Colossians 3:12
Good News Translation (GNT)
“12 You are the people of ‘God’ [ha-‘Elohiym: the-Magistrate, the-Mighty-ones, the-Angels, etc..); ‘he’ [ha-‘Iysh: the-Husband, the-Steward, etc..] loved you and chose you for ‘his’ [ha-ga’al’s: the-redeemer’s, the-deliverer’s] own. So then, you must clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.”
The way, the life, in YH’shua!

Him /He: 376 ‘iysh eesh contracted for 582 (or perhaps rather from an unused root meaning to be extant); a man as an individual or a male person; often used as an adjunct to a more definite term (and in such cases frequently not expressed in translation):–also, another, any (man), a certain, + champion, consent, each, every (one), fellow, (foot-,husband-)man, (good-, great, mighty) man, he, high (degree), him (that is), husband, man(-kind), + none, one, people, person, + steward, what (man) soever, whoso(-ever), worthy. Compare 802.
