1 Corinthians 15
1 Moreover, brethren, I make known unto you The joyful message, which I myself announced to you, which also ye received, in which also ye stand;
I make known now to you, brothers, the gospel that I evangelised to you, which also you received, in which also you have stood
2 Through which also ye are being saved, —if ye hold fast, with what discourse, I announced the joyful message unto you; unless indeed, in vain, ye believed.
through which also you are being saved, to the word I evangelised to you if you hold fast, unless only except in vain you have believed.
3 For I delivered unto you, among the first things, what also I received: —how that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures,
I delivered for to you in [the] foremost what also I received that Christ died for the sins of us according to the Scriptures
4 And that he was buried, and that he hath been raised, on the third day, according to the Scriptures, —
and that He was buried and that He has been raised on the day the third according to the Scriptures
5 And that he appeared unto Cephas, then, to the twelve,
and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve.
6 After that, he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, —of whom, the greater number, remain until even now, but, some, have fallen asleep, —
Thereafter He appeared to above five hundred brothers at once of whom the greater part remain until now, some however (and *k) were fallen asleep.
7 After that, he appeared unto James, then, unto all the apostles,
Then He appeared to James, then to the apostles all.
8 And, last of all, just as if unto the unseasonable birth, he appeared, even unto me;
Last then of all as an untimely birth He appeared also to me. also to me.
9 For, I, am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the assembly of God.
I myself for am the least of the apostles who not am fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God;
10 But, by favour of God, I am what I am, and, his favour, which was unto me, hath not been made void, —but, much more abundantly than they all, have I toiled, albeit not, I, but the favour of God with me.
By [the] grace however of God I am what I am, and the grace of Him toward me myself not void has been, Rather more excessive than them all I toiled, not I myself however, but the grace of God that [was] with me myself.
11 Whether therefore, I, or, they, thus do we proclaim, and, thus did ye believe.
Whether therefore I myself or they, thus we preach and thus you believed.
12 Now, if, Christ is proclaimed, that, from among the dead, he hath been raised, how say some, among you—resurrection of the dead, there is none?
If now Christ is preached that out from [the] dead He has been raised, how say among you some that a resurrection of [the] dead not there is?
13 But, if, resurrection of the dead, there is none, not even Christ, hath been raised;
If however a resurrection of [the] dead not there is, neither Christ has been raised;
14 And, if Christ, hath not been raised, void, after all, is our proclamation, void also, our faith, —
if then Christ not has been raised, [is] void then (also *no) the preaching of us, void (now *k) also the faith (of you. *NK+O)
15 And we are found, even false-witnesses of God, because we have witnessed respecting God, that he raised the Christ, —whom he did not raise, if, indeed, after all, the dead are not raised!
We are found then also false witnesses of God, because we have witnessed concerning God that He raised up Christ whom not He has raised if indeed if indeed then [the] dead not are raised;
16 For, if the dead are not raised, not even Christ, hath been raised;
If for [the] dead not are raised, neither Christ has been raised;
17 And, if Christ hath not been raised, to no purpose, is your faith, yet, are ye in your sins!
if then Christ not has been raised, [is] futile the faith of you (is; *o) still you are in the sins of you;
18 Hence also, they who are fallen asleep in Christ, are lost:
Then also those having fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
19 If, in this life, in Christ, we have hoped—and that is all, we are, of all men, most to be pitied.
If in life this in Christ already hoping we are only, more to be pitied than all men we are.
20 But, now, hath Christ been raised from among the dead, —a firstfruit of them who have fallen asleep;
Now however Christ has been raised out from [the] dead, firstfruit of those having fallen asleep (he became. *K)
21 For, since indeed, through a man, came death, through a man, also cometh the raising of the dead;
Since for through a man [came] death also through a man resurrection of [the] dead.
22 For, just as, in the Adam, all die, so, also, in the Christ, shall all be made alive.
For as indeed in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
23 But, each, in his own rank: —A firstfruit, Christ, after that, they who are the Christ’s, in his presence,
each however in the own order: [the] firstfruit Christ, then those of Christ at the coming of Him;
24 Afterwards, the end—whensoever he delivereth up the kingdom unto his God and Father, whensoever he shall bring to nought all rule and all authority and power;
then the end, when (He may hand over *N+k+o) the kingdom to the God and Father, when He may have annulled all dominion and all authority and power;
25 For he must needs reign, until he shall put all his enemies under his feet:
It behooves for Him to reign until that (when *k) He may have put all the enemies under the feet of Him.
26 As a last enemy, death, is to be destroyed;
[The] last enemy to be abolished [is] death.
27 For—He put, all things, in subjection under his feet. But, whensoever it shall be said—all things are in subjection!—it is evident that it means, —Except him who did put into subjection, unto him, the all things—
All things for He has put in subjection under the feet of Him; When however it may be said that all things have been put in subjection, [it is] evident that [is] excepted the [One who] having put in subjection to Him all things;
28 But whensoever have been put into subjection, unto him, the all things, then, the Son himself, [also] shall be put in subjection unto him who put in subjection, unto him, the all things, —that, God, may be, all things in all.
When now shall have been subjected to Him all things, then also Himself the Son will be put in subjection to the [One] having put in subjection to Him all things, so that may be God all in all.
29 Else, what will they do, who are being immersed in behalf of the dead? If, not at all, are the dead to be raised, why are they even being immersed in their behalf?
Otherwise what will they do who are baptized for the dead? If at all [the] dead not are raised; why also are they baptized for (them? *N+KO)
30 Why also are, we, running into peril every hour?
Why also we ourselves are in danger every hour?
31 Day by day, am I dying!—Yea! by your own boasting, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Every day I die, as surely as (in you *NK+O) boasting, (brothers *NO) which I have in Christ Jesus the Lord of us.
32 If, after the manner of men, I have fought with wild-beasts at Ephesus, what, to me, the profit? If the dead are not raised, Let us eat and drink, for, tomorrow, we die.
If according to man I fought wild beasts in Ephesus, what to me the profit? If [the] dead not are raised, Let us eat and let us drink, tomorrow for we die.
33 Be not deceiving yourselves, —evil communications corrupt gentle manners: —
Not do be misled: Do corrupt morals good companionships bad.
34 Wake up to sobriety, in righteousness, and be not committing sin; for some have, an ignorance of God: for shame, unto you, am I speaking!
do sober up righteously and not do sin; ignorance for of God some have; to [the] shame of you (I speak. *N+kO)
35 But some one will say—How, are the dead raised? and, with what kind of body, do they come?
But will say someone; How are raised the dead? With what then body do they come?
36 Simple one! What, thou, sowest, is not quickened, except it die;
Fool you yourself What you sow not does come to life only unless it may die;
37 And, what thou sowest, not the body that shall come into existence, dost thou sow, but a naked kernel—if it so happen, of wheat, or of any of the rest, —
And what you sow, not the body that will be you sow but a bare grain, if it would be of wheat or of some of the rest;
38 Howbeit, God, giveth it a body, as he pleased, and, unto each of the seeds, a body of its own.
But God gives to it a body even as He has willed and to each of the seeds [its] own body.
39 Not all flesh, is the same flesh; but, one, indeed, is, [the flesh] of men, and, another, the flesh of beasts, and, another, the flesh of birds, and, another, of fishes;
Not all flesh [is] the same flesh but one indeed (flesh *k) of men, another however flesh of beasts, another however (flesh *no) of birds another however of fish.
40 And there are heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies, —but, of one kind, indeed, is the glory of the heavenly, and, of another kind, is the glory of the earthly; —
And bodies [there are] heavenly and bodies earthly; But one indeed [is] the of the heavenly glory, another however that of the earthly.
41 One, is the glory of a sun, and, another, the glory of a moon, and, another, the glory of stars, —nay! star from star, differeth in glory.
One [is] [the] glory of [the] sun, and another [the] glory of [the] moon, and another [the] glory of [the] stars; star for from star differs in glory.
42 Thus, also the resurrection of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption,
So also [is] the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in decay, it is raised in immortality;
43 It is sown in dishonour, it is raised in glory, it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power,
It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;
44 It is sown a body of the soul, it is raised a body of the spirit; if there is a body of the soul, there is also of the spirit: —
It is sown a body natural, it is raised a body spiritual. (If *NO) there is a body natural, there is also (body *k) spiritual.
45 Thus, also, it is written—The first man, Adam, became, a living soul, the last Adam, a life-giving spirit.
So also it has been written: Became the first man Adam into a soul living; the last Adam into a spirit life-giving.
46 Howbeit, not first, is the [body] of the spirit, but that, of the soul, —afterwards, that of the spirit.
However not first [was] the spiritual but the natural, then the spiritual.
47 The first man, is of the ground, earthy, the second man, is, of heaven:
The first man [was] from [the] earth made of dust, the second man ([is] the Lord *K) from heaven.
48 As, the man of earth, such, also, the men of earth, and, as, the man of heaven, such, also, the men of heaven;
As the [one] made of dust, so also [are] those of the earth, and as the heavenly [one], so also those of heaven;
49 And, even as we have borne the image of the man of earth, let us also bear the image of the man of heaven.
And even as we have born the image of the earthly, (we will bear *NK+o) also the image of the heavenly.
50 And, this, I say, brethren, —that, flesh and blood, cannot inherit, God’s kingdom. Neither doth, corruption, inherit, incorruption.
This now I say, brothers, that flesh and blood [the] kingdom of God to inherit not (is able, *N+kO) nor the decay the immortality does inherit.
51 Lo! a sacred secret, unto you, do I declare: —we shall not, all, sleep, but we shall, all, be changed, —
Behold a mystery to you I tell; All (indeed *k) not we will sleep, all however we will be changed —
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, during the last trumpet; for it shall sound, and, the dead, shall be raised, incorruptible, and, we, shall be changed.
in an instant in [the] twinkling of an eye at the last trumpet; [The] trumpet will sound for, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we ourselves will be changed.
53 For this corruptible must needs clothe itself with incorruptibility, and this mortal, clothe itself, with immortality.
It behooves for perishable this to put on imperishable and mortal this to put on immortality.
54 But, whensoever, this mortal, shall clothe itself with immortality, then, shall be brought to pass the saying that is written—Death hath been swallowed up, victoriously;
When now perishable this may have put on [the] imperishable and mortal this may have put on immortality, then will come to pass the word which written: Has been swallowed up death in victory.
Where of you, O death, the victory Where of you, (O Hades, *N+KO) the sting (Hadēs g86)
56 Now, the sting of death, is, sin, and, the power of sin, is, the law; —
And the sting of death [is] sin, and the power of sin the law.
57 But, unto God, be thanks, who is giving unto us the victory, through our Lord Jesus Christ.
however to God [be] thanks who is giving us the victory through the Lord of us Jesus Christ.
58 So, then, my beloved brethren, —become ye, steadfast, immovable, superabounding in the work of the Lord, at all times; knowing that, your toil, is not in vain in the Lord.
Therefore, brothers of mine beloved, steadfast do be, immovable, abounding in the work of the Lord always, knowing that the toil of you not is in vain in [the] Lord.
