1 Thessalonians 4:15-18
15For thisG3778 we sayG3004 to you 1by the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, that 2we who are aliveG2198 3and remainG4035 untilG1519 4the comingG3952 of the LordG2962, will not precedeG5348 5thoseG3588 who have fallenG2837 asleepG2837.
16For the LordG2962 6HimselfG846 7will descendG2597 from heavenG3772 with a 89shoutG2752, with the voiceG5456 of 10the archangelG743 and with the 11trumpetG4536 of GodG2316, and 12the deadG3498 in ChristG5547 will riseG450 firstG4413.
17ThenG1899 13we who are aliveG2198 14and remainG4035 will be 15caughtG726 up togetherG260 with them 16in the cloudsG3507 to meetG529 the LordG2962 in the airG109, and soG3779 we shall alwaysG3842 17be with the LordG2962.
18ThereforeG5620 comfortG3870 oneG240 anotherG240 with theseG3778 wordsG3056.
