13
who has rescued us from the domain of darkness and transferred [us] to the kingdom of the Son {he loves},
14
in whom we have the redemption, the forgiveness of sins,
15
who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation,
16
because all [things] in the heavens and on the earth were created by him, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers, all [things] were created through him and for him,
17
and he himself is before all [things], and in him all [things] are held together,
