because of the expectation that is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Good News,

as you also learned from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a true servant of Messiah on your behalf,

who is the likeness of the invisible Elohim, the first-born of all creation.

And He is the Head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the first-born from the dead, that He might become the One who is first in all.

Because in Him all the completeness was well pleased to dwell,
20.
and through Him to completely restore to favour all unto Himself, whether on earth or in the heavens, having made peace through the blood of His stake.

22.
in the body of His flesh through death, to present you set-apart, and blameless, and unreprovable before Him,
23.
if indeed you continue in the belief, founded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the expectation of the Good News which you heard, which was proclaimed to every creature under the heaven, of which I, Sha'ul, became a servant,

the secret which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His set-apart ones,
27.
to whom Elohim desired to make known what are the riches of the esteem of this secret among the gentiles: which is Messiah in you, the expectancy of esteem,
28.
whom we announce, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, in order to present every man perfect in Messiah Yahushua,
29.
for which I also labour, striving according to the working of Him who works in me in power.
