And he is the head of the body , the church . He is the beginning , the firstborn from the dead , that in everything he might be preeminent .

And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.

And he is the head of the body, the church : who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
