Colossians 1:19-23
New American Standard Bible
19 For [a]it was (A)the Father’s good pleasure for all (B)the [b]fullness to dwell in Him, 20 and through Him to (C)reconcile all things to Himself, (D)whether things on earth or things in [c]heaven, having made (E)peace through (F)the blood of His cross.
21 And although you were (G)previously alienated and hostile in attitude, engaged in evil deeds, 22 yet He has now (H)reconciled you in His (I)body of flesh through death, in order to (J)present you before Him (K)holy and blameless and beyond reproach— 23 if indeed you continue in [d]the faith firmly (L)established and steadfast, and not shifting from the (M)hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed (N)in all creation under heaven, (O)and of which I, Paul, [e]was made a [f](P)minister.
