⁹ for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily, ¹⁰ and in him ye are made full, who is the head of all principality and power: ¹¹ in whom ye were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ; ¹² having been buried with him in baptism, wherein ye were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead. ¹³ And you, being dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, you, I say, did he make alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses; ¹⁴ having blotted out ^[a]the bond written in ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us: and he hath taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross; ^15 [b]having despoiled the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
