Psa 100:1 A Psalm of thanksgiving. Make a joyful noise unto Jehovah, all ye lands.

Psa 100:2 Serve Jehovah with gladness: Come before his presence with singing.

Psa 100:3 Know ye that Jehovah, he is God: It is he that hath made us, and we are his; We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

Psa 100:4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, And into his courts with praise: Give thanks unto him, and bless his name.

Psa 100:5 For Jehovah is good; his lovingkindness endureth for ever, And his faithfulness unto all generations.

Col 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

Col 1:2 to the saints and faithful brethren in Christ that are at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

Thanksgiving and Prayer

Col 1:3 We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,

Col 1:4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have toward all the saints,

Col 1:5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel,

Col 1:6 which is come unto you; even as it is also in all the world bearing fruit and increasing, as it doth in you also, since the day ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth;

Col 1:7 even as ye learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf,

Col 1:8 who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.

Col 1:9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray and make request for you, that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,

Col 1:10 to walk worthily of the Lord unto all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

Col 1:11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, unto all patience and longsuffering with joy;

Col 1:12 giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light;

Col 1:13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love;

Col 1:14 in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins:

The Preeminence of Christ

Col 1:15 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation;

Col 1:16 for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and unto him;

Col 1:17 and he is before all things, and in him all things consist.

Col 1:18 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.

Col 1:19 For it was the good pleasure of the Father that in him should all the fulness dwell;

Col 1:20 and through him to reconcile all things unto himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross; through him, I say, whether things upon the earth, or things in the heavens.
