Colossians 2:8-20
8BewareG991 lestG3361 any manG5100 makeG2071 a preyG4812 of youG5209 throughG1223 philosophyG5385 andG2532 vainG2756 deceitG539, afterG2596 the traditionG3862 of menG444, afterG2596 the rudimentsG4747 of the worldG2889, andG2532 notG3756 afterG2596 ChristG5547.12 9ForG3754 inG1722 himG846 dwellethG2730 allG3956 the fulnessG4138 of the GodheadG2320 bodilyG4985. 10AndG2532 ye areG2075 completeG4137 inG1722 himG846, whoG3739 isG2076 the headG2776 of allG3956 principalityG746 andG2532 powerG1849: 11InG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 ye are circumcisedG4059 with the circumcisionG4061 made without handsG886, inG1722 putting offG555 the bodyG4983 of the sinsG266 of the fleshG4561 byG1722 the circumcisionG4061 of ChristG5547: 12Buried withG4916 himG846 inG1722 baptismG908, inG1722 whichG3739 alsoG2532 ye are risen withG4891 him throughG1223 the faithG4102 of the operationG1753 of GodG2316, whoG3588 hath raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498.
13AndG2532 youG5209, beingG5607 deadG3498 inG1722 your sinsG3900 andG2532 the uncircumcisionG203 of yourG5216 fleshG4561, hath he made alive togetherG4806 withG4862 himG846, having forgivenG5483 youG5213 allG3956 trespassesG3900; 14Blotting outG1813 the handwritingG5498 of ordinancesG1378 that was againstG2596 usG2257, whichG3739 wasG2258 contraryG5227 to usG2254, andG2532 tookG142 itG846 out ofG1537 the wayG3319, nailingG4338 itG846 to his crossG4716; 15And having disarmedG554 principalitiesG746 andG2532 powersG1849, he made a show of themG1165 openlyG1722G3954, triumphing overG2358 themG846 inG1722 itG846.3
16LetG2919 noG3361 manG5100 thereforeG3767 judgeG2919 youG5209 inG1722 foodG1035, orG2228 inG1722 drinkG4213, orG2228 inG1722 respectG3313 of a feast dayG1859, orG2228 of the new moonG3561, orG2228 of the sabbathsG4521:45 17WhichG3739 areG2076 a shadowG4639 of things to comeG3195; butG1161 the bodyG4983 is of ChristG5547. 18LetG2603 no manG3367 beguileG2603 youG5209 of your rewardG2603 inG1722 a voluntaryG2309 humilityG5012 andG2532 worshippingG2356 of angelsG32, intruding intoG1687 those things whichG3739 he hathG3708 notG3361 seenG3708, vainlyG1500 puffed upG5448 byG5259 hisG846 fleshlyG4561 mindG3563,67 19AndG2532 notG3756 holdingG2902 the HeadG2776, fromG1537 whichG3739 allG3956 the bodyG4983 byG1223 jointsG860 andG2532 bandsG4886 having nourishment ministeredG2023, andG2532 knit togetherG4822, increasethG837 with the increaseG838 of GodG2316. 20ThereforeG3767 ifG1487 ye are deadG599 withG4862 ChristG5547 fromG575 the rudimentsG4747 of the worldG2889, whyG5101, as thoughG5613 livingG2198 inG1722 the worldG2889, are ye subject to ordinancesG1379,8
