1 Corinto 15
1 Ita, ipalagipko kadakayo kakabsat, ti maipapan iti ebanghelio nga inwaragawagko kadakayo, nga inawatyo ken pagtaktakderanyo.
Next, friends, I would like to remind you of the good news which I told you, and which you received – the good news on which you have taken your stand,
2 Naisalakankayo babaen iti daytoy nga ebanghelio, no iggamanyo a sititibker ti sao nga inkasabak kadakayo, malaksid no inuubbaw ti panamatiyo.
and by means of which you are being saved. I would like to remind you of the words that I used in telling it to you, since you are still holding fast to it, and since it was not in vain that you became believers in Christ.
3 Ta intedko kadakayo a kas umuna a kapatgan ti isu met laeng nga inawatko: a natay ni Cristo gapu kadagiti basbasoltayo segun iti Nasantoan a Sursurat,
For at the very beginning of my teaching I gave you the account which I had myself received – that Christ died for our sins (as the scriptures had foretold),
4 a naitanem ken nagungar isuna iti maikatallo nga aldaw segun iti Nasantoan a Surat.
that he was buried, that on the third day he was raised (as the scriptures had foretold),
5 Ken nagparang isuna kenni Cefas ken kalpasanna, kadagiti Sangapulo ket Dua.
and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve.
6 Kalpasanna naminpinsan a nagparang isuna kadagiti nasurok a lima gasut a kakabsattayo. Kaadduan kadakuada ti sibibiag pay laeng ngem nakaturogen dagiti dadduma.
After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of his followers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have gone to their rest.
7 Kalpasanna nagparang isuna kenni Santiago, ken kadagiti amin nga apostol.
After that, he appeared to James, and then to all the apostles.
8 Maudi iti amin, nagparang isuna kaniak, a kas iti maysa nga ubing a naiyanak iti saan nga umiso a tiempo.
Last of all, he appeared even to me, who am, as it were, a miscarried baby – born untimely.
9 Ta siak ti kababaan kadagiti amin nga apostol. Saanak a maikari a maawagan nga apostol, gapu ta indadanesko ti iglesia ti Dios.
For I am the least of the apostles, I who am unworthy of the name of ‘apostle,’ because I persecuted the church of God.
10 Ngem babaen iti parabur ti Dios siak ket siak, ken saan nga ubbaw ti parabur ti Dios nga adda kaniak. Ngem ketdi, ad-adda nga inkarkarigatak ti nagtrabaho ngem iti amin kadakuada. Ngem saan a siak ti nagtrabaho no di ket ti parabur ti Dios nga adda kaniak.
But it is through the love of God that I am what I am, and the love that he showed me has not been wasted. No, I have toiled harder than any of them, and yet it was not I, but the love of God working with me.
11 Ngarud, siak man wenno isuda, nangasabakami isu a namatikayo.
Whether, then, it was I or whether it was they, this we proclaim, and this you believed.
12 Ita no naiwaragawag ni Cristo a kas nagungar manipud iti patay, kasano a maibaga iti dadduma kadakayo nga awan ti panagungar dagiti natay.
Now, if it is proclaimed of Christ that he has been raised from the dead, how is it that some of you say that there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead?
13 Ngem no awan ti panagungar dagiti natay, saan met ngarud a napagungar uray pay ni Cristo.
But, if there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead, then even Christ has not been raised;
14 Ken no saan a napagungar ni Cristo, ubbaw ngarud dagiti ikaskasabatayo ken uray dagiti pammatiyo ket ubbaw met laeng.
and, if Christ has not been raised, then our proclamation is without meaning, and our faith without meaning also!
15 Ken naduktalan a datayo ket palso a saksi ti Dios, gapu ta nangibagatayo iti pammaneknek a maibusor ti Dios, ibagbagatayo a pinagungarna ni Cristo, ngem saan met.
Yes, and we are being proved to have borne false testimony about God; for we testified of God that he raised the Christ, whom he did not raise, if, indeed, the dead do not rise!
16 Ta no saan a napagungar dagiti natay, saan met garud a napagungar ni Cristo.
For, if the dead do not rise, then even Christ himself has not been raised,
17 Ket no saan a napagungar ni Cristo, dagiti pammatiyo ket ubbaw, ken addakayo pay laeng kadagiti basbasolyo.
and, if Christ has not been raised, your faith is folly – your sins are on you still!
18 Ket uray dagidiay natay kenni Cristo ket napukawda met.
Yes, and they, who have passed to their rest in union with Christ, perished!
19 No iti daytoy laeng a biag nga addaantayo iti namnama para iti masakbayan kenni Cristo, datayo ti kangrunaan a makaassian kadagiti amin a tattao.
If all that we have done has been to place our hope in Christ for this life, then we of all people are the most to be pitied.
20 Ngem ita, napagungaren ni Cristo manipud iti patay, dagiti umuna a bunga dagiti natay.
But, in truth, Christ has been raised from the dead, the first-fruits of those who are at rest.
21 Agsipud ta immay ti patay babaen iti tao, babaen met laeng iti tao nga immay ti panagungar dagiti natay.
For, since through a man there is death, so, too, through a man there is a resurrection of the dead.
22 Ta kas kenni Adan a matay ti amin, kas met laeng kenni Cristo mapabbiag ti amin.
For, as through union with Adam all die, so through union with the Christ will all be made to live.
23 Ngem iti panagsasaruno segun kenni Cristo: Ni Cristo, ti immuna a bunga, ken kalpasanna, mapabbiagto met dagidiay naibilang kenni Cristo iti yaayna.
But each in their proper order – Christ the first-fruits; afterward, at his coming, those who belong to the Christ.
24 Ket daytoyto ti pagleppasanna, inton ited ni Cristo ti pagarian ti Dios Ama. Mapasamak daytoy inton ikkatenna amin a paglintegan, turay ken pannakabalin.
Then will come the end – when he surrenders the kingdom to his God and Father, having overthrown all other rule and all other authority and power.
25 Ta masapul nga agturay isuna aginggana a maikabilna amin dagiti kabusorna iti sirok iti sakana.
For he must reign until God ‘has put all his enemies under his feet.’
26 Ti kabusor a maudi a madadael ket ti patay.
The last enemy to be overthrown is death;
27 Ta “inkabilna amin a banag iti sirok dagiti sakana.” Ngem no ibagbaga nga, “inkabilna ti amin a banag,” nalawag a saan a mairaman ti nangikabil iti tunggal banag iti turayna.
for God has placed all things under Christ’s feet. (But, when it is said that all things have been placed under Christ, it is plain that God is excepted who placed everything under him.)
28 Inton iturturayannan ti tunggal banag, mismo a ti Anak ket iturayan met ti nangikabil iti amin iti turayna. Mapasamak daytoy tapno agbalin ti Dios Ama nga amin kadagiti amin.
And, when everything has been placed under him, the Son will place himself under God who placed everything under him, so that God may be all in all!
29 Ta no saan, ania ngarud ti aramiden dagidiay nabautisaran maipaay kadagiti natay? No saan a pulos a napagungar dagiti natay, apay ngarud ta nabautisaranda maipaay kadakuada?
Again, what good will they be doing who are baptized on behalf of the dead? If it is true that the dead do not rise, why are people baptized on their behalf?
30 Ken apay ngarud nga adda tayo iti peggad iti tunggal oras?
Why, too, do we risk our lives every hour?
31 Kakabsat, babaen ti panangipasindayawko kadakayo, nga adda kaniak kenni Cristo Jesus nga Apotayo, ipakdaarko daytoy: Inaldawak a matmatay.
Daily I face death – I swear it, friends, by the pride in you that I feel through my union with Christ Jesus, our Lord.
32 Ania ti magun-odko, manipud iti panagkita dagiti tattao, no makirangetak kadagiti narurungsot nga ayup idiay Efeso, no saan a napagungar dagiti natay? “Mangan ken uminomtayo, ta mataytayon no bigat.”
If with only human hopes I had fought in the arena at Ephesus, what should I have gained by it? If the dead do not rise, then let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die!
33 Saankayo nga agpaallilaw, “Daddadaelen dagiti dakes a kakadua dagiti nasasayaat a kagagalad.”
Do not be deceived. ‘Good character is marred by evil company.’
34 Agriingkayo! Agbiagkayo iti nalinteg! Saanyon nga itultuloy ti agbasol. Ta ti dadduma kadakayo ket awan ti ammoda maipapan ti Dios. Ibagak daytoy tapno agbainkayo.
Wake up to a righteous life, and cease to sin. There are some who have no true knowledge of God. I speak in this way to shame you.
35 Ngem addanto ti mangibaga, “Kasano a napagungar dagiti natay? Ania a kita ti bagi ti pagbalinanda no umayda?
Someone, however, may ask ‘How do the dead rise? And in what body will they come?’
36 Nagkukunengkayo unay! Saan a mangrugi a dumakkel ti aniaman nga inmulayo malaksid a matay daytoy.
You foolish person! The seed you yourself sow does not come to life, unless it dies!
37 Ken ti inmulayo ket saanto nga isu ti bagi a pagbalinanna, ngem maysa laeng a bukel. Mabalin nga agbalin daytoy a trigo wenno sabali.
And when you sow, you sow not the body that will be, but a mere grain – perhaps of wheat, or something else.
38 Ngem ikkanto ti Dios daytoy iti bagi segun iti pagayatanna, ken iti tunggal bukel ti bukodda a bagi.
God gives it the body that he pleases – to each seed its special body.
39 Saan nga agpapada ti amin a lasag. No diket, adda ti maysa a lasag dagiti tattao ken sabali pay a lasag para kadagiti ay-ayup, ken adda pay sabali a lasag para kadagiti billit ken sabali pay para kadagiti lames.
All forms of life are not the same; there is one for people, another for beasts, another for birds, and another for fish.
40 Adda met dagiti banbanag nga adda iti tangatang ken dagiti naindagaan a babanag. Ngem ti dayag dagiti banbanag nga adda iti tangatang ket maysa a kita ti dayag ken sabali met a dayag ti dayag dagiti naindagaan.
There are heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies; but the beauty of the heavenly bodies is not the beauty of the earthly.
41 Adda ti maysa a dayag ti init, ken sabali pay a dayag ti bulan ken sabali a dayag dagiti bitbituen. Ta naiduma ti dayag ti maysa a bituen kadagiti sabali pay a bituen.
There is a beauty of the sun, and a beauty of the moon, and a beauty of the stars; for even star differs from star in beauty.
42 Kastoy met laeng iti panagungar dagiti natay. Mapukaw ti aniaman a naimula, ken saan a mapukaw ti napagungar.
It is the same with the resurrection of the dead. Sown a mortal body, it rises immortal; sown disfigured, it rises beautiful;
43 Naimula daytoy iti pannakaibabain, napagungar daytoy iti dayag. Naimula daytoy iti kinakapsut, napagungar daytoy iti pannakabalin.
sown weak, it rises strong; sown a human body, it rises a spiritual body.
44 Naimula daytoy a gagangay a bagi, napagungar daytoy a naespirituan a bagi. No adda ti gagangay a bagi, adda met ti naespirituan a bagi.
As surely as there is a human body, there is also a spiritual body.
45 Isu a naisurat met laeng, “Nagbalin a sibibiag a kararua ti immuna a lalaki a ni Adan.” Nagbalin nga espiritu a mangit-ited iti biag ti naudi nga Adan.
That is what is meant by the words – ‘Adam, the first man, became a human being’; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
46 Ngem saan nga immuna nga immay ti naespirituan ngem ketdi ti gagangay, ken kalpasanna ti naespirituan.
That which comes first is not the spiritual, but the human; afterward comes the spiritual;
47 Ti immuna a lalaki ket nagtaud iti daga a naaramid manipud iti tapuk. Ti maikadua a tao ket naggapu idiay langit.
the first man was from the dust of the earth; the second man from heaven.
48 Kas iti maysa a naaramid manipud iti tapuk, kasta met dagiti naaramid manipud iti tapok. Ken kas iti tao a naggapu iti langit, kasta met dagiti naggapu idiay langit.
Those who are of the dust are like him who came from the dust; and those who are of heaven are like him who came from heaven.
49 Kas iti panangawit tayo iti ladawan iti tao iti tapuk, awitentayonto met ti ladawan iti tao iti langit.
And as we have borne the likeness of him who came from the dust, so let us bear the likeness of him who came from heaven.
50 Ita, daytoy ti ibagak kakabsat, a saan a matawid dayta a lasag ken dara ti pagarian ti Dios. Saan a matawid uray pay dagiti mapukaw ti saan a mapukaw.
This I say, friends – Flesh and blood can have no share in the kingdom of God, nor can the perishable share the imperishable.
51 Kitaem! Ibagak kadakayo ti palimed a kinapudno: Saantayo amin a matay, ngem mabaliwantayonto amin.
Listen, I will tell you God’s hidden purpose! We will not all have passed to our rest, but we will all be transformed – in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
52 Mabaliwantayonto iti apagbiit, iti panagkirem iti mata, iti maudi a panaguni ti trumpeta. Ta aguninto ti trumpeta, ken mapagungarto dagiti natay a saanen a mapukaw, ken mabaliwantayonto.
at the last trumpet-call; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will rise immortal, and we, also, will be transformed.
53 Ta daytoy a mapukaw ket masapul nga ikabilna ti saan a mapukaw ken ti matay ket masapul nga ikabilna kenkuana ti saan a matay.
For this perishable body of ours must put on an imperishable form, and this dying body a deathless form.
54 Ngem no inkabilen daytoy a mapukaw ti saan a mapukaw ken inkabilen ti matay ti saan a matay, ket mapasamakto iti naibaga a nakasurat, “Tinilmonen ti balligi ti patay.”
And, when this dying body has put on its deathless form, then indeed will the words of scripture come true –
‘death has been swallowed up in victory! Where, Death, is your victory? Where, death, is your sting?’ (Hadēs g86)
56 Ti silud iti patay ket basol ken ti pannakabalin iti basol ket ti linteg.
It is sin that gives death its sting, and it is the Law that gives sin its power.
57 Ngem agyamantayo iti Dios, nga isu ti mangmangted kadatayo iti balligi babaen iti Apotayo a ni Jesu-Cristo!
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory, through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
58 Ngarud kakabsatko, agbalinkayo a natibker ken agtalinaedkayo iti pinatiyo. Saysayaatenyo a kankanayon ti panagtrabahoyo maipaay iti Apo, gapu ta ammoyo a saan nga agbalin nga ubbaw dagiti trabahoyo iti Dios.
Therefore, my dear friends, stand firm, unshaken, always diligent in the Lord’s work, for you know that, in union with him, your toil is not in vain.
