16. क्योंकि उसी में सारी वस्तुओं की सृष्टि हुई, स्वर्ग की हो अथवा पृथ्वी की, देखी या अनदेखी, क्या सिंहासन, क्या प्रभुतांए, क्या प्रधानताएं, क्या अधिकार, सारी वस्तुएं उसी के द्वारा और उसी के लिये सृजी गई हैं।
नीतिवचन 16:4
16. For it was in Him that all things were created, in heaven and on earth, things seen and things unseen, whether thrones, dominions, rulers, or authorities; all things were created and exist through Him [by His service, intervention] and in and for Him.
