1 Corinthians 15

1MoreoverG1161, brethrenG80, I declareG1107 unto youG4771 the gospelG3588G2098 whichG3739 I preachedG2097 unto youG4771, whichG3739 alsoG2532 ye have receivedG3880, andG2532 whereinG1722 ye standG2476; 2ByG1223 whichG3739 alsoG2532 ye are savedG4982, ifG1487 ye keep in memoryG2722 whatG5101 I preachedG2097 unto youG4771, unlessG1622 ye have believedG4100 in vainG1500. 3ForG1063 I deliveredG3860 unto youG4771 first of allG4413 that whichG3739 IG3880 alsoG2532 receivedG3880, how thatG3754 ChristG5547 diedG599 forG5228 ourG1473 sinsG3588G266 according toG2596 the scripturesG3588G1124; 4AndG2532 thatG3754 he was buriedG2290, andG2532 thatG3754 he rose againG1453 the thirdG5154 dayG2250 according toG2596 the scripturesG3588G1124: 5AndG2532 thatG3754 he was seenG3708 of CephasG2786, thenG1534 of the twelveG1427: 6After thatG1899, he was seenG3708 of aboveG1883 five hundredG4001 brethrenG80 at onceG2178; ofG1537 whomG3739 the greater partG4119 remainG3306 untoG2193 this presentG737, butG1161 someG5100 are fallen asleepG2837. 7After thatG1899, he was seenG3708 of JamesG2385; thenG1534 of allG3956 the apostlesG3588G652. 8AndG1161 lastG2078 of allG3956 he was seenG3708 of me alsoG2504, asG5619 of oneG3588 born out of due timeG1626. 9ForG1063 IG1473 amG1510 the leastG1646 of the apostlesG3588G652, thatG3739 amG1510 notG3756 meetG2425 to be calledG2564 an apostleG652, becauseG1360 I persecutedG1377 the AssemblyG3588G1577 of GodG3588G2316. 10ButG1161 by the graceG5485 of GodG2316 I amG1510 whatG3739 I amG1510: andG2532 hisG846 graceG3588G5485 which was bestowed uponG1519 meG1473 wasG1096 notG3756 in vainG2756; butG235 I labouredG2872 more abundantlyG4053 than theyG846 allG3956: yetG1161 notG3756 IG1473, butG235 the graceG3588G5485 of GodG3588G2316 which wasG3588 withG4862 meG1473. 11ThereforeG3767 whetherG1535 it were IG1473 orG1535 theyG1565, soG3779 we preachG2784, andG2532 soG3779 ye believedG4100. 12NowG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 be preachedG2784 thatG3754 he roseG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, howG4459 sayG3004 someG5100 amongG1722 youG4771 thatG3754 there isG1510 noG3756 resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498? 13ButG1161 ifG1487 there beG1510 noG3756 resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, thenG3761 isG1453 ChristG5547 notG3761 risenG1453: 14AndG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 beG1453 notG3756 risenG1453, thenG686 is ourG1473 preachingG3588G2782 vainG2756, andG1161 yourG4771 faithG3588G4102 is alsoG2532 vainG2756. 15YeaG1161, andG2532 we are foundG2147 false witnessesG5575 of GodG3588G2316; becauseG3754 we have testifiedG3140 ofG2596 GodG3588G2316 thatG3754 he raised upG1453 ChristG3588G5547: whomG3739 he raisedG1453 notG3756 upG1453, if soG1512 be thatG686 the deadG3498 riseG1453 notG3756. 16ForG1063 ifG1487 the deadG3498 riseG1453 notG3756, thenG3761 isG1453 notG3761 ChristG5547 raisedG1453: 17AndG1161 ifG1487 ChristG5547 beG1453 notG3756 raisedG1453, yourG4771 faithG3588G4102 is vainG3152; ye areG1510 yetG2089 inG1722 yourG4771 sinsG3588G266. 18ThenG686 theyG3588 alsoG2532 which are fallen asleepG2837 inG1722 ChristG5547 are perishedG622. 19IfG1487 inG1722 thisG3778 lifeG3588G2222 onlyG3440 we haveG1510 hopeG1679 inG1722 ChristG5547, we areG1510 of allG3956 menG444 most miserableG1652.

20ButG1161 nowG3570 is ChristG5547 risenG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, and becomeG1096 the firstfruitsG536 of themG3588 that sleptG2837. 21ForG1063 sinceG1894 byG1223 manG444 came deathG3588G2288, byG1223 manG444 came alsoG2532 the resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498. 22ForG1063 asG5618 inG1722 AdamG3588G76 allG3956 dieG599, evenG2532 soG3779 inG1722 ChristG3588G5547 shallG2227 allG3956 be made aliveG2227. 23ButG1161 every manG1538 inG1722 his ownG3588G2398 orderG5001: ChristG5547 the firstfruitsG536; afterwardG1899 they that areG3588 Christ’sG5547 atG1722 hisG846 comingG3588G3952.

24ThenG1534 cometh the endG3588G5056, whenG3752 he shall have delivered upG3860 the kingdomG3588G932 to GodG3588G2316, evenG2532 the FatherG3962; whenG3752 he shall have put downG2673 allG3956 ruleG746 andG2532 allG3956 authorityG1849 andG2532 powerG1411. 25ForG1063 heG846 mustG1163 reignG936, tillG891 heG3739 hath putG5087 allG3956 enemiesG3588G2190 underG5259 hisG846 feetG3588G4228. 26The lastG2078 enemyG2190 that shall be destroyedG2673 is deathG3588G2288. 27ForG1063 he hath putG5293 all thingsG3956 underG5259 hisG846 feetG3588G4228. ButG1161 whenG3752 he saithG3004 all thingsG3956 are put underG5293 him, it is manifestG1212 thatG3754 he is exceptedG1622, whichG3588 did putG5293 all thingsG3588G3956 underG5293 himG846. 28AndG1161 whenG3752 all thingsG3588G3956 shall be subduedG5293 unto himG846, thenG5119 shallG5293 the SonG3588G5207 alsoG2532 himselfG846 be subjectG5293 unto himG3588 that putG5293 all thingsG3588G3956 under himG846, thatG2443 GodG3588G2316 may beG1510 allG3588G3956 inG1722 allG3956.

29ElseG1893 whatG5101 shall they doG4160 whichG3588 are baptizedG907 forG5228 the deadG3588G3498, ifG1487 the deadG3498 riseG1453 notG3756 at allG3654? whyG5101 are theyG907 thenG2532 baptizedG907 forG5228 the deadG3588G3498? 30AndG2532 whyG5101 standG2793 weG1473 in jeopardyG2793 everyG3956 hourG5610? 31I protest byG3513 yourG2251 rejoicingG3588G2746 whichG3739 I haveG2192 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962, I dieG599 dailyG2596G2250. 32IfG1487 after the mannerG2596 of menG444 I have fought with beastsG2341 atG1722 EphesusG2181, whatG5101 advantageth itG3588G3786 meG1473, ifG1487 the deadG3498 riseG1453 notG3756? let us eatG5315 andG2532 drinkG4095; forG1063 to morrowG839 we dieG599. 33BeG4105 notG3361 deceivedG4105: evilG2556 communicationsG3657 corruptG5351 goodG5543 mannersG2239. 34AwakeG1594 to righteousnessG1346, andG2532 sinG264 notG3361; forG1063 someG5100 haveG2192 not the knowledgeG56 of GodG2316: I speakG3004 this toG4314 yourG4771 shameG1791.

35ButG235 someG5100 man will sayG2046, HowG4459 areG1453 theG3588 dead raised upG1453? andG1161 with whatG4169 bodyG4983 do they comeG2064? 36Thou foolG878, that whichG3739 thouG4771 sowestG4687 isG2227 notG3756 quickenedG2227, exceptG1437 it dieG599: 37AndG2532 thatG1487 whichG3739 thou sowestG4687, thou sowestG4687 notG3756 thatG3588 bodyG4983 thatG3588 shall beG1096, butG235 bareG1131 grainG2848, it may chanceG5177 of wheatG4621, orG2228 of someG5100 otherG3588G3062 grain: 38ButG1161 GodG3588G2316 givethG1325 itG846 a bodyG4983 asG2531 it hath pleased himG2309, andG2532 to everyG1538 seedG3588G4690 his ownG3588G2398 bodyG4983. 39AllG3956 fleshG4561 is notG3756 the sameG3588G846 fleshG4561: butG235 there is oneG243 kind of fleshG4561 of menG444, anotherG243 fleshG4561 of beastsG2934, anotherG243 of fishesG2486, and anotherG243 of birdsG4421. 40There are alsoG2532 celestialG2032 bodiesG4983, andG2532 bodiesG4983 terrestrialG1919: butG235 the gloryG3588G1391 of the celestialG3588G2032 is oneG2087, andG1161 theG3588 glory of the terrestrialG3588G1919 is anotherG2087. 41There is oneG243 gloryG1391 of the sunG2246, andG2532 anotherG243 gloryG1391 of the moonG4582, andG2532 anotherG243 gloryG1391 of the starsG792: forG1063 one starG792 differeth fromG1308 another starG792 inG1722 gloryG1391. 42SoG3779 alsoG2532 is the resurrectionG3588G386 of the deadG3498. It is sownG4687 inG1722 corruptionG5356; it is raisedG1453 inG1722 incorruptionG861: 43It is sownG4687 inG1722 dishonourG819; it is raisedG1453 inG1722 gloryG1391: it is sownG4687 inG1722 weaknessG769; it is raisedG1453 inG1722 powerG1411: 44It is sownG4687 a naturalG5591 bodyG4983; it is raisedG1453 a spiritualG4152 bodyG4983. There isG1510 a naturalG5591 bodyG4983, andG2532 there isG1510 a spiritualG4152 bodyG4983. 45AndG2532 soG3779 it is writtenG1125, The firstG3588G4413 manG444 AdamG76 was madeG1096 a livingG2198 soulG5590; the lastG3588G2078 AdamG76 was made a quickeningG2227 spiritG4151. 46Howbeit thatG235 was notG3756 firstG4412 whichG3588 is spiritualG4152, butG235 that whichG3588 is naturalG5591; and afterwardG1899 that whichG3588 is spiritualG4152. 47The firstG4413 manG444 is ofG1537 the earthG1093, earthyG5517: the secondG1208 manG444 is the LordG3588G2962 fromG1537 heavenG3772. 48AsG3634 is the earthyG5517, suchG5108 are theyG3588 alsoG2532 that are earthyG5517: andG2532 asG3634 is the heavenlyG2032, suchG5108 are theyG3588 alsoG2532 that are heavenlyG2032. 49AndG2532 asG2531 we have borneG5409 the imageG3588G1504 of the earthyG5517, we shallG5409 alsoG2532 bearG5409 the imageG3588G1504 of the heavenlyG2032. 50NowG1161 thisG3778 I sayG5346, brethrenG80, thatG3754 fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129 cannotG1410 inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316; neitherG3761 dothG2816 corruptionG3588G5356 inheritG2816 incorruptionG3588G861.

51BeholdG3708, I shewG3004 youG4771 a mysteryG3466; We shallG2837 notG3756 allG3956 sleepG2837, butG1161 we shallG236 allG3956 be changedG236, 52InG1722 a momentG823, inG1722 the twinklingG4493 of an eyeG3788, atG1722 the lastG2078 trumpG4536: forG1063 the trumpet shall soundG4537, andG2532 the deadG3498 shall be raisedG1453 incorruptibleG862, andG2532 weG1473 shall be changedG236. 53ForG1063 thisG3778 corruptibleG5349 mustG1163 put onG1746 incorruptionG861, andG2532 thisG3778 mortalG2349 must put onG1746 immortalityG110. 54SoG1161 whenG3752 thisG3778 corruptibleG5349 shall have put onG1746 incorruptionG861, andG2532 thisG3778 mortalG2349 shall have put onG1746 immortalityG110, thenG5119 shall be brought to passG1096 the sayingG3588G3056 thatG3588 is writtenG1125, DeathG3588G2288 is swallowed upG2666 inG1519 victoryG3534. 55O deathG2288, whereG4226 is thyG4771 stingG3588G2759? O graveG86, whereG4226 is thyG4771 victoryG3588G3534? 56The stingG2759 of deathG3588G2288 is sinG3588G266; andG1161 the strengthG1411 of sinG3588G266 is the lawG3588G3551. 57ButG1161 thanksG5485 be to GodG2316, which givethG1325 usG1473 the victoryG3588G3534 throughG1223 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.

58ThereforeG5620, myG1473 belovedG27 brethrenG80, be yeG1096 stedfastG1476, unmoveableG277, alwaysG3842 aboundingG4052 inG1722 the workG3588G2041 of the LordG3588G2962, forasmuch as ye knowG1492 thatG3754 yourG4771 labourG3588G2873 isG1510 notG3756 in vainG2756 inG1722 the LordG2962.
