13who rescued us out of the authority of the darkness, and translated [us] into the kingdom of the Son of His love,
14in whom we have the redemption [[through His blood]], the forgiveness of sins,
15who is the image of the invisible God, firstborn of all creation,
16because all things were created in Him, those in the heavens, and those on the earth, those visible, and those invisible, whether thrones, whether lordships, whether principalities, whether authorities; all things have been created through Him and for Him,
17and He is before all, and all things have consisted in Him.
18And He is the head of the body—the Assembly—who is a beginning, a firstborn out of the dead, that He might become first in all [things] Himself,
19because all the fullness was pleased to dwell in Him,
