1 Corinthians 15:44-58
44It is sownG4687 a naturalG5591 bodyG4983; it is raisedG1453 a spiritualG4152 bodyG4983. IfG1487 there isG1510 a naturalG5591 bodyG4983, there isG1510 alsoG2532 a spiritualG4152 body. 45SoG3779 it is writtenG1125: “TheG3588 firstG4413 manG444 AdamG76 becameG1096G1519 a livingG2198 beingG5590”;1 theG3588 lastG2078 AdamG76 a life-givingG2227 spiritG4151.
46TheG3588 spiritualG4152, howeverG235, was notG3756 firstG4412, butG235 theG3588 naturalG5591, and thenG1899 theG3588 spiritualG4152. 47TheG3588 firstG4413 manG444 was of the dustG5517 ofG1537 the earthG1093, theG3588 secondG1208 manG444 fromG1537 heavenG3772. 48AsG3634 was theG3588 earthlyG5517 man, soG5108 alsoG2532 are those who areG3588 of the earthG5517; andG2532 asG3634 is theG3588 heavenlyG2032 man, soG5108 alsoG2532 are those who areG3588 of heavenG2032. 49AndG2532 just asG2531 we have borneG5409 theG3588 likenessG1504 of theG3588 earthlyG5517 man, so alsoG2532 shall we bearG5409 theG3588 likenessG1504 of theG3588 heavenlyG2032 man.
50NowG1161 I declareG5346 to you, brothersG80, thatG3754 fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129 cannotG3756G1410 inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, norG3761 does theG3588 perishableG5356 inheritG2816 theG3588 imperishableG861.
51ListenG2400, I tellG3004 youG4771 a mysteryG3466: We will notG3756 allG3956 sleepG2837, butG1161 we will all be changedG3956G236— 52inG1722 an instantG823, inG1722 the twinklingG4493 of an eyeG3788, atG1722 theG3588 lastG2078 trumpetG4536. ForG1063 the trumpet will soundG4537, theG3588 deadG3498 will be raisedG1453 imperishableG862, andG2532 weG1473 will be changedG236. 53ForG1063 theG3588 perishableG5349 mustG1163 be clothedG17462 with the imperishableG861, andG2532 theG3588 mortalG2349 with immortalityG110.
WhenG3752 theG3588 perishableG5349 has been clothed withG1746 theG3588 imperishableG861 andG2532 theG3588 mortalG2349 with immortalityG110,3 thenG5119 theG3588 sayingG3056 thatG3588 is writtenG1125 will come to passG1096: “DeathG2288 has been swallowed upG2666 inG1519 victoryG3534.”4
TheG3588 stingG2759 of deathG2288 is sinG266, andG1161 theG3588 powerG1411 of sinG266 is theG3588 lawG3551. 57ButG1161 thanksG5485 be toG3588 GodG2316, whoG3588 givesG1325 usG1473 theG3588 victoryG3534 throughG1223 ourG1473 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547!
58ThereforeG5620, myG1473 belovedG27 brothersG80, beG1096 steadfastG1476 and immovableG277. AlwaysG3842 excelG4052 inG1722 theG3588 workG2041 of theG3588 LordG2962, because you knowG1492 thatG3754 yourG4771 laborG2873 inG1722 the LordG2962 isG1510 notG3756 in vainG2756.
