Colossians 1:11-17 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

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.
