— Colossians 1:12, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:”
“giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light; ”
“giving thanks to the Father, who made us fit to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light;”
“giving thanks to the Father who has qualified you to share in the saints’ inheritance in the light.”
“Giving thanks to God the Father, who hath made us worthy to be partakers of the lot of the saints in light:”
“Giving praise to the Father who has given us a part in the heritage of the saints in light;”
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:”
Then, too, from the day when we first heard it, we have not ceased praying for you and requesting that you be filled with the knowledge of his will, with all wisdom and spiritual understanding,
so that you may walk in a manner worthy of God, being pleasing in all things, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God,
being strengthened in every virtue, in accord with the power of his glory, with all patience and longsuffering, with joy,
giving thanks to God the Father, who has made us worthy to have a share in the portion of the saints, in the light.
For he has rescued us from the power of darkness, and he has transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of his love,
in whom we have redemption through his blood, the remission of sins.
He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of every creature.
