14 En el cual tenemos redención por su sangre, la remisión de pecados:
15 El cual es la imagen del Dios invisible, el primogénito de toda criatura.
16 Porque por él fueron criadas todas las cosas que [están] en los cielos, y que [están] en la tierra, visibles é invisibles; sean tronos, sean dominios, sean principados, sean potestades; todo fué criado por él y para él.
17 Y él es antes de todas las cosas, y por él todas las cosas subsisten:
18 Y él es la cabeza del cuerpo [que es] la iglesia; [él] que es el principio, el primogénito de los muertos, para que en todo tenga el primado.
