Colossians 1:14-17

141in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

152He is the 3image of the 4invisible God, the 5firstborn of all creation: 16for 67by Him all things were created, 8both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether 9thrones, or dominions, or rulers, or authorities--10all things have been created through Him and for Him. 17He 1112is before all things, and in Him all things 13hold together.
