1 Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God--and Timothy our brother:
2 To the people of God and the believing brethren at Colossae who are in Christ. May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father.
3 We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, constantly praying for you as we do,
