Herlighedens Haab. 28 Ham forkynde vi, idet vi paaminde hvert Menneske og lære hvert Menneske i al Vissdom, at vi kunne fremstille hvert Menneske fuldkomment i Christus Jesus; 29 hvortil jeg og arbeider, stridende ved hans Kraft, som virker mægtigen i mig.
CUV(i) 1 奉 神 旨 意 ， 作 基 督 耶 穌 使 徒 的 保 羅 和 兄 弟 提 摩 太 2 寫 信 給 歌 羅 西 的 聖 徒 ， 在 基 督 裡 有 忠 心 的 弟 兄 。 願 恩 惠 、 平 安 從 神 我 們 的 父 歸 與 你 們 ！ 3 我 們 感 謝 神 、 我 們 主 耶 穌 基 督 的 父 ， 常 常 為 你 們 禱 告 ； 4 因 聽 見 你 們 在 基 督 耶 穌 裡 的 信 心 ， 並 向 眾 聖 徒 的 愛 心 ， 5 是 為 那 給 你 們 存 在 天 上 的 盼 望 ； 這 盼 望 就 是 你 們 從 前 在 福 音 真 理 的 道 上 所 聽 見 的 。 6 這 福 音 傳 到 你 們 那 裡 ， 也 傳 到 普 天 之 下 ， 並 且 結 果 ， 增 長 ， 如 同 在 你 們 中 間 ， 自 從 你 們 聽 見 福 音 ， 真 知 道 神 恩 惠 的 日 子 一 樣 。 7 正 如 你 們 從 我 們 所 親 愛 、 一 同 作 僕 人 的 以 巴 弗 所 學 的 。 他 為 我 們 （ 有 古 卷 ： 你 們 ） 作 了 基 督 忠 心 的 執 事 ， 8 也 把 你 們 因 聖 靈 所 存 的 愛 心 告 訴 了 我 們 。 9 因 此 ， 我 們 自 從 聽 見 的 日 子 ， 也 就 為 你 們 不 住 的 禱 告 祈 求 ， 願 你 們 在 一 切 屬 靈 的 智 慧 悟 性 上 ， 滿 心 知 道 神 的 旨 意 ； 10 好 叫 你 們 行 事 為 人 對 得 起 主 ， 凡 事 蒙 他 喜 悅 ， 在 一 切 善 事 上 結 果 子 ， 漸 漸 的 多 知 道 神 ； 11 照 他 榮 耀 的 權 能 ， 得 以 在 各 樣 的 力 上 加 力 ， 好 叫 你 們 凡 事 歡 歡 喜 喜 的 忍 耐 寬 容 ； 12 又 感 謝 父 ， 叫 我 們 能 與 眾 聖 徒 在 光 明 中 同 得 基 業 。 13 他 救 了 我 們 脫 離 黑 暗 的 權 勢 ， 把 我 們 遷 到 他 愛 子 的 國 裡 ； 14 我 們 在 愛 子 裡 得 蒙 救 贖 ， 罪 過 得 以 赦 免 。 15 愛 子 是 那 不 能 看 見 之 神 的 像 ， 是 首 生 的 ， 在 一 切 被 造 的 以 先 。 16 因 為 萬 有 都 是 靠 他 造 的 ， 無 論 是 天 上 的 ， 地 上 的 ； 能 看 見 的 ， 不 能 看 見 的 ； 或 是 有 位 的 ， 主 治 的 ， 執 政 的 ， 掌 權 的 ； 一 概 都 是 藉 著 他 造 的 ， 又 是 為 他 造 的 。 17 他 在 萬 有 之 先 ； 萬 有 也 靠 他 而 立 。 18 他 也 是 教 會 全 體 之 首 。 他 是 元 始 ， 是 從 死 裡 首 先 復 生 的 ， 使 他 可 以 在 凡 事 上 居 首 位 。 19 因 為 父 喜 歡 叫 一 切 的 豐 盛 在 他 裡 面 居 住 。 20 既 然 藉 著 他 在 十 字 架 上 所 流 的 血 成 就 了 和 平 ， 便 藉 著 他 叫 萬 有 ─ 無 論 是 地 上 的 、 天 上 的 ─ 都 與 自 己 和 好 了 。 21 你 們 從 前 與 神 隔 絕 ， 因 著 惡 行 ， 心 裡 與 他 為 敵 。 22 但 如 今 他 藉 著 基 督 的 肉 身 受 死 ， 叫 你 們 與 自 己 和 好 ， 都 成 了 聖 潔 ， 沒 有 瑕 疵 ， 無 可 責 備 ， 把 你 們 引 到 自 己 面 前 。 23 只 要 你 們 在 所 信 的 道 上 恆 心 ， 根 基 穩 固 ， 堅 定 不 移 ， 不 至 被 引 動 失 去 （ 原 文 是 離 開 ） 福 音 的 盼 望 。 這 福 音 就 是 你 們 所 聽 過 的 ， 也 是 傳 與 普 天 下 萬 人 聽 的 （ 原 文 是 凡 受 造 的 ） ， 我 保 羅 也 作 了 這 福 音 的 執 事 。 24 現 在 我 為 你 們 受 苦 ， 倒 覺 歡 樂 ； 並 且 為 基 督 的 身 體 ， 就 是 為 教 會 ， 要 在 我 肉 身 上 補 滿 基 督 患 難 的 缺 欠 。 25 我 照 神 為 你 們 所 賜 我 的 職 分 作 了 教 會 的 執 事 ， 要 把 神 的 道 理 傳 得 全 備 ， 26 這 道 理 就 是 歷 世 歷 代 所 隱 藏 的 奧 秘 ； 但 如 今 向 他 的 聖 徒 顯 明 了 。 27 神 願 意 叫 他 們 知 道 ， 這 奧 秘 在 外 邦 人 中 有 何 等 豐 盛 的 榮 耀 ， 就 是 基 督 在 你 們 心 裡 成 了 有 榮 耀 的 盼 望 。 28 我 們 傳 揚 他 ， 是 用 諸 般 的 智 慧 ， 勸 戒 各 人 ， 教 導 各 人 ， 要 把 各 人 在 基 督 裡 完 完 全 全 的 引 到 神 面 前 。 29 我 也 為 此 勞 苦 ， 照 著 他 在 我 裡 面 運 用 的 大 能 盡 心 竭 力 。

  2 G2857 寫信給歌羅西 G40 的聖徒 G1722 ，在 G5547 基督 G4103 裡有忠心 G80 的弟兄 G5485 。願恩惠 G1515 、平安 G575 從 G2316 神 G2257 我們的 G3962 父 G5213 歸與你們！
  3 G2168 我們感謝 G2316 神 G2257 、我們 G2962 主 G2424 耶穌 G5547 基督 G3962 的父 G3842 ，常常 G4012 為 G5216 你們 G4336 禱告；
  4 G191 因聽見 G5216 你們 G1722 在 G5547 基督 G2424 耶穌 G4102 裡的信心 G2532 ，並 G1519 向 G3956 眾 G40 聖徒 G26 的愛心，
  5 G1223 是為 G3588 那 G5213 給你們 G606 存 G1722 在 G3772 天上 G1680 的盼望 G3739 ；這盼望就是 G4257 你們從前 G1722 在 G2098 福音 G225 真理的 G3056 道上所聽見的。
  6 G3588 這 G3918 福音傳 G1519 到 G5209 你們 G2531 G2532 那裡，也 G1722 傳到 G3956 G2889 普天之下 G2532 ，並且 G2076 G2592 結果 G2531 G2532 ，增長，如同 G5213 在你們 G1722 中間 G575 ，自從 G191 你們聽見 G225 福音，真 G1921 知道 G2316 神 G5485 恩惠 G2250 的日子一樣。
  7 G2531 正如 G575 你們從 G2257 我們 G27 所親愛 G4889 、一同作僕人 G1889 的以巴弗 G3129 所學 G3739 的。他 G5228 為 G5216 我們（有古卷：你們 G2076 ）作了 G5547 基督 G4103 忠心 G1249 的執事，
  8 G2532 也 G5216 把你們 G1722 因 G4151 聖靈 G26 所存的愛心 G1213 告訴了 G2254 我們。
  9 G1223 因此 G2249 ，我們 G575 自從 G191 聽見 G2250 的日子 G2532 ，也 G5124 就 G5228 為 G5216 你們 G3756 不 G3973 住 G4336 的禱告祈求 G154 ，願 G1722 你們在 G3956 一切 G4152 屬靈 G4678 的智慧 G4907 悟性 G4137 上，滿心 G1922 知道 G2307 神的旨意；
  10 G5209 好叫你們 G4043 行事為人 G516 對得起 G2962 主 G3956 ，凡事 G699 蒙他喜悅 G1722 ，在 G3956 一切 G18 善 G2041 事 G2592 上結果子 G837 ，漸漸的多 G1922 知道 G2316 神；
  11 G2596 照 G846 他 G1391 榮耀的 G2904 權能 G1722 ，得以在 G3956 各樣的 G1411 力 G1412 上加力 G1519 ，好叫 G3956 你們凡事 G5479 歡歡喜喜的 G5281 忍耐 G3115 寬容；
  12 G2168 又感謝 G3962 父 G2248 ，叫我們 G2427 能 G40 與眾聖徒 G5457 在光明 G1722 中 G1519 同得 G2819 基業。
  13 G3739 他 G4506 救了 G2248 我們 G1537 脫離 G4655 黑暗 G1849 的權勢 G3179 ，把我們遷 G1519 到 G846 他 G26 愛 G5207 子 G932 的國裡；
  14 G1722 我們在 G2192 愛子裡得蒙 G629 救贖 G266 ，罪過 G859 得以赦免。
  15 G2076 愛子是 G517 那不能看見 G2316 之神 G1504 的像 G4416 ，是首生的 G3956 ，在一切 G2937 被造的以先。
  16 G3754 因為 G3956 萬有 G1722 都是靠 G846 他 G2936 造 G3772 的，無論是天 G1722 上 G1093 的，地 G1909 上 G3707 的；能看見的 G517 ，不能看見的 G1535 ；或是 G2362 有位的 G2963 ，主治的 G746 ，執政的 G1849 ，掌權的 G3956 ；一概 G1223 都是藉著 G846 他 G2936 造 G2532 的，又是 G1519 為 G846 他造的。
  17 G846 他 G2076 在 G3956 萬有 G4253 之先 G3956 ；萬有 G2532 也 G1722 靠 G846 他 G4921 而立。
  18 G846 他 G2532 也 G2076 是 G1577 教會 G4983 全體 G2776 之首 G3739 。他 G2076 是 G746 元始 G1537 ，是從 G3498 死裡 G4416 首先復生 G2443 的，使 G846 他 G1722 可以在 G3956 凡事 G1096 上居 G4409 首位。
  19 G3754 因為 G2106 父喜歡 G3956 叫一切的 G4138 豐盛 G846 在他 G1722 裡面 G2730 居住。
  20 G2532 既然 G1223 藉著 G846 他 G4716 在十字架 G129 上所流的血 G1517 成就了和平 G1223 ，便藉著 G846 他 G3956 叫萬有 G1535 ─無論 G1093 是地 G1909 上 G3772 的、天 G1722 上 G1519 的─都與 G846 自己 G604 和好了。
  21 G5209 你們 G4218 從前 G5607 與 G526 神隔絕 G1722 ，因著 G4190 惡 G2041 行 G1271 ，心裡 G2190 與他為敵。
  22 G1161 但 G3570 如今 G846 他 G1722 藉著 G4561 基督的肉 G4983 身 G1223 受 G2288 死 G5209 ，叫你們 G604 與自己和好 G3936 ，都成了 G40 聖潔 G299 ，沒有瑕疵 G410 ，無可責備 G846 ，把你們引到自己 G2714 面前。
  23 G1489 只要 G4102 你們在所信的 G1961 道上恆心 G2311 ，根基穩固 G1476 ，堅定不移 G3361 ，不至 G3334 G575 被引動失去（原文是離開 G2098 ）福音 G1680 的盼望 G3739 。這 G191 福音就是你們所聽過 G2784 的，也是傳 G1722 與 G3772 普天 G5259 下 G3956 萬 G2937 人 G1473 聽的（原文是凡受造的），我 G3972 保羅 G1096 也作了 G1249 這福音的執事。
  24 G3568 現在 G3450 我 G5228 為 G5216 你們 G3804 受苦 G5463 ，倒覺歡樂 G2532 ；並且 G4983 為基督的身體 G3603 ，就是 G1577 為教會 G1722 ，要在 G3450 我 G4561 肉身上 G466 補滿 G5547 基督 G2347 患難 G5303 的缺欠。
  25 G1473 我 G2596 照 G2316 神 G1519 為 G5209 你們 G1325 所賜 G3427 我 G3622 的職分 G1096 作了 G1249 教會的執事 G2316 ，要把神 G3056 的道理 G4137 傳得全備，
  26 G3588 這 G165 道理就是歷世 G1074 歷代 G613 所隱藏的 G3466 奧秘 G1161 ；但 G3570 如今 G846 向他 G40 的聖徒 G5319 顯明了。
  27 G2316 神 G2309 願意 G1107 叫他們知道 G5127 ，這 G3466 奧秘 G1484 在外邦人 G1722 中 G5101 有何等 G4149 豐盛的 G1391 榮耀 G2076 ，就是 G5547 基督 G1722 在 G5213 你們 G1391 心裡成了有榮耀的 G1680 盼望。

CUVS(i) 1 奉 神 旨 意 ， 作 基 督 耶 稣 使 徒 的 保 罗 和 兄 弟 提 摩 太 2 写 信 给 歌 罗 西 的 圣 徒 ， 在 基 督 里 冇 忠 心 的 弟 兄 。 愿 恩 惠 、 平 安 从 神 我 们 的 父 归 与 你 们 ！ 3 我 们 感 谢 神 、 我 们 主 耶 稣 基 督 的 父 ， 常 常 为 你 们 祷 告 ； 4 因 听 见 你 们 在 基 督 耶 稣 里 的 信 心 ， 并 向 众 圣 徒 的 爱 心 ， 5 是 为 那 给 你 们 存 在 天 上 的 盼 望 ； 这 盼 望 就 是 你 们 从 前 在 福 音 真 理 的 道 上 所 听 见 的 。 6 这 福 音 传 到 你 们 那 里 ， 也 传 到 普 天 之 下 ， 并 且 结 果 ， 增 长 ， 如 同 在 你 们 中 间 ， 自 从 你 们 听 见 福 音 ， 真 知 道 神 恩 惠 的 日 子 一 样 。 7 正 如 你 们 从 我 们 所 亲 爱 、 一 同 作 仆 人 的 以 巴 弗 所 学 的 。 他 为 我 们 （ 冇 古 卷 ： 你 们 ） 作 了 基 督 忠 心 的 执 事 ， 8 也 把 你 们 因 圣 灵 所 存 的 爱 心 告 诉 了 我 们 。 9 因 此 ， 我 们 自 从 听 见 的 日 子 ， 也 就 为 你 们 不 住 的 祷 告 祈 求 ， 愿 你 们 在 一 切 属 灵 的 智 慧 悟 性 上 ， 满 心 知 道 神 的 旨 意 ； 10 好 叫 你 们 行 事 为 人 对 得 起 主 ， 凡 事 蒙 他 喜 悦 ， 在 一 切 善 事 上 结 果 子 ， 渐 渐 的 多 知 道 神 ； 11 照 他 荣 耀 的 权 能 ， 得 以 在 各 样 的 力 上 加 力 ， 好 叫 你 们 凡 事 欢 欢 喜 喜 的 忍 耐 宽 容 ； 12 又 感 谢 父 ， 叫 我 们 能 与 众 圣 徒 在 光 明 中 同 得 基 业 。 13 他 救 了 我 们 脱 离 黑 暗 的 权 势 ， 把 我 们 迁 到 他 爱 子 的 国 里 ； 14 我 们 在 爱 子 里 得 蒙 救 赎 ， 罪 过 得 以 赦 免 。 15 爱 子 是 那 不 能 看 见 之 神 的 象 ， 是 首 生 的 ， 在 一 切 被 造 的 以 先 。 16 因 为 万 冇 都 是 靠 他 造 的 ， 无 论 是 天 上 的 ， 地 上 的 ； 能 看 见 的 ， 不 能 看 见 的 ； 或 是 冇 位 的 ， 主 治 的 ， 执 政 的 ， 掌 权 的 ； 一 概 都 是 藉 着 他 造 的 ， 又 是 为 他 造 的 。 17 他 在 万 冇 之 先 ； 万 冇 也 靠 他 而 立 。 18 他 也 是 教 会 全 体 之 首 。 他 是 元 始 ， 是 从 死 里 首 先 复 生 的 ， 使 他 可 以 在 凡 事 上 居 首 位 。 19 因 为 父 喜 欢 叫 一 切 的 丰 盛 在 他 里 面 居 住 。 20 既 然 藉 着 他 在 十 字 架 上 所 流 的 血 成 就 了 和 平 ， 便 藉 着 他 叫 万 冇 ― 无 论 是 地 上 的 、 天 上 的 ― 都 与 自 己 和 好 了 。 21 你 们 从 前 与 神 隔 绝 ， 因 着 恶 行 ， 心 里 与 他 为 敌 。 22 但 如 今 他 藉 着 基 督 的 肉 身 受 死 ， 叫 你 们 与 自 己 和 好 ， 都 成 了 圣 洁 ， 没 冇 瑕 疵 ， 无 可 责 备 ， 把 你 们 引 到 自 己 面 前 。 23 只 要 你 们 在 所 信 的 道 上 恒 心 ， 根 基 稳 固 ， 坚 定 不 移 ， 不 至 被 引 动 失 去 （ 原 文 是 离 幵 ） 福 音 的 盼 望 。 这 福 音 就 是 你 们 所 听 过 的 ， 也 是 传 与 普 天 下 万 人 听 的 （ 原 文 是 凡 受 造 的 ） ， 我 保 罗 也 作 了 这 福 音 的 执 事 。 24 现 在 我 为 你 们 受 苦 ， 倒 觉 欢 乐 ； 并 且 为 基 督 的 身 体 ， 就 是 为 教 会 ， 要 在 我 肉 身 上 补 满 基 督 患 难 的 缺 欠 。 25 我 照 神 为 你 们 所 赐 我 的 职 分 作 了 教 会 的 执 事 ， 要 把 神 的 道 理 传 得 全 备 ， 26 这 道 理 就 是 历 世 历 代 所 隐 藏 的 奥 秘 ； 但 如 今 向 他 的 圣 徒 显 明 了 。 27 神 愿 意 叫 他 们 知 道 ， 这 奥 秘 在 外 邦 人 中 冇 何 等 丰 盛 的 荣 耀 ， 就 是 基 督 在 你 们 心 里 成 了 冇 荣 耀 的 盼 望 。 28 我 们 传 扬 他 ， 是 用 诸 般 的 智 慧 ， 劝 戒 各 人 ， 教 导 各 人 ， 要 把 各 人 在 基 督 里 完 完 全 全 的 引 到 神 面 前 。 29 我 也 为 此 劳 苦 ， 照 着 他 在 我 里 面 运 用 的 大 能 尽 心 竭 力 。

  2 G2857 写信给歌罗西 G40 的圣徒 G1722 ，在 G5547 基督 G4103 里有忠心 G80 的弟兄 G5485 。愿恩惠 G1515 、平安 G575 从 G2316 神 G2257 我们的 G3962 父 G5213 归与你们！
  3 G2168 我们感谢 G2316 神 G2257 、我们 G2962 主 G2424 耶稣 G5547 基督 G3962 的父 G3842 ，常常 G4012 为 G5216 你们 G4336 祷告；
  4 G191 因听见 G5216 你们 G1722 在 G5547 基督 G2424 耶稣 G4102 里的信心 G2532 ，并 G1519 向 G3956 众 G40 圣徒 G26 的爱心，
  5 G1223 是为 G3588 那 G5213 给你们 G606 存 G1722 在 G3772 天上 G1680 的盼望 G3739 ；这盼望就是 G4257 你们从前 G1722 在 G2098 福音 G225 真理的 G3056 道上所听见的。
  6 G3588 这 G3918 福音传 G1519 到 G5209 你们 G2531 G2532 那里，也 G1722 传到 G3956 G2889 普天之下 G2532 ，并且 G2076 G2592 结果 G2531 G2532 ，增长，如同 G5213 在你们 G1722 中间 G575 ，自从 G191 你们听见 G225 福音，真 G1921 知道 G2316 神 G5485 恩惠 G2250 的日子一样。
  7 G2531 正如 G575 你们从 G2257 我们 G27 所亲爱 G4889 、一同作仆人 G1889 的以巴弗 G3129 所学 G3739 的。他 G5228 为 G5216 我们（有古卷：你们 G2076 ）作了 G5547 基督 G4103 忠心 G1249 的执事，
  8 G2532 也 G5216 把你们 G1722 因 G4151 圣灵 G26 所存的爱心 G1213 告诉了 G2254 我们。
  9 G1223 因此 G2249 ，我们 G575 自从 G191 听见 G2250 的日子 G2532 ，也 G5124 就 G5228 为 G5216 你们 G3756 不 G3973 住 G4336 的祷告祈求 G154 ，愿 G1722 你们在 G3956 一切 G4152 属灵 G4678 的智慧 G4907 悟性 G4137 上，满心 G1922 知道 G2307 神的旨意；
  10 G5209 好叫你们 G4043 行事为人 G516 对得起 G2962 主 G3956 ，凡事 G699 蒙他喜悦 G1722 ，在 G3956 一切 G18 善 G2041 事 G2592 上结果子 G837 ，渐渐的多 G1922 知道 G2316 神；
  11 G2596 照 G846 他 G1391 荣耀的 G2904 权能 G1722 ，得以在 G3956 各样的 G1411 力 G1412 上加力 G1519 ，好叫 G3956 你们凡事 G5479 欢欢喜喜的 G5281 忍耐 G3115 宽容；
  12 G2168 又感谢 G3962 父 G2248 ，叫我们 G2427 能 G40 与众圣徒 G5457 在光明 G1722 中 G1519 同得 G2819 基业。
  13 G3739 他 G4506 救了 G2248 我们 G1537 脱离 G4655 黑暗 G1849 的权势 G3179 ，把我们迁 G1519 到 G846 他 G26 爱 G5207 子 G932 的国里；
  14 G1722 我们在 G2192 爱子里得蒙 G629 救赎 G266 ，罪过 G859 得以赦免。
  15 G2076 爱子是 G517 那不能看见 G2316 之神 G1504 的象 G4416 ，是首生的 G3956 ，在一切 G2937 被造的以先。
  16 G3754 因为 G3956 万有 G1722 都是靠 G846 他 G2936 造 G3772 的，无论是天 G1722 上 G1093 的，地 G1909 上 G3707 的；能看见的 G517 ，不能看见的 G1535 ；或是 G2362 有位的 G2963 ，主治的 G746 ，执政的 G1849 ，掌权的 G3956 ；一概 G1223 都是藉着 G846 他 G2936 造 G2532 的，又是 G1519 为 G846 他造的。
  17 G846 他 G2076 在 G3956 万有 G4253 之先 G3956 ；万有 G2532 也 G1722 靠 G846 他 G4921 而立。
  18 G846 他 G2532 也 G2076 是 G1577 教会 G4983 全体 G2776 之首 G3739 。他 G2076 是 G746 元始 G1537 ，是从 G3498 死里 G4416 首先复生 G2443 的，使 G846 他 G1722 可以在 G3956 凡事 G1096 上居 G4409 首位。
  19 G3754 因为 G2106 父喜欢 G3956 叫一切的 G4138 丰盛 G846 在他 G1722 里面 G2730 居住。
  20 G2532 既然 G1223 藉着 G846 他 G4716 在十字架 G129 上所流的血 G1517 成就了和平 G1223 ，便藉着 G846 他 G3956 叫万有 G1535 ―无论 G1093 是地 G1909 上 G3772 的、天 G1722 上 G1519 的―都与 G846 自己 G604 和好了。
  21 G5209 你们 G4218 从前 G5607 与 G526 神隔绝 G1722 ，因着 G4190 恶 G2041 行 G1271 ，心里 G2190 与他为敌。
  22 G1161 但 G3570 如今 G846 他 G1722 藉着 G4561 基督的肉 G4983 身 G1223 受 G2288 死 G5209 ，叫你们 G604 与自己和好 G3936 ，都成了 G40 圣洁 G299 ，没有瑕疵 G410 ，无可责备 G846 ，把你们引到自己 G2714 面前。
  23 G1489 只要 G4102 你们在所信的 G1961 道上恒心 G2311 ，根基稳固 G1476 ，坚定不移 G3361 ，不至 G3334 G575 被引动失去（原文是离开 G2098 ）福音 G1680 的盼望 G3739 。这 G191 福音就是你们所听过 G2784 的，也是传 G1722 与 G3772 普天 G5259 下 G3956 万 G2937 人 G1473 听的（原文是凡受造的），我 G3972 保罗 G1096 也作了 G1249 这福音的执事。
  24 G3568 现在 G3450 我 G5228 为 G5216 你们 G3804 受苦 G5463 ，倒觉欢乐 G2532 ；并且 G4983 为基督的身体 G3603 ，就是 G1577 为教会 G1722 ，要在 G3450 我 G4561 肉身上 G466 补满 G5547 基督 G2347 患难 G5303 的缺欠。
  25 G1473 我 G2596 照 G2316 神 G1519 为 G5209 你们 G1325 所赐 G3427 我 G3622 的职分 G1096 作了 G1249 教会的执事 G2316 ，要把神 G3056 的道理 G4137 传得全备，
  26 G3588 这 G165 道理就是历世 G1074 历代 G613 所隐藏的 G3466 奥秘 G1161 ；但 G3570 如今 G846 向他 G40 的圣徒 G5319 显明了。
  27 G2316 神 G2309 愿意 G1107 叫他们知道 G5127 ，这 G3466 奥秘 G1484 在外邦人 G1722 中 G5101 有何等 G4149 丰盛的 G1391 荣耀 G2076 ，就是 G5547 基督 G1722 在 G5213 你们 G1391 心里成了有荣耀的 G1680 盼望。
  28 G2249 我们 G2605 传扬 G1722 他，是用 G3956 诸般的 G4678 智慧 G3560 ，劝戒 G3956 各 G444 人 G1321 ，教导 G3956 各 G444 人 G2443 ，要把 G3956 各 G444 人 G1722 在 G5547 基督 G5046 里完完全全的 G3936 引到神面前。
  29 G2532 我也 G1519 G3739 为此 G2872 劳苦 G2596 ，照着 G846 他 G1698 在我 G1722 里面 G1754 运用 G1722 G1411 的大能 G75 尽心竭力。

Estonian(i) 1 Paulus, Jumala tahtel Jeesuse Kristuse Apostel, ja vend Timoteos, 2 Kolossas elavaile pühadele ja usklikele vendadele Kristuses. Armu teile ja rahu Jumalalt, meie Isalt, ja Issandalt Jeesuselt Kristuselt! 3 Me täname Jumalat ja oma Issanda Jeesuse Kristuse Isa, palvetades igal ajal teie eest, 4 sest me oleme kuulnud teie usust Kristuses Jeesuses ja teie armastusest kõigi pühade vastu, 5 mis teil on taevasse tallele pandud lootuse pärast, millest te varemalt olete kuulnud Evangeeliumi tõesõna kaudu, 6 mis on tulnud teie juurde ja nõnda kogu maailmas on kandmas vilja ning kasvab, nõnda ka teie seas alates sellest päevast, mil te kuulsite ja tunnetasite Jumala armu tõe sees, 7 nõnda nagu te seda ka õppisite Epafrase, meie armsa kaassulase käest, kes on ustav Kristuse abiline teie heaks, 8 kes meile ka on teatanud teie armastusest Vaimus. 9 Sellepärast ei ole ka meie sellest päevast, mil me seda kuulsime, lakanud palvet tegemast ja palumast teie eest, et teid täidetaks tema tahtmise tunnetusega kõiges vaimulikus tarkuses ja arusaamises, 10 et te elaksite väärikalt Issandale, et Temale kõigiti meeldida, vilja kandes kõiges heas töös ning kasvades Jumala tunnetuses 11 ja saades vägevaks kõige väega Tema au vägevust mööda kõigeks püsivuseks ja pikaks meeleks, rõõmuga 12 tänades Isa, Kes teid on teinud kõlbavaks osa saama püha rahva pärandist valguses, 13 Kes meid on päästnud pimeduse võimusest ja on meid asetanud Oma armsa Poja Riiki. 14 Temas on meil lunastus, pattude andekssaamine. 15 Tema on nähtamatu Jumala kuju, kõige loodu esmasündinu. 16 Sest Tema läbi on loodud kõik, mis on taevastes ja mis on maa peal, mis nähtav ja nähtamatu, olgu aujärjed, ülemused, valitsused, võimud; kõik on loodud Tema läbi ja Temasse; 17 ja Tema Ise on enne kõiki, ja kõik püsivad koos Tema sees; 18 ja Tema on ihu - see on Koguduse - pea; Ta on algus ja esmasündinu surnutest, et Ta kõiges saaks esikohale. 19 Sest Jumal arvas heaks kõik täiuse lasta elada Temas 20 ja tehes rahu ristivere läbi, lepitada Tema läbi Enese poole kõik, niihästi selle, mis on maa peal, kui ka selle, mis on taevas. 21 Ja Ta on teid, kes enne olite Temast võõrdunud ja oma meelsuse poolest vaenlased, tehes kurja, nüüd ka lepitatud oma lihalikus ihus surma läbi, 22 et seada teid pühadena ja veatuina ja laitmatuina enese ette, 23 kui te aga jääte ususse hästi rajatuina ja kindlaina ega lase endid ära pöörata Evangeeliumi lootusest, mida te olete kuulnud ja mis on kuulutatud kõigele loodule taeva all ja mille teenijaks mina, Paulus, olen saanud. 24 Nüüd ma olen rõõmus oma kannatamistes teie pärast, ja mis mul veel puudub Kristuse viletsustest, selle ma täiendan omas lihas Tema Ihu heaks, mis on Kogudus, 25 kelle teenijaks ma olen saanud Jumala korralduse järgi, mis minu kätte on usaldatud, et teile täielikult kuulutada Jumala sõna: 26 seda saladust, mis oli varjul endiste ajastute ja sugupõlvede eest, aga nüüd on avalikuks tehtud Tema pühadele, 27 kellele Jumal tahtis teada anda, milline on selle saladuse auhiilguse rikkus paganate seas - see on Kristus teie sees, auhiilguse lootus, 28 Keda me kuulutame, manitsedes igat inimest ja õpetades igat inimest kõiges tarkuses, et valmistada igat inimest täielikuks Kristuses. 29 Selle jaoks minagi näen vaeva ja võitlen Tema tarmu mööda, mis minus on vägevasti tegev.
Finnish(i) 1 Paavali, Jesuksen Kristuksen apostoli Jumalan tahdon kautta, ja veli Timoteus, 2 Niille, jotka ovat Kolossissa, pyhille ja uskollisille veljille Kristuksessa: armo olkoon teille ja rauha Jumalalta meidän isältämme ja Herralta Jesukselta Kristukselta! 3 Me kiitämme Jumalaa ja meidän Herran Jesuksen Kristuksen Isää, ja rukoilemme aina teidän edestänne, 4 Sittekuin me kuulimme teidän uskonne Kristuksessa Jesuksessa ja teidän rakkautenne kaikkia pyhiä kohtaan, 5 Sen toivon tähden, joka teille taivaissa tallelle pantu on, josta te ennen sen totisen evankeliumin saarnan kautta kuulleet olette, 6 Joka teidän tykönne tullut on, niinkuin myös kaikkeen maailmaan, ja hedelmän kantaa, niinkuin teissäkin hamasta siitä päivästä, jona te sen kuulleet olette ja Jumalan armon totuudessa tunsitte; 7 Niinkuin te myös meidän rakkaalta kanssa palvelialtamme Epaphraalta opitte, joka teidän edestänne Kristuksen uskollinen palvelia on, 8 Joka myös on meille ilmoittanut teidän rakkautenne hengessä. 9 Sentähden myös me siitä päivästä, jona me sen kuulimme, emme lakanneet teidän edestänne rukoilemasta ja anomasta, että te hänen tahtonsa tuntemisella täytettäisiin kaikkinaisessa hengellisessä viisaudessa ja toimessa, 10 Että te soveliaasti vaeltaisitte, kelvaten kaikissa Herralle, ja hedelmän tekisitte kaikissa hyvissä töissä ja kasvaisitte Jumalan tuntemisessa, 11 Ja vahvistetuksi tulisitte kaikella voimalla, hänen kunniansa väkevyyden jälkeen, kaikkeen kärsivällisyyteen ja pitkämielisyyteen ilon kanssa. 12 Ja kiittäkäät Isää, joka meitä soveliaaksi tehnyt on pyhäin perimisen osallisuuteen valkeudessa, 13 Joka meitä pimeyden vallasta pelasti ja on meidät siirtänyt rakkaan Poikansa valtakuntaan, 14 Jonka kautta meillä on lunastus hänen verensä kautta, nimittäin syntein anteeksi antamus, 15 Joka näkymättömän Jumalan kuva on, esikoinen ennen kaikkia luontokappaleita. 16 Sillä hänen kauttansa ovat kaikki luodut, jotka taivaassa ja maan päällä ovat, näkyväiset ja näkymättömät, thronit ja herraudet, vallat ja hallitukset: ne ovat kaikki hänen kauttansa ja häneen luodut. 17 Ja hän on ennen kaikkia ja kaikki ovat hänessä. 18 Ja hän on ruumiin, nimittäin seurakunnan pää, joka on alku ja esikoinen kuolleista, että hän kaikkein ylitse kävis; 19 Sillä niin kelpasi Isälle, että hänessä kokonainen täydellisyys asuis, 20 Ja kaikki olisivat hänen kauttansa hänen itse kanssansa sovitetut, sekä ne jotka maassa että ne jotka taivaissa ovat; sillä hän teki verensä kautta ristin päällä rauhan, itse kauttansa. 21 Ja te olitte muinen oudot ja viholliset ymmärryksen puolesta, pahoissa töissä; mutta nyt hän on teidät sovittanut, 22 Lihansa ruumiissa kuoleman kautta, että hän teidät saattais pyhäksi, laittamattomaksi ja nuhteettomaksi kasvoinsa edessä. 23 Jos te muutoin uskossa pysytte perustettuna ja vahvana ja horjumattomana evakeliumin toivosta, jonka te kuulitte, joka on saarnattu kaikkein luontokappalten edessä, jotka taivaan alla ovat; jonka palveliaksi minä Paavali tullut olen, 24 Joka nyt minun vaivoistani iloitsen, jotka minä kärsin teidän edestänne, ja täytän Kristuksen kärsimiset minun lihassani hänen ruumiinsa edestä, joka on seurakunta, 25 Jonka palveliaksi minä tullut olen Jumalan toimituksen jälkeen, joka minulle teidän kohtaanne annettu on, täyttämään Jumalan sanaa; 26 Sitä salaisuutta, joka ijankaikkisesta ja sukukunnista on salattu ollut, mutta nyt hänen pyhillensä ilmoitettu, 27 Joille Jumala tahtoi sen julistaa, mikä tämän salaisuuden kunniallinen rikkaus pakanain seassa on, joka on Kristus teissä, kunnian toivo, 28 Jonka me ilmoitamme, ja kaikkia ihmisiä neuvomme, ja kaikkia ihmisiä kaikkinaisessa viisaudessa opetamme, että me jokaisen ihmisen Kristuksessa Jesuksessa täydelliseksi saattaisimme: 29 Jota minä myös ahkeroitsen ja hänen vaikutuksensa jälkeen kilvoittelen, joka minussa väkevästi vaikuttaa.

Armo teille ja rauha Jumalalta, meidän Isältämme! 3 Me kiitämme Jumalaa, Herramme Jeesuksen Kristuksen Isää, aina kun rukoilemme teidän edestänne, 4 sillä me olemme saaneet kuulla teidän uskostanne Kristuksessa Jeesuksessa ja rakkaudesta, mikä teillä on kaikkia pyhiä kohtaan; 5 me kiitämme häntä sen toivon tähden, joka teille on talletettuna taivaissa ja josta jo ennen olette kuulleet sen evankeliumin totuuden sanassa, 6 joka on tullut teidän tykönne, niinkuin se on myös kaikessa maailmassa, missä se kantaa hedelmää ja kasvaa, samoin kuin teidänkin keskuudessanne siitä päivästä alkaen, jona te kuulitte ja opitte tuntemaan Jumalan armon totuudessa, 7 niinkuin te sen opitte Epafraalta, meidän rakkaalta kanssapalvelijaltamme, joka on uskollinen Kristuksen palvelija teidän hyväksenne 8 ja joka myös on kertonut meille teidän rakkaudestanne Hengessä. 9 Sentähden emme mekään, siitä päivästä alkaen, jona sen kuulimme, ole lakanneet teidän edestänne rukoilemasta ja anomasta, että tulisitte täyteen hänen tahtonsa tuntemista kaikessa hengellisessä viisaudessa ja ymmärtämisessä, 10 vaeltaaksenne Herran edessä arvollisesti, hänelle kaikessa otollisesti, kaikessa hyvässä työssä hedelmää kantaen ja kasvaen Jumalan tuntemisen kautta, 11 ja hänen kirkkautensa väkevyyden mukaan kaikella voimalla vahvistettuina olemaan kaikessa kestäviä ja pitkämielisiä, ilolla 12 kiittäen Isää, joka on tehnyt teidät soveliaiksi olemaan osalliset siitä perinnöstä, mikä pyhillä on valkeudessa, 13 häntä, joka on pelastanut meidät pimeyden vallasta ja siirtänyt meidät rakkaan Poikansa valtakuntaan. 14 Hänessä meillä on lunastus, syntien anteeksisaaminen, 15 ja hän on näkymättömän Jumalan kuva, esikoinen ennen kaikkea luomakuntaa. 16 Sillä hänessä luotiin kaikki, mikä taivaissa ja mikä maan päällä on, näkyväiset ja näkymättömät, olkoot ne valtaistuimia tai herrauksia, hallituksia tai valtoja, kaikki on luotu hänen kauttansa ja häneen, 17 ja hän on ennen kaikkia, ja hänessä pysyy kaikki voimassa. 18 Ja hän on ruumiin, se on: seurakunnan, pää; hän, joka on alku, esikoinen kuolleista nousseitten joukossa, että hän olisi kaikessa ensimmäinen. 19 Sillä Jumala näki hyväksi, että kaikki täyteys hänessä asuisi 20 ja että hän, tehden rauhan hänen ristinsä veren kautta, hänen kauttaan sovittaisi itsensä kanssa kaikki, hänen kauttaan kaikki sekä maan päällä että taivaissa. 21 Teidätkin, jotka ennen olitte vieraantuneet ja mieleltänne hänen vihamiehiänsä pahoissa teoissanne, hän nyt on sovittanut 22 Poikansa lihan ruumiissa kuoleman kautta, asettaakseen teidät pyhinä ja nuhteettomina ja moitteettomina eteensä, 23 jos te vain pysytte uskossa, siihen perustuneina ja siinä lujina, horjahtamatta pois sen evankeliumin toivosta, jonka olette kuulleet, jota on julistettu kaikessa luomakunnassa taivaan alla ja jonka palvelijaksi minä, Paavali, olen tullut. 24 Nyt minä iloitsen kärsiessäni teidän tähtenne, ja mikä vielä puuttuu Kristuksen ahdistuksista, sen minä täytän lihassani hänen ruumiinsa hyväksi, joka on seurakunta, 25 jonka palvelijaksi minä olen tullut Jumalan armotalouden mukaan, joka minulle on annettu teitä varten, täydellisesti julistaakseni Jumalan sanan, 26 sen salaisuuden, joka on ollut kätkettynä ikuisista ajoista ja polvesta polveen, mutta joka nyt on ilmoitettu hänen pyhillensä, 27 joille Jumala tahtoi tehdä tiettäväksi, kuinka suuri pakanain keskuudessa on tämän salaisuuden kirkkaus: Kristus teissä, kirkkauden toivo. 28 Ja häntä me julistamme, neuvoen jokaista ihmistä ja opettaen jokaista ihmistä kaikella viisaudella, asettaaksemme esiin jokaisen ihmisen täydellisenä Kristuksessa. 29 Sitä varten minä vaivaa näenkin, taistellen hänen vaikutuksensa mukaan, joka minussa voimallisesti vaikuttaa.
Haitian(i) 1 Se mwen menm Pòl, yon moun Bondye te deside chwazi pou sèvi apòt Jezikri, ansanm ak Timote, frè nou, k'ap ekri lèt sa a 2 voye bay tout pèp Bondye ki lavil Kolòs la, k'ap kenbe fèm nan lavi n'ap mennen ansanm tankou frè nan Kris la. Nou mande Bondye, Papa nou, pou li ban nou benediksyon ak kè poze. 3 Mwen pa janm sispann di Bondye, Papa Jezikri, Seyè nou an, mèsi lè m'ap lapriyè pou nou. 4 Mwen pran nouvel jan nou gen konfyans nan Jezikri, jan nou renmen tout moun ki fè pati pèp Bondye a. 5 Depi premye jou yo te fè nou konnen bon nouvèl la ki yon mesaj ki vre, nou te gen espwa jwenn sa Bondye sere pou nou nan syèl la. Se espwa sa a ki fè nou gen tout konfyans sa a ak tout renmen sa a nan kè nou. 6 Bon nouvel la gaye nan mitan nou depi premye jou nou te tande pale favè Bondye a, depi lè yo te fè nou konnen sa li ye tout bon an. Bon nouvèl sa a lakòz nou resevwa anpil benediksyon, menm jan li fè l' toupatou sou latè. 7 Se Epafras, yon bon zanmi k'ap travay ansanm avè m', ki te moutre nou tou sa. L'ap ede m' nan travay la tankou yon bon sèvitè Kris la. 8 Se li menm ki fè m' konnen renmen Lespri Bondye a ban nou. 9 Se poutèt sa, mwen pa janm sispann lapriyè Bondye pou nou depi jou mwen te rive konn sa. Mwen mande Bondye pou l' fè nou rive fin konnen volonte l' nèt ale, pou l' ban nou anpil lespri ak anpil konprann ki soti nan Sentespri. 10 Konsa, n'a viv jan Bondye vle l' la, n'a toujou fè sa ki fè l' plezi. N'a fè tout kalite bon bagay, n'a grandi nan konesans Bondye. 11 Mwen mande Bondye pou l' fòtifye nou tout jan ak bèl pouvwa li pou nou ka sipòte tout bagay avèk pasyans. 12 Ak kè kontan, se pou nou di Papa a mèsi, li menm ki ban nou privilèj resevwa pòsyon pa nou nan eritaj Bondye sere pou tout moun pa l' yo nan peyi limyè a. 13 Li rache nou anba pouvwa fènwa a, li fè nou antre nan peyi kote Pitit li renmen anpil la wa. 14 Se gremesi Pitit sa a nou delivre, nou resevwa padon pou peche nou yo. 15 Kris se pòtre Bondye, Bondye nou pa ka wè a. Se li menm ki premye pitit li. Li te la anvan tou sa Bondye te kreye. 16 Se ak li Bondye te kreye tou sa ki nan syèl la ak sou latè, sa nou wè ak sa nou pa wè. Se ak li li kreye tout lespri yo ki chita ap donminen, ki gen otorite, ki chèf epi ki gen pouvwa. Se ak Kris la Bondye te kreye yo tout, epi se pou li li te kreye yo. 17 Kris la te la anvan tout bagay. Se nan li yo tout jwenn plas yo. 18 Se li ki tèt legliz la, legliz la se kò li. Se li menm ki bay kò a lavi. Se li menm an premye ki te leve soti vivan nan lanmò pou l' te ka gen premye plas nan tout bagay. 19 Se Bondye menm ki te vle pou tou sa l' ye a, se sa pou Kris la ye tou. 20 Se li menm tou ki te vle fè tout bagay byen avè li ankò, gremesi Kris la, tou sa ki sou latè ak tou sa ki nan syèl la. Li mete lapè toupatou, gremesi san Kris la ki koule sou kwa a. 21 Nou menm tou, moun Kolòs, nan tan lontan, nou t'ap viv lwen Bondye. Nou te lènmi avè l' akòz tout bagay mal nou t'ap fè yo, ak tout move lide nou te gen nan tèt nou. 22 Men koulye a, gremesi Kris la ki mouri nan kò l' tankou yon moun, Bondye fè nou byen avè l' ankò pou nou ka parèt devan l' tankou moun k'ap viv apa pou li, san okenn tach, san okenn repwòch. 23 Men, gen yon kondisyon pou sa: se pou nou rete fèm, byen anrasinen nan konfyans nou, san nou pa pèdi espwa nou genyen depi lè nou te tande bon nouvèl la. Se bon nouvèl sa a yo te anonse bay tout moun sou latè epi se li menm, mwen menm Pòl, m'ap sèvi. 24 Koulye a, mwen kontan anpil dèske m'ap soufri pou nou. Paske, lè m'ap soufri nan kò pa m' konsa, m'ap bay pòsyon pa m' pou konplete tou sa ki manke nan soufrans Kris la pou legliz la ki kò li. 25 Wi, m'ap sèvi legliz la koulye a dapre travay Bondye ban m' fè pou nou an: travay sa a se pou m' anonse tout bagay ki nan mesaj li a, 26 pou m' fè tout moun konnen sekrè li te kenbe kache depi tout tan kifè pesonn pa t' konnen l'. Men koulye a, li devwale l' bay tout moun ki pou li. 27 Paske, Bondye vle fè moun pa l' yo konnen tout richès ak tout bèl pouvwa ki nan sekrè li te sere pou moun ki pa jwif yo. Men sekrè a: nou menm moun ki pa jwif yo, Kris la ap viv nan kè nou tou, li ban nou espwa nou gen pou n' patisipe nan bèl pouvwa Bondye a. 28 Konsa, m'ap fè tout moun konnen Kris la. M'ap bay tout moun konsèy, m'ap moutre yo tout bagay avè bon konprann, jan m' kapab pou yo tout ka parèt devan Bondye tankou granmoun ki byen grandi nan lavi y'ap mennen ansanm ak Kris la. 29 Se pou sa m'ap travay, se pou sa m'ap goumen ak tout pouvwa Kris la k'ap travay ak fòs nan mwen.
Hungarian(i) 1 Pál, Jézus Krisztusnak apostola Isten akaratjából, és Timótheus atyafi. 2 A Kolosséban levõ szenteknek és hívõ atyafiaknak a Krisztusban: kegyelem néktek és békesség Istentõl, a mi Atyánktól, és az Úr Jézus Krisztustól. 3 Hálát adunk az Istennek és a mi Urunk Jézus Krisztus Atyjának, mindenkor ti értetek könyörögvén, 4 Mivelhogy hallottuk a ti hiteteket a Krisztus Jézusban, és a szeretetet, a melylyel minden szentekhez vagytok, 5 A mennyekben néktek eltett reménységért, a melyet [már] elõbb hallottatok az igazság beszédében, mely az evangyéliom: 6 Mely eljutott hozzátok, miképen az egész világra is, és gyümölcsöt terem, úgy mint nálatok is a naptól fogva, melyen hallottátok és megismertétek az Isten kegyelmét igazán: 7 Úgy a hogy tanultátok is Epafrástól, a mi szerelmes szolgatársunktól, a ki hív szolgája ti érettetek a Krisztusnak, 8 A ki meg is jelentette nékünk a ti Lélekben való szereteteteket. 9 Azért mi is, a mely naptól fogva [ezeket] hallottuk, nem szûnünk meg érettetek imádkozni, és kérni, hogy betöltessetek az [Isten ]akaratának megismerésével minden lelki bölcseségben és értelemben, 10 Hogy járjatok méltóan az Úrhoz, teljes tetszésére, minden jó cselekedettel gyümölcsöt teremvén és nevekedvén az Isten megismerésében; 11 Minden erõvel megerõsíttetvén az Õ dicsõségének hatalma szerint minden kitartásra és hosszútûrésre örömmel; 12 Hálákat adván az Atyának, ki alkalmasakká tett minket a szentek örökségében való részvételre a világosságban; 13 A ki megszabadított minket a sötétség hatalmából, és általvitt az Õ szerelmes Fiának országába; 14 Kiben van a mi váltságunk az Õ vére által, bûneinknek bocsánata; 15 A ki képe a láthatatlan Istennek, minden teremtménynek elõtte született; 16 Mert Õ benne teremtetett minden, a mi van a mennyekben és a földön, láthatók és láthatatlanok, akár királyi székek, akár uraságok, akár fejedelemségek, akár hatalmasságok; mindenek Õ általa és Õ reá nézve teremttettek; 17 És Õ elõbb volt mindennél, és minden Õ benne áll fenn. 18 És Õ a feje a testnek, az egyháznak: a ki a kezdet, elsõszülött a halottak közül; hogy mindenekben Õ legyen az elsõ; 19 Mert tetszett [az Atyának,] hogy Õ benne lakozzék az egész teljesség; 20 És hogy Õ általa békéltessen meg mindent Magával, békességet szerezvén az Õ keresztjének vére által; Õ általa mindent, a mi csak van, akár a földön, akár a mennyekben. 21 Titeket is, kik hajdan elidegenültek és ellenségek valátok gonosz cselekedetekben [gyönyörködõ] értelmetek miatt, most mégis megbékéltetett. 22 Az Õ emberi testében a halál által, hogy mint szenteket, tisztákat és feddhetetleneket állasson titeket Õ maga elé: 23 Ha ugyan megmaradtok a hitben alaposan és erõsen, és el nem távoztok az evangyéliom reménységétõl, a melyet hallottatok, a mely hirdettetett minden teremtménynek az ég alatt; a melynek lettem én, Pál, szolgájává. 24 Most örülök a ti érettetek való szenvedéseimnek, és a magam részérõl betöltöm a mi híja van a Krisztus szenvedéseinek az én testemben az Õ testéért, a mi az egyház; 25 A melynek lettem én szolgájává az Isten sáfársága szerint, a melyet nékem adott ti rátok nézve, hogy betöltsem az Isten ígéjét, 26 [Tudniillik] ama titkot, mely el vala rejtve õsidõk óta és nemzetségek óta, most pedig megjelentetett az Õ szenteinek, 27 A kikkel az Isten meg akarta ismertetni azt, hogy milyen nagy a pogányok között eme titok dicsõségének gazdagsága, az [tudniillik,] hogy a Krisztus ti köztetek van, a dicsõségnek ama reménysége: 28 A kit mi prédikálunk, intvén minden embert, és tanítván minden embert minden bölcseséggel, hogy minden embert tökéletesnek állassunk elõ a Krisztus Jézusban; 29 A mire igyekezem is, tusakodván az Õ ereje szerint, mely én bennem hatalmasan munkálkodik.
Indonesian(i) 1 Saudara-saudara umat Allah di Kolose yang setia bersatu dengan Kristus! Sebagai rasul Kristus Yesus, --atas pengangkatan Allah--saya, Paulus, bersama-sama dengan saudara kita Timotius, mengharap semoga Allah Bapa kita memberi berkat dan sejahtera kepada kalian. 2 (1:1) 3 Kami sudah mendengar bahwa kalian percaya kepada Yesus Kristus dan kalian mengasihi semua umat Allah. Itulah sebabnya pada waktu kami berdoa untukmu, kami selalu mengucap terima kasih kepada Allah, Bapa Tuhan kita Yesus Kristus. 4 (1:3) 5 Kalian percaya dan kalian mengasihi, sebab kalian berharap akan apa yang disediakan di surga oleh Allah untukmu. Kalian sudah mendengar tentang hal itu, ketika Kabar Baik yang benar disampaikan kepadamu. 6 Kabar dari Allah itu tersebar ke seluruh dunia, dan hidup orang terus diberkati oleh kabar itu, sama seperti hidupmu diberkati sejak saat kalian mendengar tentang rahmat Allah dan benar-benar menghayatinya. 7 Hal itu disampaikan kepada Saudara oleh Epafras, rekan yang kami kasihi. Ia adalah pekerja Kristus yang setia bekerja untuk kepentingan kita. 8 Dari dialah kami mendengar bahwa dengan kuasa dari Roh Allah kalian dapat saling mengasihi. 9 Itulah sebabnya kami selalu berdoa untuk kalian sejak kami mendengar tentang kalian. Kami minta kepada Allah supaya Roh Allah memberikan kepadamu kebijaksanaan dan pengertian sehingga kalian mengetahui dengan sempurna apa kemauan Allah. 10 Dengan demikian kalian dapat hidup menurut kemauan Allah, dan selalu menyenangkan hati-Nya, sehingga dalam segala sesuatu kalian dapat menghasilkan hal-hal yang baik. Dan pengetahuan kalian tentang Allah pun akan bertambah juga. 11 Semoga dengan kuasa dari Allah yang agung, kalian dikuatkan sehingga kalian sanggup menderita segala sesuatu dengan sabar dan senang hati 12 dan dengan ucapan terima kasih kepada Bapa. Sebab Bapa itulah yang membuat kalian layak menerima apa yang disediakan Allah bagi umat-Nya di dalam kerajaan-Nya yang terang. 13 Ia sudah melepaskan kita dari kuasa kegelapan dan memindahkan kita ke dalam kerajaan Anak-Nya yang dikasihi-Nya. 14 Oleh Anak-Nya itu kita dibebaskan; berarti dosa-dosa kita sudah diampuni. 15 Kristus adalah gambar yang nyata dari diri Allah yang tidak kelihatan; Kristus adalah anak yang sulung, lebih utama dari segala yang diciptakan. 16 Sebab melalui Dialah Allah menciptakan segala sesuatu di surga dan di atas bumi, segala sesuatu yang kelihatan dan yang tidak kelihatan, termasuk juga segala roh yang berkuasa dan yang memerintah. Seluruh alam ini diciptakan melalui Kristus dan untuk Kristus. 17 Sebelum segala sesuatu ada, Kristus sudah terlebih dahulu ada. Dan karena Dialah juga maka segala sesuatu berada pada tempatnya masing-masing. 18 Ialah kepala dari tubuh-Nya, yaitu jemaat, karena Ialah sumber kehidupan jemaat itu. Ialah anak yang sulung, yang pertama-tama dihidupkan kembali dari kematian, supaya Dia sendiri saja yang menjadi terpenting dari segala sesuatu. 19 Allah sendirilah yang menghendaki supaya segala sesuatu yang terdapat pada diri Allah, terdapat juga dengan lengkap pada diri Anak-Nya. 20 Dan melalui Anak itu pula Allah memutuskan untuk membuat segala sesuatu berbaik kembali dengan Dia--baik segala sesuatu yang di bumi, maupun yang di surga. Allah melakukan itu melalui kematian Anak-Nya di kayu salib. 21 Dahulu kalian jauh dari Allah. Kalian memusuhi-Nya karena kelakuan dan pikiranmu jahat. 22 Tetapi sekarang, dengan kematian Anak-Nya, Allah membuat hubungan kalian dengan Dia menjadi baik kembali. Dengan cara itu kalian dapat dibawa menghadap Allah dalam keadaan yang suci, murni dan tanpa cela. 23 Tetapi tentu kalian harus tetap setia percaya dan berdiri teguh pada kepercayaanmu. Jangan sampai kalian melepaskan harapan yang sudah diberikan kepadamu ketika kalian menerima Kabar Baik dari Allah. Kabar itu sudah diberitakan kepada setiap orang di seluruh dunia. Dan untuk itulah juga saya, Paulus, sudah menjadi pelayan. 24 Sekarang saya senang menderita untuk kepentinganmu. Sebab dengan penderitaan jasmani saya, saya melengkapi apa yang masih harus diderita oleh Kristus untuk jemaat-Nya, yaitu tubuh-Nya. 25 Allah menyuruh saya menjadi pelayan jemaat-Nya untuk kepentinganmu. Saya harus menyampaikan berita dari Allah, seluruhnya; 26 yaitu berita yang selama berabad-abad yang lalu dirahasiakan oleh Allah kepada semua orang, tetapi sekarang dinyatakan kepada umat-Nya. 27 Kepada umat-Nya itu Allah mau menyatakan betapa baiknya dan agungnya rahasia-Nya itu untuk seluruh umat manusia. Rahasia itu ialah: Kristus ada dalam dirimu, yang berarti kalian akan turut menikmati kebesaran Allah. 28 Kristus itulah yang kami beritakan kepada setiap orang. Kami mengingatkan dan mengajar mereka semuanya dengan segala kebijaksanaan. Tujuan kami ialah supaya setiap orang dapat dibawa kepada Allah, sebagai orang yang dewasa dalam hal-hal rohani, karena sudah bersatu dengan Kristus. 29 Untuk mencapai hal itu saya bekerja keras. Saya berjuang dengan seluruh tenaga yang diberikan Kristus kepada saya dan yang bekerja dalam diri saya dengan penuh kuasa.
Italian(i) 1 PAOLO, apostolo di Gesù Cristo, per la volontà di Dio, e il fratello Timoteo; 2 a’ santi, e fedeli fratelli in Cristo, che sono in Colosse. Grazia a voi, e pace, da Dio nostro Padre, e dal Signor Gesù Cristo. 3 NOI rendiam grazie a Dio, e Padre del Signor nostro Gesù Cristo, facendo del continuo orazione per voi; 4 avendo udita la fede vostra in Cristo Gesù, e la vostra carità inverso tutti i santi; 5 per la speranza che vi è riposta ne’ cieli, la quale innanzi avete udita nella parola della verità dell’evangelo. 6 Il quale è pervenuto a voi, come ancora per tutto il mondo; e fruttifica, e cresce, siccome ancora fra voi, dal dì che voi udiste, e conosceste la grazia di Dio in verità. 7 Come ancora avete imparato da Epafra, nostro caro conservo, il quale è fedel ministro di Cristo per voi. 8 Il quale ancora ci ha dichiarata la vostra carità in Ispirito. 9 Perciò ancora noi, dal dì che abbiamo ciò udito, non restiamo di fare orazione per voi e di richiedere che siate ripieni della conoscenza della volontà d’esso in ogni sapienza, ed intelligenza spirituale. 10 Acciocchè camminiate condegnamente al Signore, per compiacergli in ogni cosa, fruttificando in ogni opera buona, e crescendo nella conoscenza di Dio; 11 essendo fortificati in ogni forza, secondo la possanza della sua gloria, ad ogni sofferenza e pazienza, con allegrezza; 12 rendendo grazie a Dio, e Padre, che ci ha fatti degni di partecipar la sorte de’ santi nella luce. 13 Il quale ci ha riscossi dalla podestà delle tenebre, e ci ha trasportati nel regno del Figliuolo dell’amor suo. 14 In cui abbiamo la redenzione per lo suo sangue, la remission de’ peccati. 15 EGLI è l’immagine dell’Iddio invisibile, il primogenito d’ogni creatura. 16 Poichè in lui sono state create tutte le cose, quelle che son ne’ cieli, e quelle che son sopra la terra; le cose visibili e le invisibili; e troni, e signorie, e principati, e podestà; tutte le cose sono state create per lui, e per cagione di lui. 17 Ed egli è avanti ogni cosa, e tutte le cose consistono in lui. 18 Ed egli stesso è il capo del corpo della chiesa; egli, dico, che è il principio, il primogenito da’ morti; acciocchè in ogni cosa tenga il primo grado. 19 Perciocchè è piaciuto al Padre che tutta la pienezza abiti in lui; 20 ed avendo fatta la pace per il sangue della croce d’esso, riconciliarsi per lui tutte le cose; così quelle che sono sopra la terra, come quelle che sono ne’ cieli. 21 E voi stessi, che già eravate alieni, e nemici con la mente, nelle opere malvage; 22 pure ora vi ha riconciliati nel corpo della sua carne, per la morte, per farvi comparire davanti a sè santi, ed irreprensibili, e senza colpa. 23 Se pure perseverate nella fede, essendo fondati e fermi; e non essendo smossi dalla speranza dell’evangelo che voi avete udito, il quale è stato predicato fra ogni creatura che è sotto il cielo; del quale io Paolo sono stato fatto ministro. 24 ORA mi rallegro nelle mie sofferenza per voi, e per mia vicenda compio nella mia carne ciò che resta ancora a compiere delle afflizioni di Cristo, per lo corpo d’esso, che è la chiesa. 25 Della quale io sono stato fatto ministro, secondo la dispensazione di Dio, che mi è stata data inverso voi, per compiere il servigio della parola di Dio. 26 Il misterio, che è stato occulto da secoli ed età; ed ora è stato manifestato a’ santi d’esso. 27 A’ quali Iddio ha voluto far conoscere quali sieno le ricchezze della gloria di questo misterio inverso i Gentili, che è Cristo in voi, speranza di gloria. 28 Il quale noi annunziamo, ammondendo, ed ammaestrando ogni uomo in ogni sapienza; acciocchè presentiamo ogni uomo compiuto in Cristo Gesù. 29 A che ancora io fatico, combattendo secondo la virtù d’esso, la quale opera in me con potenza.
ItalianRiveduta(i) 1 Paolo, apostolo di Cristo Gesù per volontà di Dio, e il fratello Timoteo, 2 ai santi e fedeli fratelli in Cristo che sono in Colosse, grazia a voi e pace da Dio nostro Padre. 3 Noi rendiamo grazie a Dio, Padre del Signor nostro Gesù Cristo, nelle continue preghiere che facciamo per voi, 4 avendo udito parlare della vostra fede in Cristo Gesù e dell’amore che avete per tutti i santi, 5 a motivo della speranza che vi è riposta nei cieli; speranza che avete da tempo conosciuta mediante la predicazione della verità del Vangelo 6 che è pervenuto sino a voi, come sta portando frutto e crescendo in tutto il mondo nel modo che fa pure tra voi dal giorno che udiste e conosceste la grazia di Dio in verità, 7 secondo quel che avete imparato da Epafra, il nostro caro compagno di servizio, che è fedel ministro di Cristo per voi, 8 e che ci ha anche fatto conoscere il vostro amore nello Spirito. 9 Perciò anche noi, dal giorno che abbiamo ciò udito, non cessiamo di pregare per voi, e di domandare che siate ripieni della profonda conoscenza della volontà di Dio in ogni sapienza e intelligenza spirituale, 10 affinché camminiate in modo degno del Signore per piacergli in ogni cosa, portando frutto in ogni opera buona e crescendo nella conoscenza di Dio; 11 essendo fortificati in ogni forza secondo la potenza della sua gloria, onde possiate essere in tutto pazienti e longanimi; 12 e rendendo grazie con allegrezza al Padre che vi ha messi in grado di partecipare alla sorte dei santi nella luce. 13 Egli ci ha riscossi dalla potestà delle tenebre e ci ha trasportati nel regno del suo amato Figliuolo, 14 nel quale abbiamo la redenzione, la remissione dei peccati; 15 il quale è l’immagine dell’invisibile Iddio, il primogenito d’ogni creatura; 16 poiché in lui sono state create tutte le cose, che sono nei cieli e sulla terra; le visibili e le invisibili; siano troni, siano signorie, siano principati, siano potestà; tutte le cose sono state create per mezzo di lui e in vista di lui; 17 ed egli è avanti ogni cosa, e tutte le cose sussistono in lui. 18 Ed egli è il capo del corpo, cioè della Chiesa; egli che è il principio, il primogenito dai morti, onde in ogni cosa abbia il primato. 19 Poiché in lui si compiacque il Padre di far abitare tutta la pienezza 20 e di riconciliare con sé tutte le cose per mezzo di lui, avendo fatto la pace mediante il sangue della croce d’esso; per mezzo di lui, dico, tanto le cose che sono sulla terra, quanto quelle che sono nei cieli. 21 E voi, che già eravate estranei e nemici nella vostra mente e nelle vostre opere malvage, 22 ora Iddio vi ha riconciliati nel corpo della carne di lui, per mezzo della morte d’esso, per farvi comparire davanti a sé santi e immacolati e irreprensibili, 23 se pur perseverate nella fede, fondati e saldi, e non essendo smossi dalla speranza dell’Evangelo che avete udito, che fu predicato in tutta la creazione sotto il cielo, e del quale io, Paolo, sono stato fatto ministro. 24 Ora io mi rallegro nelle mie sofferenze per voi; e quel che manca alle afflizioni di Cristo lo compio nella mia carne a pro del corpo di lui che è la Chiesa; 25 della quale io sono stato fatto ministro, secondo l’ufficio datomi da Dio per voi di annunziare nella sua pienezza la parola di Dio, 26 cioè, il mistero, che è stato occulto da tutti i secoli e da tutte le generazioni, ma che ora è stato manifestato ai santi di lui; 27 ai quali Iddio ha voluto far conoscere qual sia la ricchezza della gloria di questo mistero fra i Gentili, che è Cristo in voi, speranza della gloria; 28 il quale noi proclamiamo, ammonendo ciascun uomo e ciascun uomo ammaestrando in ogni sapienza, affinché presentiamo ogni uomo, perfetto in Cristo. 29 A questo fine io m’affatico, combattendo secondo l’energia sua, che opera in me con potenza.
Japanese(i) 1 神の御心によりてキリスト・イエスの使徒となれるパウロ及び兄弟テモテ、 2 書をコロサイに居る聖徒、キリストにありて忠實なる兄弟に贈る。願はくは我らの父なる神より賜ふ恩惠と平安と汝らに在らんことを。 3 我らは常に汝らの爲に祈りて、我らの主イエス・キリストの父なる神に感謝す。 4 これキリスト・イエスを信ずる汝らの信仰と、凡ての聖徒に對する汝らの愛とにつきて聞きたればなり。 5 かく聖徒を愛するは、汝らの爲に天に蓄へあるものを望むに因る。この望のことは汝らに及べる福音の眞の言によりて汝らが曾て聞きし所なり。 6 この福音は全世界にも及び、果を結びて増々大になれり。汝らが神の恩惠をききて眞に之を知りし日より、汝らの中に然りしが如し。 7 汝らが、我らと共に僕たる愛するエパフラスより學びたるは、この福音なり。彼は汝らの爲にキリストの忠實なる役者にして、 8 汝らが御靈によりて懷ける愛を我らに告げたり。 9 この故に我らこの事を聞きし日より、汝等のために絶えず祈りかつ求むるは、汝ら靈のもろもろの知慧と穎悟とをもて神の御意を具に知り、 10 凡てのこと主を悦ばせんが爲に、その御意に從ひて歩み、凡ての善き業によりて果を結び、いよいよ神を知り、 11 また神の榮光の勢威に隨ひて賜ふもろもろの力によりて強くなり、凡ての事よろこびて忍び、かつ耐へ、 12 而して我らを光にある聖徒の嗣業に與るに足る者とし給ひし父に感謝せん事なり。 13 父は我らを暗黒の權威より救ひ出して、その愛しみ給ふ御子の國に遷したまへり。 14 我らは御子に在りて贖罪すなはち罪の赦を得るなり。 15 彼は見得べからざる神の像にして、萬の造られし物の先に生れ給へる者なり。 16 萬の物は彼によりて造らる、天に在るもの、地に在るもの、見ゆるもの、見えぬもの、或は位、あるひは支配、あるひは政治、あるひは權威、みな彼によりて造られ、彼のために造られたればなり。 17 彼は萬の物より先にあり、萬の物は彼によりて保つことを得るなり。 18 而して彼はその體なる教會の首なり、彼は始にして死人の中より最先に生れ給ひし者なり。これ凡ての事に就きて長とならん爲なり。 19 神は凡ての滿ち足れる徳を彼に宿して、 20 その十字架の血によりて平和をなし、或は地にあるもの、或は天にあるもの、萬の物をして己と和がしむるを善しとし給ひたればなり。 21 汝等もとは惡しき業を行ひて神に遠ざかり、心にて其の敵となりしが、 22 今は神キリストの肉の體をもて、其の死により汝等をして己と和がしめ、潔く瑕なく責むべき所なくして、己の前に立たしめんし給ふなり。 23 汝等もし信仰に止り、之に基きて堅く立ち、福音の望より移らずば、斯くせらるることを得べし。此の福音は汝らの聞きし所、また天の下なる凡ての造られし物に宣傳へられたるものにして、我パウロはその役者となれり。 24 われ今なんぢらの爲に受くる苦難を喜び、又キリストの體なる教會のために、我が身をもてキリストの患難の缺けたるを補ふ。 25 われ神より汝等のために與へられたる職に隨ひて教會の役者となれり。 26 これ神の言、すなはち歴世歴代かくれて、今神の聖徒に顯れたる奧義を宣傳へんとてなり。 27 神は聖徒をして異邦人の中なるこの奧義の榮光の富の如何ばかりなるかを知らしめんと欲し給へり、此の奧義は汝らの中に在すキリストにして榮光の望なり。 28 我らは此のキリストを傳へ、知慧を盡して凡ての人を訓戒し、凡ての人を教ふ。これ凡ての人をしてキリストに在り、全くなりて神の前に立つことを得しめん爲なり。 29 われ之がために我が衷に能力をもて働き給ふものの活動にしたがひ、力を盡して勞するなり。

Korean(i) 1 하나님의 뜻으로 말미암아 그리스도 예수의 사도 된 바울과 형제 디모데는 2 골로새에 있는 성도들 곧 그리스도 안에서 신실한 형제들에게 편지하노니 우리 아버지 하나님으로부터 은혜와 평강이 너희에게 있을지어다 3 우리가 너희를 위하여 기도할 때마다 하나님 곧 우리 주 예수 그리스도의 아버지께 감사하노라 4 이는 그리스도 예수 안에 너희의 믿음과 모든 성도에 대한 사랑을 들음이요 5 너희를 위하여 하늘에 쌓아 둔 소망을 인함이니 곧 너희가 전에 복음 진리의 말씀을 들은 것이라 6 이 복음이 이미 너희에게 이르매 너희가 듣고 참으로 하나님의 은혜를 깨달은 날부터 너희 중에서와 같이 또한 온 천하에서도 열매를 맺어 자라는도다 7 이와 같이 우리와 함께 종 된 사랑하는 에바브라에게 너희가 배웠나니 그는 너희를 위하여 그리스도의 신실한 일군이요 8 성령 안에서 너희 사랑을 우리에게 고한 자니라 9 이로써 우리도 듣던 날부터 너희를 위하여 기도하기를 그치지 아니하고 구하노니 너희로 하여금 모든 신령한 지혜와 총명에 하나님의 뜻을 아는 것으로 채우게 하시고 10 주께 합당히 행하여 범사에 기쁘시게 하고 모든 선한 일에 열매를 맺게 하시며 하나님을 아는 것에 자라게 하시고 11 그 영광의 힘을 좇아 모든 능력으로 능하게 하시며 기쁨으로 모든 견딤과 오래 참음에 이르게 하시고 12 우리로 하여금 빛 가운데서 성도의 기업의 부분을 얻기에 합당하게 하신 아버지께 감사하게 하시기를 원하노라 13 그가 우리를 흑암의 권세에서 건져내사 그의 사랑의 아들의 나라로 옮기셨으니 14 그 아들 안에서 우리가 구속 곧 죄 사함을 얻었도다 15 그는 보이지 아니하시는 하나님의 형상이요 모든 창조물보다 먼저 나신 자니 16 만물이 그에게 창조되되 하늘과 땅에서 보이는 것들과 보이지 않는 것들과 혹은 보좌들이나 주관들이나 정사들이나 권세들이나 만물이 다 그로 말미암고 그를 위하여 창조되었고 17 또한 그가 만물보다 먼저 계시고 만물이 그 안에 함께 섰느니라 18 그는 몸인 교회의 머리라 그가 근본이요 죽은 자들 가운데서 먼저 나신 자니 이는 친히 만물의 으뜸이 되려 하심이요 19 아버지께서는 모든 충만으로 예수 안에 거하게 하시고 20 그의 십자가의 피로 화평을 이루사 만물 곧 땅에 있는 것들이나 하늘에 있는 것들을 그로 말미암아 자기와 화목케 되기를 기뻐하심이라 21 전에 악한 행실로 멀리 떠나 마음으로 원수가 되었던 너희를 22 이제는 그의 육체의 죽음으로 말미암아 화목케 하사 너희를 거룩하고 흠 없고 책망할 것이 없는 자로 그 앞에 세우고자 하셨으니 23 만일 너희가 믿음에 거하고 터 위에 굳게 서서 너희 들은 바 복음의 소망에서 흔들리지 아니하면 그리하리라 이 복음은 천하 만민에게 전파된 바요 나 바울은 이 복음의 일군이 되었노라 24 내가 이제 너희를 위하여 받는 괴로움을 기뻐하고 그리스도의 남은 고난을 그의 몸된 교회를 위하여 내 육체에 채우노라 25 내가 교회 일군 된 것은 하나님이 너희를 위하여 내게 주신 경륜을 따라 하나님의 말씀을 이루려 함이니라 26 이 비밀은 만세와 만대로부터 옴으로 감취었던 것인데 이제는 그의 성도들에게 나타났고 27 하나님이 그들로 하여금 이 비밀의 영광이 이방인 가운데 어떻게 풍성한 것을 알게 하려 하심이라 이 비밀은 너희 안에 계신 그리스도시니 곧 영광의 소망이니라 28 우리가 그를 전파하여 각 사람을 권하고 모든 지혜로 각 사람을 가르침은 각 사람을 그리스도 안에서 완전한 자로 세우려 함이니 29 이를 위하여 나도 내 속에서 능력으로 역사하시는 이의 역사를 따라 힘을 다하여 수고하노라
Latvian(i) 1 Pāvils, saskaņā ar Dieva prātu Jēzus Kristus apustulis, un brālis Timotejs 2 Tiem svētajiem, kas dzīvo Kolosā, un ticīgajiem brāļiem Kristū Jēzū: 3 Žēlastība jums un miers no Dieva, mūsu Tēva, un Kunga Jēzus Kristus! Mēs pateicamies Dievam un mūsu Kunga Jēzus Kristus Tēvam un vienmēr lūdzam par jums Dievu, 4 Jo dzirdējām, kāda ir jūsu ticība uz Jēzu Kristu un jūsu mīlestība uz visiem svētajiem. 5 Tās cerības dēļ, kas jums paredzēta debesīs, par ko jūs dzirdējāt evaņģēlija patiesības mācībā, 6 Kas aizgāja līdz jums un tāpat visā pasaulē nes augļus, un aug līdzīgi kā pie jums kopš tās dienas, kad jūs dzirdējāt un pazināt Dieva žēlastību patiesībā, 7 Kā to jums mācīja mūsu mīļais līdzstrādnieks Epafra, šis uzticamais Kristus kalps jūsu labā, 8 Kas stāstīja arī mums par jūsu mīlestību garā. 9 Tāpēc arī mēs kopš tās dienas, kad to dzirdējām, nebeidzam, Dievu piesauktdami, par jums lūgt, lai jūs tiktu piepildīti ar Viņa prāta atzīšanu visā garīgajā gudrībā un saprašanā, 10 Lai jūsu dzīve būtu Dieva cienīga un Viņam visumā patīkama, jo jūs nesīsiet augļus visos labos darbos un pieaugsiet Dieva apziņā, 11 Lai jūs, saskaņoti ar Viņa godības varenību, visā spēkā stiprināti, visā pacietībā un lēnprātībā priecīgi 12 Pateiktos Dievam Tēvam, kas mūs darījis cienīgus būt par līdzdalībniekiem svēto mantojuma gaismā. 13 Viņš izglāba mūs no tumsības varas un pārcēla sava mīļā Dēla valstībā. 14 Kurā mums caur Viņa asinīm pestīšana un grēku piedošana. 15 Viņš ir neredzamā Dieva attēls, visas radības pirmdzimtais, 16 Jo Viņā radīts viss, kas ir debesīs un virs zemes: redzamais un neredzamais, gan troņi, gan valdības, gan priekšnieki, gan varas: viss caur Viņu un Viņa dēļ radīts: 17 Un Viņš ir pirms visa, un viss pastāv Viņā. 18 Un Viņš ir miesas - Baznīcas galva. Viņš ir sākums, pirmdzimtais no mirušajiem, lai Viņš starp visiem būtu pirmais. 19 Un Viņam labpatika, ka visa pilnība mājotu Viņā, 20 Lai caur Viņu visu izlīdzinātu ar sevi, nodibinot ar savām krusta asinīm mieru gan to starpā, kas ir virs zemes, gan debesīs. 21 Arī jūs kādreiz bijāt atsvešinājušies un ar ļauniem darbiem naidīgi noskaņoti. 22 Bet tagad Viņš izlīdzinājis savā cilvēka miesā, izciezdams nāvi, lai jūs Viņa priekšā būtu svēti un neaptraipīti, un nevainojami, 23 Ja tikai paliksiet ticībā nesatricināmi un pastāvīgi un nenovērsīsieties no cerības, ko sniedz evaņģēlijs, ko jūs dzirdējāt un kas pasludināts visai radībai zem debess; tam arī es, Pāvils, kalpoju. 24 Tagad es priecājos savās ciešanās par jums, savā miesa papildinādams to, kas iztrūkst Kristus ciešanās, par Viņa miesu, kas ir Baznīca. 25 Tās kalps esmu kļuvis saskaņā ar Dieva rīkojumu, ko man devis jūsu dēļ, lai es piepildītu Dieva vārdu. 26 Noslēpums, kas no mūžiem un no paaudžu paaudzēm bija apslēpts, tagad ir atklāts Viņa svētajiem. 27 Dievs viņiem gribēja darīt zināmu, cik bagāta ir šī noslēpuma godība starp pagāniem; un tas ir Kristus, godības cerība jūsos. 28 Viņu mēs sludinām, pamudinādami katru cilvēku un mācīdami visā gudrībā, lai katru cilvēku darītu pilnīgu Jēzū Kristū. 29 Tāpēc es arī strādāju, cīnīdamies saskaņā ar Viņa darbību, kas manī izpaužas spēkā.
Lithuanian(i) 1 Paulius, Dievo valia Kristaus Jėzaus apaštalas, ir brolis Timotiejus,­ 2 šventiesiems ir ištikimiesiems broliams Kristuje, gyvenantiems Kolosuose: malonė ir ramybė jums nuo Dievo, mūsų Tėvo, ir mūsų Viešpaties Jėzaus Kristaus! 3 Nuolat melsdamiesi už jus, dėkojame Dievui, mūsų Viešpaties Jėzaus Kristaus Tėvui, 4 nes girdime apie jūsų tikėjimą Kristumi Jėzumi ir jūsų meilę visiems šventiesiems 5 dėl vilties, kuri jums paruošta danguje. Apie ją jūs esate girdėję Evangelijos tiesos žodyje, 6 kuris pasiekė jus ir panašiai kaip visame pasaulyje, taip ir pas jus neša vaisių ir auga nuo tos dienos, kada išgirdote ir pažinote Dievo malonę tiesoje. 7 To jūs išmokote iš mūsų mylimojo bendradarbio Epafro, kuris jums yra ištikimas Kristaus tarnas. 8 Jis ir davė žinią mums apie jūsų meilę Dvasioje. 9 Todėl ir mes nuo tos dienos, kada tai išgirdome, nesiliaujame už jus meldę ir prašę, kad jūs būtumėte pilni Dievo valios pažinimo su visa išmintimi ir dvasiniu supratimu, 10 kad elgtumėtės, kaip verta Viešpaties, ir Jam tobulai patiktumėte, nešdami vaisių gerais darbais ir augdami Dievo pažinimu; 11 kad, sustiprinti visokeriopa jėga iš Jo šlovės galios didžiai kantrybei ir ištvermei, su džiaugsmu 12 dėkotumėte Tėvui, kuris padarė mus tinkamus paveldėti šventųjų dalį šviesoje, 13 kuris išlaisvino mus iš tamsybių valdžios ir perkėlė į savo mylimojo Sūnaus karalystę. 14 Jame mes turime atpirkimą Jo krauju ir nuodėmių atleidimą. 15 Jis yra neregimojo Dievo atvaizdas, visos kūrinijos pirmagimis, 16 nes Juo sutverta visa, kas yra danguje ir žemėje, kas regima ir neregima; ar sostai, ar viešpatystės, ar kunigaikštystės, ar valdžios,­visa sutverta per Jį ir Jam. 17 Jis yra pirma visų daiktų, ir visa Juo laikosi. 18 Ir Jis yra kūno­bažnyčios galva. Jis­pradžia, pirmagimis iš mirusiųjų, kad visame kame turėtų pirmenybę. 19 Nes Tėvui patiko Jame apgyvendinti visą pilnatvę 20 ir per Jį visa sutaikinti su savimi, darant Jo kryžiaus krauju taiką,­per Jį sutaikinti visa, kas yra žemėje ir danguje. 21 Taip pat ir jus, kurie kadaise buvote svetimi ir priešiški savo protuose piktais darbais, Dievas dabar sutaikino 22 mirtimi Jo žemiškajame kūne, kad pasirodytumėte Jo akyse šventi, tyri ir nekalti, 23 jei tik pasiliekate tikėjime įsitvirtinę bei nepajudinami ir neatsitraukiate nuo Evangelijos vilties, kurią išgirdote, kuri paskelbta visai kūrinijai po dangumi ir kurios tarnu aš, Paulius, tapau. 24 Dabar aš džiaugiuosi savo kentėjimais už jus ir savo kūne papildau, ko dar trūksta Kristaus vargams dėl Jo kūno­bažnyčios. 25 Jos tarnu aš tapau Dievo patvarkymu, kuris duotas man dėl jūsų, kad išpildyčiau Dievo žodį, 26 tą paslaptį, kuri buvo paslėpta amžiams ir kartoms, o dabar apreikšta Jo šventiesiems. 27 Jiems Dievas panorėjo atskleisti, kokie šios paslapties šlovės turtai skirti pagonims, būtent Kristus jumyse­šlovės viltis. 28 Mes Jį skelbiame, įspėdami kiekvieną žmogų ir mokydami kiekvieną žmogų su visokeriopa išmintimi, kad kiekvieną žmogų padarytume tobulą Kristuje. 29 Dėl to aš ir darbuojuos, grumdamasis Jo suteikta jėga, kuri galingai veikia manyje.
PBG(i) 1 Paweł, Apostoł Jezusa Chrystusa przez wolę Bożą, i Tymoteusz brat, 2 Tym, którzy są w Kolosiech, świętym i wiernym braciom w Chrystusie Jezusie. Łaska wam i pokój niech będzie od Boga, Ojca naszego, i od Pana Jezusa Chrystusa. 3 Dziękujemy Bogu i Ojcu Pana naszego Jezusa Chrystusa, zawsze modląc się za was, 4 Usłyszawszy o wierze waszej w Chrystusie Jezusie i miłości przeciwko wszystkim świętym, 5 Dla nadziei onej wam odłożonej w niebiesiech, o którejście przedtem słyszeli przez słowo prawdy, to jest Ewangielii, 6 Która przyszła do was jako i na wszystek świat, i przynosi owoc, jako i u was, od onego dnia, któregoście usłyszeli i poznali łaskę Bożą w prawdzie. 7 Jakoście się też nauczyli od Epafry, miłego spółsługi naszego, który jest wiernym sługą Chrystusowym dla was; 8 Który też oznajmił nam miłość waszę w duchu. 9 Dlatego i my od onego dnia, któregośmy to usłyszeli, nie przestajemy się za was modlić i prosić, abyście byli napełnieni znajomością woli jego we wszelkiej mądrości i w wyrozumieniu duchownem. 10 Abyście chodzili przystojnie przed Panem ku wszelkiemu jego upodobaniu, w każdym uczynku dobrym owoc przynosząc i rosnąc w znajomości Bożej, 11 Wszelką mocą umocnieni będąc według chwalebnej mocy jego, ku wszelkiej cierpliwości i nieskwapliwości z radością, 12 Dziękując Ojcu, który nas godnymi uczynił, abyśmy byli uczestnikami dziedzictwa świętych w światłości; 13 Który nas wyrwał z mocy ciemności i przeniósł do królestwa Syna swego miłego, 14 W którym mamy odkupienie przez krew jego, to jest odpuszczenie grzechów; 15 Który jest obrazem Boga niewidzialnego i pierworodny wszystkich rzeczy stworzonych. 16 Albowiem przezeń stworzone są wszystkie rzeczy, które są na niebie i na ziemi, widzialne i niewidzialne, bądź trony, bądź państwa, bądź księstwa, bądź zwierzchności, wszystko przezeń i dla niego stworzone jest. 17 A on jest przed wszystkimi i wszystko w nim stoi. 18 On też jest głową ciała, to jest kościoła, który jest początkiem i pierworodnym z umarłych, aby on między wszystkimi przodkował; 19 Ponieważ się upodobało Ojcu, aby w nim wszystka zupełność mieszkała. 20 I żeby przezeń z sobą pojednał wszystko, uczyniwszy pokój przez krew krzyża jego; przezeń, mówię, tak to, co jest na ziemi, jako i to, co jest na niebiesiech. 21 I was, którzyście niekiedy byli oddaleni i nieprzyjaciele umysłem w złośliwych uczynkach, teraz też pojednał. 22 Ciałem własnem swojem przez śmierć, aby was wystawił świętemi i niepokalanemi, i bez nagany przed obliczem swojem; 23 Jeźli tylko trwacie w wierze ugruntowani i utwierdzeni, a nie poruszeni od nadziei Ewangielii, którąście słyszeli, która jest kazana wszelkiemu stworzeniu, które jest pod niebem, której ja Paweł stałem się sługą; 24 Który się teraz raduję w doległościach moich dla was i dopełniam ostatków ucisków Chrystusowych na ciele mojem za ciało jego, które jest kościół. 25 Któregom się ja stał sługą według daru Bożego, który mi jest dany dla was, abym wypełnił słowo Boże, 26 To jest, tajemnicę onę, która była zakryta od wieków i od rodzajów, ale teraz objawiona jest świętym jego. 27 Którym chciał Bóg oznajmić, jakie jest bogactwo tej tajemnicy chwalebnej między poganami, która jest Chrystus między wami, nadzieja ona chwały; 28 Którego my opowiadamy, napominając każdego człowieka i ucząc każdego człowieka we wszelkiej mądrości, abyśmy wystawili każdego człowieka doskonałym w Chrystusie Jezusie; 29 W czem też pracuję, bojując według skutecznej mocy jego, która we mnie dzieło swoje potężnie sprawuje.
Portuguese(i) 1 Paulo, apóstolo de Cristo Jesus pela vontade de Deus, e o irmão Timóteo, 2 aos santos e fiéis irmãos em Cristo que estão em Colossos: Graças a vós, e paz da parte de Deus nosso Pai. 3 Graças damos a Deus, Pai de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo, orando sempre por vós, 4 desde que ouvimos falar da vossa fé em Cristo Jesus, e do amor que tendes a todos os santos, 5 por causa da esperança que vos está reservada nos céus, da qual antes ouvistes pela palavra da verdade do evangelho, 6 que já chegou a vós, como também está em todo o mundo, frutificando e crescendo, assim como entre vós desde o dia em que ouvistes e conhecestes a graça de Deus em verdade, 7 segundo aprendestes de Epafras, nosso amado conservo, que por nós é fiel ministro de Cristo. 8 O qual também nos declarou o vosso amor no Espírito. 9 Por esta razão, nós também, desde o dia em que ouvimos, não cessamos de orar por vós, e de pedir que sejais cheios do pleno conhecimento da sua vontade, em toda a sabedoria e entendimento espiritual; 10 para que possais andar de maneira digna do Senhor, agradando-lhe em tudo, frutificando em toda boa obra, e crescendo no conhecimento de Deus, 11 corroborados com toda a fortaleza, segundo o poder da sua glória, para toda a perseverança e longanimidade com gozo; 12 dando graças ao Pai que vos fez idóneos para participar da herança dos santos na luz, 13 e que nos tirou do poder das trevas, e nos transportou para o reino do seu Filho amado; 14 em quem temos a redenção, a saber, a remissão dos pecados; 15 o qual é imagem do Deus invisível, o primogénito de toda a criação; 16 porque nele foram criadas todas as coisas nos céus e na terra, as visíveis e as invisíveis, sejam tronos, sejam dominações, sejam principados, sejam potestades; tudo foi criado por ele e para ele. 17 Ele é antes de todas as coisas, e nele subsistem todas as coisas; 18 também ele é a cabeça do corpo, da igreja; é o princípio, o primogénito dentre os mortos, para que em tudo tenha a preeminência, 19 porque aprouve a Deus que nele habitasse toda a plenitude, 20 e que, havendo por ele feito a paz pelo sangue da sua cruz, por meio dele reconciliasse consigo mesmo todas as coisas, tanto as que estão na terra como as que estão nos céus. 21 A vós também, que outrora éreis estranhos, e inimigos no entendimento pelas vossas obras más, 22 agora contudo vos reconciliou no corpo da sua carne, pela morte, a fim de perante ele vos apresentar santos, sem defeito e irrepreensíveis, 23 se é que permaneceis na fé, fundados e firmes, não vos deixando apartar da esperança do evangelho que ouvistes, e que foi pregado a toda criatura que há debaixo do céu, e do qual eu, Paulo, fui constituído ministro. 24 Agora me regozijo no meio dos meus sofrimentos por vós, e cumpro na minha carne o que resta das aflições de Cristo, por amor do seu corpo, que é a igreja; 25 da qual eu fui constituído ministro segundo a dispensação de Deus, que me foi concedida para convosco, a fim de cumprir a palavra de Deus, 26 o mistério que esteve oculto dos séculos, e das gerações; mas agora foi manifesto aos seus santos, 27 a quem Deus quis fazer conhecer quais são as riquezas da glória deste mistério entre os gentios, que é Cristo em vós, a esperança da glória; 28 o qual nós anunciamos, admoestando a todo homem, e ensinando a todo homem em toda a sabedoria, para que apresentemos todo homem perfeito em Cristo; 29 para isso também trabalho, lutando segundo a sua eficácia, que opera em mim poderosamente.
Norwegian(i) 1 Paulus, ved Guds vilje Kristi Jesu apostel, og broderen Timoteus 2 - til de hellige og troende brødre i Kristus i Kolossæ: Nåde være med eder og fred fra Gud vår Fader! 3 Vi takker alltid Gud og vår Herre Jesu Kristi Fader når vi beder for eder, 4 efterat vi har hørt om eders tro på Kristus Jesus og den kjærlighet som I har til alle de hellige, 5 for det håps skyld som er gjemt for eder i himlene, som I forut har hørt om ved sannhetens ord i evangeliet, 6 som er kommet til eder, likesom det og er i hele verden og bærer frukt og vokser som hos eder, fra den dag I hørte det og lærte å kjenne Guds nåde i sannhet, 7 således som I har lært av Epafras, vår elskede medtjener, som er en tro Kristi tjener for eder, 8 han som også har fortalt oss om eders kjærlighet i Ånden. 9 Derfor holder vi fra den dag vi hørte det, ikke op med å gjøre bønn for eder og bede at I må fylles med kunnskap om hans vilje i all åndelig visdom og forstand, 10 at I kan vandre verdig for Herren til velbehag i alt, så I bærer frukt og vokser i all god gjerning ved kunnskapen om Gud, 11 så I styrkes med all styrke efter hans herlighets kraft til all tålmodighet og langmodighet, 12 så I med glede takker Faderen, som gjorde oss skikkede til å få del i de helliges arvelodd i lyset, 13 han som fridde oss ut av mørkets makt og satte oss over i sin elskede Sønns rike, 14 i hvem vi har forløsningen, syndenes forlatelse. 15 Og han er et billede av Gud den usynlige, den førstefødte fremfor enhver skapning; 16 for i ham er alle ting skapt, de i himlene og de på jorden, de synlige og de usynlige, enten det så er troner eller herredømmer eller makter eller myndigheter; alt er det skapt ved ham og til ham, 17 og han er før alle ting, og alle ting står ved ham. 18 Og han er hovedet for legemet, som er menigheten, han som er ophavet, den førstefødte av de døde, forat han i alle deler skulde være den ypperste; 19 for det var Guds vilje at hele hans fylde skulde ta bolig i ham, 20 og ved ham å forlike alle ting med sig, idet han gjorde fred ved hans korses blod, - ved ham, enten det er de på jorden eller de i himlene. 21 Også eder, som fordum var fremmede og fiender ved eders sinnelag, i de onde gjerninger, 22 eder har han nu forlikt i hans jordiske legeme ved døden, for å fremstille eder hellige og ulastelige og ustraffelige for sitt åsyn, 23 så sant I blir ved i troen, grunnfestet og faste, og ikke lar eder rokke fra det håp evangeliet gir, det som I har hørt, som er blitt forkynt for enhver skapning under himmelen, og som jeg, Paulus, er blitt tjener for. 24 Nu gleder jeg mig over mine lidelser for eder og utfyller i mitt kjød det som ennu fattes i Kristi trengsler, for hans legeme, som er menigheten, 25 hvis tjener jeg er blitt efter den Guds husholdning som er mig gitt iblandt eder, det vil si å fullføre Guds ord, 26 den hemmelighet som har vært skjult fra alle tiders og slekters ophav, men nu er blitt åpenbaret for hans hellige, 27 for hvem Gud vilde kunngjøre hvor rik på herlighet denne hemmelighet er iblandt hedningene, det er Kristus iblandt eder, håpet om herlighet. 28 Og ham forkynner vi, idet vi formaner hvert menneske og lærer hvert menneske med all visdom for å fremstille hvert menneske fullkomment i Kristus. 29 For dette arbeider jeg og, idet jeg strider ved hans kraft, som virker i mig med styrke.
Romanian(i) 1 Pavel, apostol al lui Isus Hristos, prin voia lui Dumnezeu, şi fratele Timotei, 2 către sfinţii şi fraţii credincioşi în Hristos, cari sînt în Colose: Har şi pace dela Dumnezeu, Tatăl nostru, şi dela Domnul Isus Hristos. 3 Mulţămim lui Dumnezeu, Tatăl Domnului nostru Isus Hristos, căci ne rugăm neîncetat pentru voi, 4 şi am auzit despre credinţa voastră în Hristos Isus, şi despre dragostea, pe care o aveţi faţă de toţi sfinţii, 5 din pricina nădejdii care vă aşteaptă în ceruri şi despre care aţi auzit mai înainte în cuvîntul adevărului Evangheliei, 6 care a ajuns pînă la voi şi este în toată lumea, unde dă roade şi merge crescînd, ca şi între voi. Şi aceasta, din ziua în care aţi auzit şi aţi cunoscut harul lui Dumnezeu, în adevăr, 7 cum aţi învăţat dela Epafras, prea iubitul nostru tovarăş de slujbă. El este un credincios slujitor al lui Hristos pentru voi, 8 şi ne -a vorbit despre dragostea voastră în Duhul. 9 De aceea şi noi, din ziua cînd am auzit aceste lucruri, nu încetăm să ne rugăm pentru voi, şi să cerem să vă umpleţi de cunoştinţa voiei Lui, în orice fel de înţelepciune şi pricepere duhovnicească; 10 pentruca astfel să vă purtaţi într'un chip vrednic de Domnul, ca să -I fiţi plăcuţi în orice lucru: aducînd roade în tot felul de fapte bune, şi crescînd în cunoştinţa lui Dumnezeu: 11 întăriţi, cu toată puterea, potrivit cu tăria slavei Lui, pentru orice răbdare şi îndelungă răbdare, cu bucurie, 12 mulţămind Tatălui, care v'a învrednicit să aveţi parte de moştenirea sfinţilor, în lumină. 13 El ne -a izbăvit de supt puterea întunerecului, şi ne -a strămutat în Împărăţia Fiului dragostei Lui, 14 în care avem răscumpărarea, prin sîngele Lui, iertarea păcatelor. 15 El este chipul Dumnezeului celui nevăzut, cel întîi născut din toată zidirea. 16 Pentrucă prin El au fost făcute toate lucrurile cari sînt în ceruri şi pe pămînt, cele văzute şi cele nevăzute: fie scaune de domnii, fie dregătorii, fie domnii, fie stăpîniri. Toate au fost făcute prin El şi pentru El. 17 El este mai înainte de toate lucrurile, şi toate se ţin prin El. 18 El este Capul trupului, al Bisericii. El este începutul, cel întîi născut dintre cei morţi, pentruca în toate lucrurile să aibă întîietatea. 19 Căci Dumnezeu a vrut ca toată plinătatea să locuiască în El, 20 şi să împace totul cu Sine prin El, atît ce este pe pămînt cît şi ce este în ceruri, făcînd pace, prin sîngele crucii Lui. 21 Şi pe voi, cari odinioară eraţi străini şi vrăjmaşi prin gîndurile şi prin faptele voastre rele, El v'a împăcat acum 22 prin trupul Lui de carne, prin moarte, ca să vă facă să vă înfăţişaţi înaintea Lui sfinţi, fără prihană şi fără vină; 23 negreşit, dacă rămîneţi şi mai departe întemeiaţi şi neclintiţi în credinţă, fără să vă abateţi dela nădejdea Evangheliei, pe care aţi auzit -o, care a fost propovăduită oricărei făpturi de supt cer, şi al cărei slujitor am fost făcut eu, Pavel. 24 Mă bucur acum în suferinţele mele pentru voi; şi în trupul meu, împlinesc ce lipseşte suferinţelor lui Hristos, pentru trupul Lui, care este Biserica. 25 Slujitorul ei am fost făcut eu, după isprăvnicia, pe care mi -a dat -o Dumnezeu pentru voi ca să întregesc Cuvîntul lui Dumnezeu. 26 Vreau să zic: taina ţinută ascunsă din vecinicii şi în toate veacurile, dar descoperită acum sfinţilor Lui, 27 cărora Dumnezeu a voit să le facă cunoscut care este bogăţia slavei tainei acesteia între Neamuri, şi anume: Hristos în voi, nădejdea slavei. 28 Pe El Îl propovăduim noi, şi sfătuim pe orice om, şi învăţăm pe orice om în toată înţelepciunea, ca să înfăţişăm pe orice om, desăvîrşit în Hristos Isus. 29 Iată la ce lucrez eu, şi mă lupt după lucrarea puterii Lui, care lucrează cu tărie în mine.
Ukrainian(i) 1 Павло, із волі Божої апостол Христа Ісуса, і брат Тимофій 2 до святих і вірних братів у Христі, що в Колосах: благодать вам і мир від Бога, Отця нашого! 3 Ми дякуємо Богові, Отцеві Господа нашого Ісуса Христа, завжди за вас молячись, 4 прочувши про вашу віру в Христа Ісуса та про любов, яку маєте до всіх святих 5 через надію, приготовану в небі для вас, що про неї давніше ви чули в слові істини Євангелії, 6 що до вас прибула, і на цілому світі плодоносна й росте, як і в вас, з того дня, коли ви почули й пізнали благодать Божу в правді. 7 Отак ви і навчилися від Епафра, улюбленого співробітника нашого, що за вас він вірний служитель Христа, 8 що й виявив нам про вашу духовну любов. 9 Через це то й ми з того дня, як почули, не перестаємо молитись за вас та просити, щоб для пізнання волі Його були ви наповнені всякою мудрістю й розумом духовним, 10 щоб ви поводилися належно щодо Господа в усякому догодженні, в усякому доброму ділі приносячи плід і зростаючи в пізнанні Бога, 11 зміцняючись усякою силою за могучістю слави Його для всякої витривалости й довготерпіння з радістю, 12 дякуючи Отцеві, що вчинив нас достойними участи в спадщині святих у світлі, 13 що визволив нас із влади темряви й переставив нас до Царства Свого улюбленого Сина, 14 в Якім маємо відкуплення і прощення гріхів. 15 Він є образ невидимого Бога, роджений перш усякого творива. 16 Бо то Ним створено все на небі й на землі, видиме й невидиме, чи то престоли, чи то господства, чи то влади, чи то начальства, усе через Нього й для Нього створено! 17 А Він є перший від усього, і все Ним стоїть. 18 І Він Голова тіла, Церкви. Він початок, первороджений з мертвих, щоб у всьому Він мав першенство. 19 Бо вгодно було, щоб у Нім перебувала вся повнота, 20 і щоб Ним поєднати з Собою все, примиривши кров'ю хреста Його, через Нього, чи то земне, чи то небесне. 21 І вас, що були колись відчужені й вороги думкою в злих учинках, 22 тепер же примирив смертю в людськім тілі Його, щоб учинити вас святими, і непорочними, і неповинними перед Собою, 23 якщо тільки пробуваєте в вірі тверді та сталі, і не відпадаєте від надії Євангелії, що ви чули її, яка проповідана всьому створінню під небом, якій я, Павло, став служителем. 24 Тепер я радію в стражданнях своїх за вас, і доповнюю недостачу скорботи Христової в тілі своїм за тіло Його, що воно Церква; 25 якій я став служителем за Божим зарядженням, що для вас мені дане, щоб виконати Слово Боже, 26 Таємницю, заховану від віків і поколінь, а тепер виявлену Його святим, 27 що їм Бог захотів показати, яке багатство слави цієї таємниці між поганами, а вона Христос у вас, надія слави! 28 Його ми проповідуємо, нагадуючи кожній людині й навчаючи кожну людину всякої мудрости, щоб учинити кожну людину досконалою в Христі. 29 У тому й працюю я, борючися силою Його, яка сильно діє в мені.
UkrainianNT(i) 1 Павел, апостол Ісус-Христа волею Божою, та Тимотей брат, 2 до сьвятих і вірних братів у Христї, що в Колосах: Благодать вам і мир од Бога, Отця нашого, і Господа Ісуса Христа. 3 Дякуємо Богу й Отцеві Господа нашого Ісуса Христа, молячись всякого часу за вас, 4 почувши про віру вашу в Христї Ісусї і любов, що маєте до всїх сьвятих, 5 задля надії, що зложена для вас на небесах, про яку ви чували перше в слові правди благовіствування, 6 що прийшло до вас, яко ж і до всього сьвіта, і дав овощ, яко ж і в вас, від того дня, як ви почули і зрозуміли благодать Божу в правдї, 7 яко ж і навчились од Єпафра, любого нашого товариша слуги, котрий єсть вірний служитель Христів, за вас, 8 котрий і явив нам вашу любов у дусї. 9 Того-то й ми, від того дня, як почули, не перестаємо за вас молитись і просити, щоб ви сповнились розуміннєм волї Його у всякій премудрости і розумі духовному, 10 щоб ходити вам достойно перед Господом у всякому догоджуванню, і у всякому доброму дїлї приносячи овощ і ростучи в розумінню Бога, 11 кріпшаючи усякою силою по потузї слави Його на всяке видержуваннє і довготерпінне з радощами, 12 дякуючи Отцеві, котрий зробив нас достойними спільности в наслїд-дю сьвятих у сьвітлї, 13 котрий збавив нас од власти тьми і перенїс у царство Сина любови своєї, 14 в котрому маємо викуп кровю Його і прощенне гріхів. 15 Котрий єсть образ невидомого Бога, перворідень усякого творива. 16 Бо Ним сотворене все, що на небесах і що на землї, видиме й невидиме, чи престоли, чи панства, чи князівства, чи власті, - все Ним і для Него сотворене. 17 Він єсть перш усього, і все в Ньому стоїть. 18 І Він голова тїлу і церкві. Він початок, перворідень з мертвих, щоб у всьому Йому передувати. 19 Бо зволив (Отець), щоб у Ньому вселилась уся повня, 20 і щоб через Него поєднати все з собою, примиривши кровю хреста Його, через Него, чи то земне, чи то небесне. 21 І вас, що були колись відчуженими і ворогували думкою у лукавих ділах, тепер же примирив 22 у тїлї плоти Його смертю, щоб поставити вас сьвятими и непорочними й неповинними перед собою, 23 коли оце пробуваєте в вірі основані і тверді, і неподвижимі в упованнї благовістя, котре чули проповідуване усьому твориву піднебесному, котрому став я Павел служителем. 24 Тепер радуюсь у страданнях моїх за вас, і доповняю недостаток горювання Христового у тїлї моїм (смертному) за тіло Його, котре єсть церква, 25 котрої став я слугою по доморядництву Божому, даному мені про вас, щоб сповнити слово Боже, 26 тайну закриту од віків і од родів, тепер же явлену сьвятим Його, 27 котрим Бог зводив обявити, яке багацтво слави тайни сієї між поганами, котре всть Христос в вас, надїя слави, 28 котрого ми проповідуємо, наставляючи кожного чоловіка всякої премудроети, щоб нам представити кожного чоловіка звершеного в Христї Ісусї 29 У чому й працюю, воюючи силою Його, що орудує в мені потужно.
