Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

1:3-14 This opening section begins with a thanksgiving, typical of New Testament letters. Paul thanks God for the Colossians’ progress in the faith and prays that they might understand it even better. With this prayer, Paul hints at his concern about the influence of false teachers.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
εὐχαριστοῦμεν & ἡμῶν
˱we˲_/are/_giving_thanks & ˱of˲_us
The word We here does not include the Colossians, but the word our here does include the Colossians
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole
πάντοτε
always
Here, always is an exaggeration that the Colossians understood to mean that Paul and Timothy prayed for them often. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word that indicates frequency. Alternate translation: “consistently” or “frequently”
