Kolossense 2:6-15

⁶ So dan, as you received Jesus as Here en Christus, now live your lives in him,

⁷ be rooted in him and built up on him, held firm by the geloof you have been taught, and overflowing with thanksgiving.

⁸ Make sure that no one captivates you with the empty lure of a ‘philosophy’ of the kind that human beings hand on, based on the principles of this world and not on Christ.

⁹ In hom, in bodily form, lives divinity in all its fullness,

¹⁰ and in him you too find your own fulfilment, in the one who is the head of every sovereignty and ruling force.

¹¹ In him you have been circumcised, with a circumcision performed, not by human hand, but by the complete stripping of your natural self. This is circumcision according to Christ.

¹² Jy is saam met hom begrawe deur jou doop; waardeur, ook, you have been raised up with him through your belief in the power of God who raised him from the dead.

¹³ Jy was dood, want julle was sondaars en onbesneden van liggaam: he has brought you to lewe met hom, Hy het ons elkeen van ons sondes vergewe.

¹⁴ He has wiped out the record of our debt to the Law, wat teen ons gestaan ​​het; hy het dit vernietig deur dit aan die kruis vas te spyker;

¹⁵ and he has stripped the sovereignties and the ruling forces, and paraded them in public, behind him in his triumphal procession.
