1:7As ye lerneden of Epafras, oure felawe most dereworthe, which is a trewe mynystre of Jhesu Crist for you;
1:8which also schewide to vs youre louyng in spirit.

1:17and he is bifor alle, and alle thingis ben in hym.
1:18And he is heed of the bodi of the chirche; which is the bigynnyng and the firste bigetun of deede men, that he holde the firste dignyte in alle thingis.
1:19For in hym it pleside al plente to inhabite,
1:20and bi hym alle thingis to be recounselid in to hym, and made pees bi the blood of his cros, tho thingis that ben in erthis, ether that ben in heuenes.
1:21And whanne ye weren sumtyme aliened, and enemyes bi wit in yuele werkis,
1:22now he hath recounselid you in the bodi of his fleisch bi deth, to haue you hooli, and vnwemmyd, and with out repreef bifor hym.
1:23If netheles ye dwellen in the feith, foundid, and stable, and vnmouable fro the hope of the gospel that ye han herd, which is prechid in al creature that is vndur heuene. Of which Y Poul am maad mynystre,
1:24and now Y haue ioye in passioun for you, and Y fille tho thingis that failen of the passiouns of Crist in my fleisch, for his bodi, that is the chirche.
1:25Of which Y Poul am maad mynystre bi the dispensacioun of God, that is youun to me in you,
1:26that Y fille the word of God, the priuyte, that was hid fro worldis and generaciouns. But now it is schewid to his seyntis,
1:27to whiche God wold make knowun the richessis of the glorie of this sacrament in hethene men, which is Crist in you, the hope of glorie.
1:28Whom we schewen, repreuynge ech man, and techinge `ech man in al wisdom, that we offre ech man perfit in Crist Jhesu.
1:29In which thing also Y trauele in stryuynge bi the worching of hym, that he worchith in me in vertu.

1:25wherof I am made a mynister, acordinge to ye Godly office of preachinge, which is geuen vnto me amonge you, that I shulde richely preach the worde of God,
1:26namely, that mystery which hath bene hyd sence the worlde beganne, and sence the begynnynge of tymes: but now is opened vnto his sayntes,
1:27to whom God wolde make knowne the glorious riches of this mistery amoge ye Heythen: which (riches) is Christ in you, eue he that is the hope of glory,
1:28who we preach, and warne all men, and teach all men in all wyssdome, to make euery man parfecte in Christ Iesu:
1:29Wherin I also laboure, and stryue acordinge to the workynge of him which worketh mightely in me.
