And my God shall fulfill all your necessities through his riches with glorie in Iesus Christ.

Vnto God euen our Father be praise for euermore, Amen.

Paul an Apostle of Iesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother,

To them which are at Colosse, Saintes and faithfull brethren in Christ: Grace bee with you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lorde Iesus Christ.

We giue thankes to God euen ye Father of our Lord Iesus Christ, alway praying for you:

Which is come vnto you, eue as it is vnto al the world, & is fruitful, as it is also amog you, from ye day that ye heard & truely knew ye grace of God,

That ye might walke worthy of the Lord, & please him in all things, being fruitefull in all good workes, and increasing in the knowledge of God,

Who is the image of the inuisible God, the first begotten of euery creature.

Whereof I am a minister, according to the dispensation of God, which is giuen mee vnto you ward, to fulfill the word of God,

To whome God woulde make knowen what is the riches of his glorious mysterie among the Gentiles, which riches is Christ in you, the hope of glory,

That their heartes might be comforted, and they knit together in loue, and in all riches of the full assurance of vnderstanding, to know the mysterie of God, euen the Father, and of Christ:

In that yee are buried with him through baptisme, in whome ye are also raised vp together through the faith of the operation of God, which raised him from the dead.

And holdeth not the head, whereof all the body furnished and knit together by ioyntes and bands, increaseth with the increasing of God.

If yee then bee risen with Christ, seeke those thinges which are aboue, where Christ sitteth at the right hand of God.

For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

For the which things sake ye wrath of God commeth on the children of disobedience.

Now therfore as the elect of God holy and beloued, put on the bowels of mercies, kindnesse, humblenesse of minde, meekenesse, long suffering:

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which ye are called in one body, and be ye thankfull.

And whatsoeuer ye shall doe, in worde or deede, doe all in the Name of the Lorde Iesus, giuing thankes to God euen the Father by him.

Seruants, be obedient vnto them that are your masters according to the flesh, in all things, not with eye seruice as men pleasers, but in singlenes of heart, fearing God.
