Colossians 2:10-15

10and in Him you have been 1made 2complete, and 3He is the head 4over all 5rule and authority; 11and in Him 6you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in the removal of 7the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ; 12having been 8buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also 9raised up with Him through faith in the working of God, who 10raised Him from the dead. 13When you were 11dead 12in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He 13made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions, 14having canceled out 14the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and 15He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. 15When He had 16 17disarmed the 18rulers and authorities, He 19made a public display of them, having 20triumphed over them through 21Him.
