of the love

For

which
<3588>

is laid up
<606> (5740)

for you
<5213>

in

<3056>

of the truth
<225>

of the gospel

1:6

Which
<3588>

is come

knew
<1921> (5627)

the grace
<5485>

of God
<2316>

in
<1722>

truth
<225>_:

1:7

As
<2531>

ye
<3129> (0)

also
<2532>

learned
<3129> (5627)

of
<575>

Epaphras
<1889>

our

for
<5228>

you

the Spirit
<4151>_.

1:9

For
<1223>

this cause
<5124>

we
<2249>

also
<2532>_,

since
<575>

the

day
<2250>

we heard
<191> (5656)

[it], do
<3973> (0)

not
<3756>

cease
<3973> (5731)

to pray
<4336> (5740)

for
<5228>

you
<5216>_,

and
<2532>

to desire
<154> (5734)

that
<2443>

ye might be filled
<4137> (5686)

with the knowledge
<1922>

<1722>

all
<3956>

wisdom
<4678>

and

spiritual
<4152>

understanding
<4907>_;

1:10

That ye
<5209>

might walk
<4043> (5658)

worthy
<516>

of the Lord
<2962>

unto
<1519>

all
<3956>

pleasing
<699>_,

being fruitful
<2592> (5723)

in
<1722>

every
<3956>

good
<18>

work
<2041>_,

and
<2532>

increasing
<837> (5746)

in
<1519>

the knowledge
<1922>

of God
<2316>_;

1:11

Strengthened
<1412> (5746)

with
<1722>

all
<3956>

might
<1411>_,

according to
<2596>

his
<846>

glorious

<1519>

all
<3956>

patience
<5281>

and

longsuffering
<3115>

with
<3326>

joyfulness
<5479>_;

1:12

Giving thanks
<2168> (5723)

unto the Father
<3962>_,

which
<3588>

hath made
<2427> (0)

us
<2248>

meet
<2427> (5660)

to
<1519>

be partakers
<3310>

of the inheritance
<2819>

of the saints
<40>

in
<1722>

light
<5457>_:

1:13

Who
<3739>

hath delivered
<4506> (5673)

us
<2248>

from
<1537>

the power
<1849>

of darkness
<4655>_,

and
<2532>

hath translated
<3179> (5656)

[us] into
<1519>

the kingdom
<932>

of his
<846>

dear
<26>

Son
<5207>_:

{his...: Gr. the Son of his love}

1:14

In
<1722>

whom
<3739>

we have
<2192> (5719)

redemption
<629>

through
<1223>

his
<846>

blood
<129>_,

[even] the forgiveness
<859>

of sins
<266>_:

1:15

Who
<3739>

is
<2076> (5748)

the image
<1504>

of the invisible
<517>

God
<2316>_,

the firstborn
<4416>

of every
<3956>

creature
<2937>_:

1:16

For
<3754>

by
<1722>

him
<846>

were
<2936> (0)

all things
<3956>

created
<2936> (5681)_,

that are in
<1722>

heaven
<3772>_,

and
<2532>

that are in
<1909>

earth
<1093>_,

visible
<3707>

and
<2532>

invisible
<517>_,

whether
<1535>

[they be] thrones
<2362>_,

or
<1535>

dominions
<2963>_,

or
<1535>

principalities
<746>_,

or
<1535>

powers
<1849>_:

all things
<3956>

were created
<2936> (5769)

by
<1223>

him
<846>_,

and
<2532>

for
<1519>

him
<846>_:

1:17

And
<2532>

he
<846>

is
<2076> (5748)

before
<4253>

all things
<3956>_,

and
<2532>

by
<1722>

him
<846>

all things
<3956>

consist
<4921> (5758)_.

1:18

And
<2532>

he
<846>

is
<2076> (5748)

the head
<2776>

of the body
<4983>_,

the church
<1577>_:

who
<3739>

is
<2076> (5748)

the beginning
<746>_,

the firstborn
<4416>

from
<1537>

the dead
<3498>_;

that
<2443>

in
<1722>

all
<3956>

[things] he
<846>

might have
<1096> (5638)

the preeminence
<4409> (5723)_.

{in...: or, among all}

1:19

For it pleased
<2106> (5656)

[the Father] that
<3754>

in
<1722>

him
<846>

should
<2730> (0)

all
<3956>

fulness
<4138>

dwell
<2730> (5658)_;

1:20

And
<2532>_,

having made peace
<1517> (5660)

through
<1223>

the blood
<129>

of his
<846>

cross
<4716>_,

by
<1223>

him
<846>

to reconcile
<604> (5658)

all things
<3956>

unto
<1519>

himself
<846>_;

by
<1223>

him
<846>_,

[I say], whether
<1535>

[they be] things in
<1909>

earth
<1093>_,

or
<1535>

things in
<1722>

heaven
<3772>_.

{having...: or, making}

1:21

And
<2532>

you
<5209>_,

that were
<5607> (5752)

sometime
<4218>

alienated
<526> (5772)

and
<2532>

enemies
<2190>

in [your] mind
<1271>

by
<1722>

wicked
<4190>

works
<2041>_,

yet
<1161>

now
<3570>

hath he reconciled
<604> (5656)

{in...: or, by your mind in}

1:22

In
<1722>

the body
<4983>

of his
<846>

flesh
<4561>

through
<1223>

death
<2288>_,

to present
<3936> (5658)

you
<5209>

holy
<40>

and
<2532>

unblameable
<299>

and
<2532>

unreproveable
<410>

in his
<846>

sight
<2714>_:

1:23

If
<1489>

ye continue
<1961> (5719)

in the faith
<4102>

grounded
<2311> (5772)

and
<2532>

settled
<1476>_,

and
<2532>

[be] not
<3361>

moved away
<3334> (5746)

from
<575>

the hope
<1680>

of the gospel
<2098>_,

which
<3739>

ye have heard
<191> (5656)_,

[and] which
<3588>

was preached
<2784> (5685)

to
<1722>

every
<3956>

creature
<2937>

which is under
<5259>

heaven
<3772>_;

whereof
<3739>

I
<1473>

Paul
<3972>

am made
<1096> (5633)

a minister
<1249>_;

1:24

Who
<3739>

now
<3568>

rejoice
<5463> (5719)

in
<1722>

my
<3450>

sufferings
<3804>

for
<5228>

you
<5216>_,

and
<2532>

fill up
<466> (5719)

that which is behind
<5303>

of the afflictions
<2347>

of Christ
<5547>

in
<1722>

my
<3450>

flesh
<4561>

for
<5228> (0)

his
<846>

body's
<4983>

sake
<5228>_,

which is
<3603> (5748)

the church
<1577>_:

1:25

Whereof
<3739>

I
<1473>

am made
<1096> (5633)

a minister
<1249>_,

according to
<2596>

the dispensation
<3622>

of God
<2316>

which
<3588>

is given
<1325> (5685)

to me
