Colossians 2:23


Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

Such restrictions indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-prescribed worship, their false humility, and their harsh treatment of the body; but they are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.


World English Bible (WEB)

Which things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, and humility, and severity to the body; but aren’t of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.


Strong's King James

Which things{G3748} have{G2192}{(G5723)} indeed{G3303} a shew{G2076}{(G5748)}{G3056} of wisdom{G4678} in{G1722} will worship{G1479}, and{G2532} humility{G5012}, and{G2532} neglecting{G857} of the body{G4983}; not{G3756} in{G1722} any{G5100} honour{G5092} to{G4314} the satisfying{G4140} of the flesh{G4561}.


The F.O.G *

(23) This word becomes, as surely having wisdom but in would be religion, false humility and unsparing treatment of the body! And in value, nothing, to no one, against fleshly infilling indulgence.


The F.O.G Message *


Young's Literal Translation

which are, indeed, having a matter of wisdom in will-worship, and humble-mindedness, and neglecting of body—not in any honour, unto a satisfying of the flesh.

After a dramatic early morning encounter with King Jesus, I just couldn’t put my Bible down. The F.O.G took a hold of me and this website was born. Learn more about the F.O.G.
