Colossians 1:11-20
New International Version
11 being strengthened with all power(A) according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience,(B) 12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father,(C) who has qualified you[a] to share in the inheritance(D) of his holy people in the kingdom of light.(E) 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness(F) and brought us into the kingdom(G) of the Son he loves,(H) 14 in whom we have redemption,(I) the forgiveness of sins.(J)
The Supremacy of the Son of God
15 The Son is the image(K) of the invisible God,(L) the firstborn(M) over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created:(N) things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities;(O) all things have been created through him and for him.(P) 17 He is before all things,(Q) and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head(R) of the body, the church;(S) he is the beginning and the firstborn(T) from among the dead,(U) so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased(V) to have all his fullness(W) dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile(X) to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven,(Y) by making peace(Z) through his blood,(AA) shed on the cross.

Colossians 1:11-20
King James Version
11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

Luke 23:33-43
New International Version
33 When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left. 34 Jesus said, “Father,(A) forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”[a](B) And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.(C)
35 The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him.(D) They said, “He saved others; let him save himself if he is God’s Messiah, the Chosen One.”(E)
36 The soldiers also came up and mocked him.(F) They offered him wine vinegar(G) 37 and said, “If you are the king of the Jews,(H) save yourself.”
38 There was a written notice above him, which read: this is the king of the jews.(I)
39 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”(J)
40 But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? 41 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”(K)
42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[b]”(L)
43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”(M)

Luke 23:33-43
King James Version
33 And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.
36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,
37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, This Is The King Of The Jews.
39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.
