4 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have toward all the saints,
5 Por la esperanza que os está guardada en los cielos: de la qual habéis oído por la palabra muy verdadera del Evangelio:
5 because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Good News
6 El qual ha llegado á vosotros, como está también en todo el mundo; y dá fruto, y crece como entre vosotros, desde el día en que oisteis, y conocisteis la gracia de Dios según la verdad.
6 which has come to you, even as it is in all the world and is bearing fruit and growing, as it does in you also, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth,
7 Como lo aprendisteis de Epaphras nuestro consiervo muy amado, que es por vosotros fiel Ministro de Jesu-Christo.
7 even as you learned from Epaphras our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on your behalf,
8 El que también nos informó de vuestro amor según el espíritu.

9 For this cause, we also, since the day we heard this, don’t cease praying and making requests for you, that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,
10 Para que andeis dignos de Dios, agradándole en todo, fructificando en toda buena obra, y creciendo en la ciencia de Dios:
10 that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God,
11 Siendo confortados en toda virtud según el poder de su gloria, en toda paciencia y longanimidad con gozo,

12 Dando gracias a Dios Padre, que nos hizo dignos de participar la suerte de los Santos en luz:
12 giving thanks to the Father, who made us fit to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light,
13 Que nos libró del poder de las tinieblas, y nos trasladó al reyno de su Hijo muy amado,
13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love,
14 En el qual por su sangre tenemos la redención, la remisión de los pecados:
14 in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins.
15 El que es imagen del Dios invisible, el primogénito de toda criatura;
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.
16 Porque en él fueron criadas todas las cosas, que hay en los cielos y en la tierra, las visibles y las invisibles: ahora sean Thronos, ó Dominaciones, ó Principados, ó Potestades: todas fueron criadas por él mismo, y en él mismo.
16 For by him all things were created in the heavens and on the earth, visible things and invisible things, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things have been created through him and for him.
17 Y él es ante todas las cosas, y todas subsisten por él.
17 He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
18 Y él mismo es la Cabeza del cuerpo de la Iglesia, que es principio, primogénito de los muertos; de manera que él tiene el primado en todas las cosas;
18 He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he might have the preeminence.
19 Porque en él quiso hacer morar toda plenitud,
19 For all the fullness was pleased to dwell in him,
20 Y reconciliar por él á sí mismo todas las cosas, pacificando por la sangre de su Cruz, tanto lo que está en la tierra, como lo que está en el cielo.
20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself by him, whether things on the earth or things in the heavens, having made peace through the blood of his cross.
21 Y vosotros, que en otro tiempo erais extraños, y enemigos de corazón por las malas obras:
21 You, being in past times alienated and enemies in your mind in your evil deeds,
22 Mas ahora os ha reconciliado en el cuerpo de su carne por la muerte, para presentaros Santos, y sin mancilla, é irreprehensibles delante de él:
22 yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without defect and blameless before him,
23 Si es que perseverais cimentados en la fé, y firmes, y sin moveros de la esperanza del Evangelio, que habéis oído, que ha sido predicado á toda criatura que hay debaxo del cielo, del qual yo Pablo he sido hecho Ministro.
23 if it is so that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, of which I, Paul, was made a servant.
24 Que me gozo ahora en las aflicciones que he padecido por vosotros, y suplo en mi carne lo que resta de los sufrimientos de Christo, por el cuerpo de él, que es la Iglesia;
24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the assembly,
25 De la que he sido yo hecho Ministro, según la dispensación de Dios qué me fué dada para con vosotros, para dar cumplimiento á la palabra de Dios;
25 of which I was made a servant according to the stewardship of God which was given me toward you to fulfill the word of God,
26 El mysterio que ha estado escondido en los siglos y generaciones, mas ahora ha sido manifestado á sus Santos,
26 the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to his saints,
27 A los quales ha querido Dios hacer conocer las riquezas de la gloria de éste mysterio entre los Gentiles, que Christo es en vosotros la esperanza de la gloria,
27 to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
28 A quien nosotros anunciamos, amonestando á todo hombre, y enseñando á todo hombre en toda sabiduría, para que presentemos á todo hombre perfecto en Jesu-Christo;
28 We proclaim him, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus;
29 En lo que aún trabajo, combatiendo según la eficacia, que obra en mí por su poder;
29 for which I also labor, striving according to his working, which works in me mightily.

How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Holy indeed are all the Epistles of Paul: but some advantage have those which he sent after he was in bonds: those, for instance, to the Ephesians and Philemon: that to Timothy, that to the Philippians, and the one before us: for this also was sent when he was a prisoner, since he writes in it thus: "for which I …

For in proof that He meant this, and that before the taking of Jerusalem the gospel was preached, hear what Paul saith, "Their sound went into all the earth;" and again, "The gospel which was preached to every creature which is under Heaven." And seest thou him running from Jerusalem unto Spain?
