Chapter 2

1 For1063 I would2309 that ye5209 knew1492 what great2245 conflict73 I have2192 for4012 you,5216 and2532 for them3588 at1722 Laodicea,2993 and2532 for as many as3745 have not3756 seen3708 my3450 face4383 in1722 the flesh;4561

2 That2443 their846 hearts2588 might be comforted,3870 being knit together4822 in1722 love,26 and2532 unto1519 all3956 riches4149 of the3588 full assurance4136 of understanding,4907 to1519 the acknowledgement1922 of the3588 mystery3466 of God,2316 and2532 of the Father,3962 and2532 of Christ;5547

3 In1722 whom3739 are1526 hid614 all3956 the3588 treasures2344 of wisdom4678 and2532 knowledge.1108

4 And1161 this5124 I say,3004 lest3363 any man5100 should beguile3884 you5209 with1722 enticing words.4086

5 For1063 though1487 2532 I be absent548 in the3588 flesh,4561 yet235 am1510 I with4862 you5213 in the3588 spirit,4151 joying5463 and2532 beholding991 your5216 order,5010 and2532 the3588 steadfastness4733 of your5216 faith4102 in1519 Christ.5547

6 As5613 ye have therefore3767 received3880 Christ5547 Jesus2424 the3588 Lord,2962 so walk4043 ye in1722 him: 846

7 Rooted4492 and2532 built up2026 in1722 him,846 and2532 established950 in1722 the3588 faith,4102 as2531 ye have been taught,1321 abounding4052 therein1722 846 with1722 thanksgiving.2169

8 Beware991 lest3361 any man5100 spoil4812 you5209 through1223 philosophy5385 and2532 vain2756 deceit,539 after2596 the3588 tradition3862 of men,444 after2596 the3588 rudiments4747 of the3588 world,2889 and2532 not3756 after2596 Christ.5547

9 For3754 in1722 him846 dwelleth2730 all3956 the3588 fullness4138 of the3588 Godhead2320 bodily.4985

10 And2532 ye are2075 complete4137 in1722 him,846 which3739 is2076 the3588 head2776 of all3956 principality746 and2532 power: 1849

11 In1722 whom3739 also2532 ye are circumcised4059 with the circumcision4061 made without hands,886 in1722 putting off555 the3588 body4983 of the3588 sins266 of the3588 flesh4561 by1722 the3588 circumcision4061 of Christ: 5547

12 Buried with4916 him846 in1722 baptism,908 wherein1722 3739 also2532 ye are risen with4891 him through1223 the3588 faith4102 of the3588 operation1753 of God,2316 who hath raised1453 him846 from1537 the3588 dead.3498

13 And2532 you,5209 being5607 dead3498 in1722 your sins3900 and2532 the3588 uncircumcision203 of your5216 flesh,4561 hath he quickened together4806 with4862 him,846 having forgiven5483 you5213 all3956 trespasses;3900

14 Blotting out1813 the3588 handwriting5498 of ordinances1378 that was against2596 us,2257 which3739 was2258 contrary5227 to us,2254 and2532 took142 it846 out of1537 the3588 way,3319 nailing4338 it846 to his cross;4716

15 And having spoiled554 principalities746 and2532 powers,1849 he made a show1165 of them openly,1722 3954 triumphing over2358 them846 in1722 it.848

16 Let no3361 man5100 therefore3767 judge2919 you5209 in1722 meat,1035 or2228 in1722 drink,4213 or2228 in1722 respect3313 of a holy day,1859 or2228 of the new moon,3561 or2228 of the sabbath4521 days:

17 Which3739 are2076 a shadow4639 of things to come;3195 but1161 the3588 body4983 is of Christ.5547

18 Let no man3367 beguile you of your reward2603 5209 in a voluntary humility2309 1722 5012 and2532 worshiping2356 of angels,32 intruding into1687 those things which3739 he hath not3361 seen,3708 vainly1500 puffed up5448 by5259 his848 fleshly4561 mind,3563

19 And2532 not3756 holding2902 the3588 Head,2776 from1537 which3739 all3956 the3588 body4983 by1223 joints860 and2532 bands4886 having nourishment ministered,2023 and2532 knit together,4822 increaseth837 with the3588 increase838 of God.2316

20 Wherefore3767 if1487 ye be dead599 with4862 Christ5547 from575 the3588 rudiments4747 of the3588 world,2889 why,5101 as though5613 living2198 in1722 the world,2889 are ye subject to ordinances,1379

21 (Touch680 not;3361 taste1089 not;3366 handle2345 not;3366

22 Which3739 all3956 are2076 to perish1519 5356 with the3588 using;)671 after2596 the3588 commandments1778 and2532 doctrines1319 of men?444

23 Which things3748 have2076 2192 indeed3303 a show3056 of wisdom4678 in1722 will-worship,1479 and2532 humility,5012 and2532 neglecting857 of the body;4983 not3756 in1722 any5100 honor5092 to4314 the satisfying4140 of the3588 flesh.4561

Colossians

Chapter 2

1 I WOULD that you knew how I struggled for your sakes and for the sake of those who are at La-od-i-ce'a, and for the rest who have not seen me personally;

2 That their hearts may be comforted, and that they may be brought near by love to all the riches of the full assurance of understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, the Father, and of Christ,

3 In whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

4 And I say this, so that no man may beguile you with enticing words.

5 For though I am far away from you in the flesh, yet I am with you in spirit, and I rejoice to see your orderliness and the sincerity of your faith in Christ.

6 Just as you have therefore accepted Jesus Christ our LORD, so you must be led by him:

7 Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith as you have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

8 Beware lest any man mislead you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the teaching of men, after the principles of the world, and not after Christ.

9 For in him is embodied all the fulness of the Godhead.

10 And it is through him that you also have been made complete, for he is the head of all angelic orders and powers:

11 In whom also you are circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in putting off the sinful body by the circumcision of Christ:

12 And you were buried with him in baptism, and by him you were raised with him, for you believed in the power of God who raised him from the dead.

13 And you, who once were dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, he has granted to live with him, and he has forgiven you all your sins;

14 And by his commandments he cancelled the written bond of our sins, which stood against us; and he took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

15 And by putting off his mortal body, he exposed the powers of evil, and through his person put them openly to shame.

16 Let no man therefore create a disturbance among you about eating and drinking, or about the division of the feast days, the beginning of the months and the day of the sabbath:

17 These are shadows of things to come; but the main objective is Christ.

18 Let no man, by pretense of sincerity, doom you, so that you worship angels; for he is bold about the things he has not seen, and foolishly he is proud of his intellectual powers.

19 That very person does not uphold the Head by which the whole body is constructed and stands with the joints and members; and grows through the discipline of God.

20 Therefore, if you have died with Christ and are apart from the principles of the world why then should you be doomed as though living in the world?

21 Do not touch; do not taste; do not follow;

22 For these things are customs which are changeable and they are the commandments and doctrines of men.

23 And it appears there is some word of wisdom in these things when presented by the humble person in fear of God; provided they disregard the things of the flesh, not those things which are honourable but only those things which satisfy the pleasure of the flesh.

10 And it is through him that you also have been made complete, for he is the head of all angelic orders and powers:

11 In1722 whom3739 also2532 ye are circumcised4059 with the circumcision4061 made without hands,886 in1722 putting off555 the3588 body4983 of the3588 sins266 of the3588 flesh4561 by1722 the3588 circumcision4061 of Christ: 5547

11 In whom also you are circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in putting off the sinful body by the circumcision of Christ:

19 And2532 not3756 holding2902 the3588 Head,2776 from1537 which3739 all3956 the3588 body4983 by1223 joints860 and2532 bands4886 having nourishment ministered,2023 and2532 knit together,4822 increaseth837 with the3588 increase838 of God.2316

19 That very person does not uphold the Head by which the whole body is constructed and stands with the joints and members; and grows through the discipline of God.

20 Wherefore3767 if1487 ye be dead599 with4862 Christ5547 from575 the3588 rudiments4747 of the3588 world,2889 why,5101 as though5613 living2198 in1722 the world,2889 are ye subject to ordinances,1379

20 Therefore, if you have died with Christ and are apart from the principles of the world why then should you be doomed as though living in the world?

21 (Touch680 not;3361 taste1089 not;3366 handle2345 not;3366
