Colossians 1:15-17

Tree of Life Version

¹⁵ He is the image of the invisible God,
    the firstborn of all creation.
¹⁶ For by Him all things were created—
    in heaven and on earth,
    the seen and the unseen,
    whether thrones or angelic powers
    or rulers or authorities.
All was created through Him and for Him.
¹⁷ He exists before everything,
    and in Him all holds together.
