1 Corinthians 15

15
1Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the Gospel (joyful message) which I preached unto you, which also you2f have received, and wherein you2f stand;
2By which also you2f are saved, if you2f keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless you2f have believed in vain.
3For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Moshiach [Messiah] died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
5And that he was seen of Kefa [pebble], then of the twelve:
6After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
7After that, he was seen of Ya’akov [heal-grabber]; then of all the apostles.
8And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
9For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God-The Father.
10But by the grace of God-The Father I am what I am: and his grace which [was bestowed] upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God-The Father which was with me.
11Therefore whether [it were] I or they, so we preach, and so you2f believed.
12Now if Moshiach [Messiah] be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Moshiach [Messiah] not risen:
14And if Moshiach [Messiah] be not risen, then [is] our preaching vain, and your faith [is] also vain.
15Yes, and we are found false witnesses of God-The Father; because we have testified of God-The Father that he raised up Moshiach [Messiah]: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.
16For if the dead rise not, then is not Moshiach [Messiah] raised:
17And if Moshiach [Messiah] be not raised, your faith [is] vain; you2f are yet in your sins.
18Then they also which are fallen asleep in Moshiach [Messiah] are perished.
19If in this life only we have hope in Moshiach [Messiah], we are of all men most miserable.
20But now is Moshiach [Messiah] risen from the dead, [and] become the firstfruits of them that slept.
21For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead.
22For as in Adam (Man, ground; red; earthling) all die, even so in Moshiach [Messiah] shall all be made alive.
23But every man in his own order: Moshiach [Messiah] the firstfruits; afterward they that are Moshiach [Messiah]’s at his coming.
24Then [comes] the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God-The Father, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
25For he must reign, till he has put all enemies under his feet.
26The last enemy [that] shall be destroyed [is] death.
27For he has put all things under his feet. But when he says all things are put under [him, it is] manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
28And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God-The Father may be all in all.
29Else what shall they do which are baptized for the hope of the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
30And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
31I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation] our Lord - Kurios, I die daily.
32If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus [permitted], what advantage it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we die.
33Be not deceived: evil associations, companionships corrupt good manners.
34Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God-The Father: I speak [this] to your shame.
35But some [man] will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
36 [youi] fool, that which youi sow is not quickened, except it die:
37And that which youi sows, youi sows not that body that shall be, but bore grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other [grain]:
38But God-The Father gives it a body as it has pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
39All flesh [is] not the same flesh: but [there is] one [kind of] flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, [and] another of birds.
40 [There are] also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial [is] one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial [is] another.
41 [There is] one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for [one] star differs from [another] star in glory.
42So also [is] the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45And so it is written, The first man Adam (Man, ground; red; earthling) was made a living soul; the last Adam (Man, ground; red; earthling) [was made] a quickening Spirit [Ruach].
46However that [was] not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47The first man [is] of the earth, earthy: the second man [is] the Lord - Kurios from heaven.
48As [is] the earthy, such [are] they also that are earthy: and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] they also that are heavenly.
49And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God-The Father; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.
51Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal [must] put on immortality.
54So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55O death, where [is] youri sting? O grave, where [is] youri victory?
56The sting of death [is] sin; and the strength of sin [is] the law.
57But thanks [be] to God-The Father, which gives us the victory through our Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah].
58Therefore, my beloved brethren, be you2f stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord - Kurios, forasmuch as you2f know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord - Kurios.
