Holman Christian Standard Bible
8 Be careful that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deceit based on human tradition,(A) based on the elemental forces of the world, and not based on Christ.(B) 9 For the entire fullness(C) of God’s nature[a] dwells bodily[b] in Christ, 10 and you have been filled by Him, who is the head(D) over every ruler and authority.

Colossians 2:8-10
New International Version
8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy,(A) which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces[a] of this world(B) rather than on Christ.
9 For in Christ all the fullness(C) of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head(D) over every power and authority.(E)
