Colossians 2:10–17

TEXT EDITION
Pure Cambridge Edition selected
And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

    1LET us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

    2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

    3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

    4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.

    5And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.

    6Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:

    7Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

    8For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.

    9There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

    10For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.

    11Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
