19 If only in this life we have been hoping in Christ, more miserable than all men are we.
20 But now has Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those that have slept.
21 For since through man death, through man also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But each one in his own order; the firstfruit Christ, afterward those that are Christ s at his coming:
24 then the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to the God and Father, when he shall have
destroyed all principality and all authority and power.
25 For he must reign till he shall have put all enemies under his feet.
26 Death, the last enemy, shall be destroyed.
27 For he has put all things under his feet. But when he shall have said that all things have been
subjected, it is evident that he is excepted who subjected all things to him;
28 but when all things shall have been subjected to him, then shall the Son also be subjected to him who
subjected all things to him, that God may be the all in all.
29 Otherwise, what shall they do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are
they even baptized for them?
30 Why also are we in danger every hour?
31 I protest by the rejoicing over you, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 If as a man I fought with wild beasts in Ephesus, what advantage is it to me? If the dead are not
raised, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.
33 Be not deceived: Evil communications corrupt good manners.
34 Awake to sobriety, as it is right, and sin not: for ignorance of God some have. For shame to you I
speak.
35 But some one will say: How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
36 Fooliish man, that which thou sowest is not made alive unless it die;
37 and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be produced, but naked grain it may
be of wheat, or some of the rest;
38 but God gives it a body as it pleased him, and to each of the seeds its own body.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh, but one indeed of men, but another flesh of beasts, but another flesh of
birds, but another of fishes.
40 And there are bodies celestial, and bodies terrestrial; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the
glory of the terrestrial another.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star
differs from star in glory.
42 So also the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption.
43 It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power:
44 it is sown a psychical body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a psychical body, there is also a
spiritual body.
45 So also it is written: The first man Adam was made a living soul, the last Adam a life-giving spirit.
46 But not first the spiritual, but the psychical: after that the spiritual.
47 The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man, from heaven.
48 As the earthy, such also the earthy; and as the heavenly, such also the heavenly;
49 and as we have worn the image of the earthy, we shall also wear the image of the heavenly.
50 But this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, neither does
corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery; we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead
shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruptibility, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 And when this corruptible shall have put on incorruptibility, and this mortal shall have put on
immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 Where thy sting, O death? Where thy victory, O death?
56 The sting of death is sin, but the strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 So then, my beloved brethren, become steadfast, immovable, abounding in the work of the Lord
always, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
1 Corinthians 16
1 But concerning the collection which is for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also
do you.
2 On every first day of the week let each one of you lay by himself, treasuring up whatever he has been
prospered, that there be no collections when I come.
3 And when I have come, whomever you may approve, these will I send with letters to bear your favor
to Jerusalem;
4 and if it be worth my going also, they shall go with me.
5 But I will come to you when I shall have passed through Macedonia;
6 for I am going through Macedonia, but with you, it may be, I shall remain or even spend the winter,
that you may send me forward wherever I may go.
