1 Corinthians 15:3-22

3For 1I deliveredG3860 to you 2as of firstG4413 importanceG4413 whatG3739 I alsoG2532 receivedG3880, that ChristG5547 diedG599 3for our sinsG266 4accordingG2596 to the ScripturesG1124, 4and that He was buriedG2290, and that He was 5raisedG1453 on the thirdG5154 dayG2250 6accordingG2596 to the ScripturesG1124, 5and that 7He appearedG3708 to 8CephasG2786, thenG1534 9to the twelveG1427. 6AfterG1899 that He appearedG3708 to moreG1883 thanG1883 fiveG4001 hundredG4001 brethrenG80 at oneG2178 timeG2178, mostG4183 of whomG3739 remainG3306 untilG2193 nowG737, but someG5100 10have fallenG2837 asleepG2837; 7thenG1899 He appearedG3708 to 1112JamesG2385, thenG1534 to 13allG3956 the apostlesG652; 8and lastG2078 of allG3956, as 14to oneG1626 untimelyG1626 bornG1626, 15He appearedG3708 to me alsoG2532. 9For I amG1510 16the leastG1646 of the apostlesG652, 17and not fitG2425 to be calledG2564 an apostleG652, becauseG1360 I 18persecutedG1377 the churchG1577 of GodG2316. 10But by 19the graceG5485 of GodG2316 I amG1510 whatG3739 I amG1510, and His graceG5485 towardG1519 me did not proveG1096 vainG2756; but I 20laboredG2872 evenG4053 moreG4053 than allG3956 of them, yetG1161 21not I, but the graceG5485 of GodG2316 with me. 11WhetherG1535 thenG3767 it was I orG1535 they, soG3779 we preachG2784 and soG3779 you believedG4100.

12NowG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 is preachedG2784, that He has been raisedG1453 from the deadG3498, howG4459 do someG5100 amongG1722 you sayG3004 that there 22is noG3756 resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498? 13But ifG1487 there is noG3756 resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, not evenG3761 ChristG5547 has been raisedG1453; 14and 23ifG1487 ChristG5547 has not been raisedG1453, thenG686 our preachingG2782 is vainG2756, your faithG4102 alsoG2532 is vainG2756. 15MoreoverG1161 we are evenG2532 foundG2147 to be falseG5577 witnessesG5577 of GodG2316, becauseG3754 we testifiedG5577 24againstG2596 GodG2316 that He 25raisedG1453 26ChristG5547, whomG3739 He did not raiseG1453, ifG1512 in factG686 the deadG3498 are not raisedG1453. 16For ifG1487 the deadG3498 are not raisedG1453, not evenG3761 ChristG5547 has been raisedG1453; 17and ifG1487 ChristG5547 has not been raisedG1453, your faithG4102 is worthlessG3152; 27you are stillG2089 in your sinsG266. 18ThenG686 thoseG3588 alsoG2532 who 28have fallenG2837 asleepG2837 in ChristG5547 have perishedG622. 19IfG1487 we have hopedG1679 in ChristG5547 in thisG3778 lifeG2222 onlyG3440, we are 29of allG3956 menG444 mostG1652 to be pitiedG1652.

20But nowG3570 ChristG5547 30has been raisedG1453 from the deadG3498, the 31firstG536 fruitsG536 of thoseG3588 who 32are asleepG2837. 21For sinceG1894 33by a manG444 came deathG2288, by a manG444 alsoG2532 came the resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498. 22For 34as in AdamG76 allG3956 dieG599, soG3779 alsoG2532 in 35ChristG5547 allG3956 will be madeG2227 aliveG2227.
