Colossians 1:17-19
International Standard Version
17 He himself existed before anything else did,
and he holds all things together.
18 He is also the head of the body,
which is the church.
He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead,
so that he himself might have first place in everything.
19 For God[a] was pleased to have
all of his divine essence[b] inhabit him.
