Colossians 2:9-15
Legacy Standard Bible
9 For in Him all the (A)fullness of Deity dwells bodily, 10 and in Him you have been (B)filled, (C)who is the head [a]over all (D)rule and authority; 11 in whom (E)you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in the removal of (F)the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ, 12 having been (G)buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also (H)raised up with Him through faith in the working of God, who (I)raised Him from the dead. 13 And you being (J)dead [b]in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He (K)made you alive with Him, having graciously forgiven us all our transgressions. 14 Having canceled out (L)the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us which was hostile to us, (M)He also has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. 15 Having [c](N)disarmed the (O)rulers and authorities, He (P)made a public display of them, having (Q)triumphed over them in [d]Him.

Colossians 2:9-15
Holman Christian Standard Bible
9 For the entire fullness(A) of God’s nature[a] dwells bodily[b] in Christ, 10 and you have been filled by Him, who is the head(B) over every ruler and authority. 11 You were also circumcised in Him with a circumcision not done with hands, by putting off the body of flesh,(C) in the circumcision of the Messiah.[c](D) 12 Having been buried with Him(E) in baptism, you were also raised with Him(F) through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.(G) 13 And when you were dead in trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive with Him and forgave us all our trespasses. 14 He erased the certificate of debt, with its obligations, that was against us and opposed to us, and has taken it out of the way by nailing it to the cross.(H) 15 He disarmed the rulers and authorities and disgraced them publicly; He triumphed over them by Him.[d](I)
