Colossians 2:20 | |
NASB: If you have died with Christ to the elementary principles of the world, why, as if you were living in the world, do you submit yourself to decrees, such as, (NASB ©1995) GWT: If you have died with Christ to the world's way of doing things, why do you let others tell you how to live? It's as though you were still under the world's influence. (GOD'S WORD®) KJV: Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, ASV: If ye died with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, do ye subject yourselves to ordinances, BBE: If you were made free, by your death with Christ, from the rules of the world, why do you put yourselves under the authority of orders DBY: If ye have died with Christ from the elements of the world, why as if alive in the world do ye subject yourselves to ordinances? WEY: If you have died with Christ and have escaped from the world's rudimentary notions, why, as though your life still belonged to the world, do you submit to such precepts as WBS: Wherefore, if ye are dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, WEB: If you died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances, YLT: If, then, ye did die with the Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances? | |
