1:20 | Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, |
1:21 | Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: |
1:22 | And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, |
1:23 | Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. |
