King James Version
"As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;"
— Colossians 1:7, King James Version
“even as ye learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf, ”
“even as you learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf,”
“You learned the gospel from Epaphras, our dear fellow slave– a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf–”
“As you learned of Epaphras, our most beloved fellow servant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ Jesus;”
“As it was given to you by Epaphras, our well-loved helper, who is a true servant of Christ for us,”
“As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;”
Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,
For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;
Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:
As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
