Colossians 2:8-15

8TakeG991 heedG991 lestG3361 there shall beG1510 any oneG5100 that maketh spoil of you through his philosophy and vainG2756 deceitG539, after the traditionG3862 of menG444, after the rudiments of the worldG2889, and not after ChristG5547: 9for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily, 10and in him ye areG1510 made fullG4137, who isG1510 the headG2776 of all principality and powerG1849: 11in whom ye were alsoG2532 circumcised with a circumcisionG4061 not made with handsG886, in the putting off of the bodyG4983 of the fleshG4561, in the circumcisionG4061 of ChristG5547; 12having been buried with him in baptismG908, wherein ye were alsoG2532 raisedG1453 with him through faithG4102 in the workingG1753 of GodG2316, who raisedG1453 him from the deadG3498. 13And you, beingG1510 deadG3498 through your trespassesG3900 and the uncircumcisionG203 of your fleshG4561, you, I say, did he make aliveG4806 together with him, having forgivenG5483 us all our trespassesG3900; 14having blotted out the bond written in ordinances that wasG1510 against us, which wasG1510 contrary to us: and he hath takenG142 it out of the way, nailing it to the crossG4716; 15having despoiled the principalities and the powersG1849, he made a show of them openlyG3954, triumphing over them in it.
