1 Corinthians 15:35–44

³And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.

³And hee said vnto mee, Sonne of man, can these bones liue? and I answered, O LORD God, thou knowest.

³⁸But God giveth it a body as it hath 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.

⁴⁰There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.

⁴¹There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth 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 was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

⁴⁶Howbeit 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 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; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

⁵¹Behold, I shew 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.

³⁸But God giueth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to euery seed his owne 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 celestiall bodies, and bodies terrestriall: But the glorie of the celestiall is one, and the glorie of the terrestriall is another.

⁴¹ There is one glory of the sunne, another of the moone, and another glorie of the starres: for one starre differeth from another starre in glorie.

⁴²So also is the resurrection of the dead, it is sowen in corruption, it is raised in incorruption.

⁴³It is sowen in dishonour, it is raysed in glorie: it is sowen in weakenesse, it is raysed in power:

⁴⁴It is sowen a naturall body, it is raised a spirituall bodie. There is a naturall bodie, and there is a spirituall bodie.

⁴⁵And so it is written: The first man Adam was made a liuing soule, the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

⁴⁶Howbeit that was not first which is spirituall: but that which is naturall, and afterward that which is spirituall.

⁴⁷The first man is of the earth, earthy: The second man is the Lord from heauen.

⁴⁸As is the earthy, such are they that are earthy, and as is the heauenly, such are they also that are heauenly.

⁴⁹And as we haue borne the image of the earthy, wee shall also beare the image of the heauenly.

⁵⁰Now this I say, brethren, that flesh & blood cannot inherite the kingdome of God: neither doth corruption inherite incorruption.

⁵¹Behold, I shew you a mysterie: we shall not all sleepe, but wee shall all be changed,

⁵²In a moment, in the twinckling of an eye, at the last trumpe, (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 mortall must put on immortalitie.

²¹Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

²¹Who shall change our vile bodie, that it may bee fashioned like vnto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able euen to subdue all things vnto himselfe.

¹⁹Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

¹⁹Thou wilt say then vnto mee; Why doeth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

⁵As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.

⁵As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones doe growe in the wombe of her that is with child: euen so thou knowest not the workes of God who maketh all.

¹²For vain man would be wise, though man be born like a wild ass’s colt.

¹²For ^†vaine man would be wise; though man be borne like a wilde asses coult.

¹³And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?

¹³And thou sayest, ^‖How doth God know? can he iudge through the darke cloude?

⁴Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?

⁴Nicodemus saith vnto him, How can a man be borne when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mothers wombe, and be borne?

⁹Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

⁹Nicodemus answered, and said vnto him, How can these things be?

¹⁰Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?

¹⁰Therefore said they vnto him, How were thine eyes opened?

²⁹Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.

³⁰For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

²⁹Iesus answered, and said vnto them, Yee doe erre, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.

³⁰For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are giuen in marriage, but are as the Angels of God in heauen.

¹¹And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?

¹¹And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?

¹¹¶ Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.

¹¹¶ Then he said vnto me, Sonne of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say; Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost, wee are cut off for our parts.

²⁴Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

²⁴Uerely, verely, I say vnto you, Except a corne of wheat fall into the ground, and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

⁴⁰Ye fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also?

⁴⁰Yee fooles, did not he that made that which is without, make that which is within also?

¹⁵See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,

^15*See then that yee walke circumspectly, not as fooles, but as wise,

²⁰But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?

²⁰But God said vnto him, Thou foole, this night ^†thy soule shal be required of thee: then whose shal those things be which thou hast prouided?

²⁵Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:

²⁵Then hee saide vnto them, O fooles, and slow of heart to beleeue all that the Prophets haue spoken:

²²Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

²²Professing themselues to be wise, they became fooles:

⁷So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

⁷So then, neither is he that planteth any thing, neither hee that watereth: but God that giueth the increase.

¹¹For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

¹¹For as the earth bringeth foorth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sowen in it, to spring foorth: so the LORD God will cause righteousnes and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

¹¹And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

¹²And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

¹¹And God said, Let the Earth bring foorth ^†grasse, the herbe yeelding seed, and the fruit tree, yeelding fruit after his kinde, whose seed is in it selfe, vpon the earth: and it was so.

¹²And the earth brought foorth grasse, and herbe yeelding seed after his kinde, and the tree yeelding fruit, whose seed was in it selfe, after his kinde: and God saw that it was good.

²⁶¶ And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

²⁷And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.

²⁸For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

²⁹But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

²⁶¶ And he said, So is the kingdome of God, as if a man should cast seede into the ground,

²⁷And should sleepe, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring, and grow vp, he knoweth not how.

²⁸For the earth bringeth foorth fruite of herselfe, first the blade, then the eare, after that the full corne in the eare.

²⁹But when the fruite is ^‖brought foorth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the haruest is come.

¹⁴He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;

^14*He causeth the grasse to grow for the cattell, and herbe for the seruice of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth:

²⁰And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

²¹And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

²²And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

²³And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

²⁴¶ And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

²⁵And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

²⁶¶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

²⁰And God said, ^*Let the waters bring foorth aboundantly the ^‖mouing creature that hath ^†life, and foule that may flie aboue the earth in the ^†open firmament of heauen.

²¹And God created great whales, and euery liuing creature that moueth, which the waters brought forth aboundantly after their kinde, and euery winged foule after his kinde: and God saw that it was good.

²²And God blessed them, saying, ^*Be fruitfull, and multiply, and fill the waters in the Seas, and let foule multiply in the earth.

²³And the euening and the morning were the fift day.

²⁴¶ And God said, Let the earth bring forth the liuing creature after his kinde, cattell, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kinde: and it was so.

²⁵And God made the beast of the earth after his kinde, and cattell after their kinde, and euery thing that creepeth vpon the earth, after his kinde: and God saw that it was good.

²⁶¶ And God said, ^*Let vs make man in our Image, after our likenesse: and let them haue dominion ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the aire, and ouer the cattell, and ouer all the earth, and ouer euery creeping thing that creepeth vpon the earth.

¹⁹And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the Lord thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.

¹⁹And lest thou lift vp thine eyes vnto heauen, and when thou seest the sun, and the moone, and the starres, euen all the hoste of heauen, shouldest be driuen to worship them, and serue them, which the LORD thy God hath ^‖diuided vnto all nations vnder the whole heauen.

²³Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.

^23*‖Then the Moone shall be confounded, and the Sunne ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reigne in mount Zion and in Ierusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.

³Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.

⁴Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

⁵Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.

³Praise ye him Sunne and Moone: praise him all ye starres of light.

⁴Praise him ye heauens of heauens: and ye waters that be aboue the heauens.

⁵Let them praise the Name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

¹⁴¶ And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

¹⁴¶ And God said, Let there bee ^*lights in the firmament of the heauen, to diuide ^†the day from the night: and let them be for signes and for seasons, and for dayes and yeeres.

²⁶If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness;

²⁶If I beheld ^†the Sunne when it shined, or the Moone walking ^† in brightnesse:

⁴Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

⁵Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.

⁶His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

^4†*Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world: In them hath he set a tabernacle for the Sunne.

⁵Which is as a bridegrome comming out of his chamber, and reioyceth as a strong man to runne a race.

⁶His going forth is from the end of the heauen, and his circuite vnto the ends of it: and there is nothing hidde from the heat thereof.

³When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

³When I consider thy heauens, the worke of thy fingers, the moone and the starres which thou hast ordained;

³And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

^3‖*And they that be wise shall shine as the brightnesse of the firmament, and they that turne many to righteousnesse, as the starres for euer and euer.

⁴³Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

^43*Then shall the righteous shine foorth as the Sunne, in the kingdome of their father. Who hath eares to heare, let him heare.

²⁰For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:

²¹Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

²⁰For our conuersation is in heauen, from whence also we looke for the Sauiour, the Lord Iesus Christ:

²¹Who shall change our vile bodie, that it may bee fashioned like vnto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able euen to subdue all things vnto himselfe.

⁴To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,

⁴To an inheritance incorruptible, and vndefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserued in heauen ^‖for you,

²¹Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

²¹Because the creature it selfe also shall bee deliuered from the bondage of corruption, into the glorious libertie of the children of God.

⁵⁰Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

⁵¹Behold, I shew 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.

⁵⁰Now this I say, brethren, that flesh & blood cannot inherite the kingdome of God: neither doth corruption inherite incorruption.

⁵¹Behold, I shew you a mysterie: we shall not all sleepe, but wee shall all be changed,

⁵²In a moment, in the twinckling of an eye, at the last trumpe, (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 mortall must put on immortalitie.

⁵⁴So when this corruptible shall haue put on incorruption, & this mortall shall haue put on immortality, then shall be brought to passe the saying that is written, ^*Death is swallowed vp in victorie.

²⁷Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

²⁷Because thou wilt not leaue my soule in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy one to see corruption.

³¹He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.

³¹He seeing this before, spake of the resurrection of Christ, ^*that his soule was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.

³⁴And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.

³⁵Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

³⁶For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:

³⁷But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.

³⁴And as concerning that he raised him vp from the dead, now no more to returne to corruption, he said on this wise, ^*I will giue you the sure ^†mercies of Dauid.

³⁵Wherfore he saith also in another Psalme, ^*Thou shalt not suffer thine holy one to see corruption.

³⁶For Dauid after he had serued his ^‖owne generation by the will of God, ^*fell on sleepe, and was laide vnto his fathers, and saw corruption:

³⁷But hee whom God raised againe, saw no corruption.

¹⁹In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

¹⁹In the sweate of thy face shalt thou eate bread, till thou returne vnto the ground: for out of it wast thou taken, for dust thou art, and vnto dust shalt thou returne.

¹⁷Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.

^17‖†Behold, for peace I had great bitternesse, but thou hast in loue to my soule deliuered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sinnes behinde thy backe.

¹⁴I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.

¹⁴I haue ^†said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worme, Thou art my mother, and my sister.

³⁵But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:

³⁶Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.

³⁵But they which shall be accompted worthy to obtaine that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marrie, nor are giuen in marriage.

³⁶Neither can they die any more; for they are equall vnto the Angels, and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.

¹⁰For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

^10*For thou wilt not leaue my soule in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine holy one to see corruption.

¹⁴Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their beauty shall consume in the grave from their dwelling.

^14‖‖Like sheepe they are layd in the graue, death shall feede on them; and the vpright shall haue dominion ouer them in the morning, and their beauty shall consume in the graue, from their dwelling.

²³And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

²³And changed the glory of the vncorruptible ^*God, into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birdes, and foure footed beasts, and creeping things:

⁹That he should still live for ever, and not see corruption.

⁹That he should still liue for euer, and not see corruption.

⁴When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

⁴When Christ, who is our life, shall appeare, then shall yee also appeare with him in glorie.

¹⁴And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

¹⁴And God hath both raised vp the Lord, and will also raise vp vs by his owne power.

²⁰For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:

²¹Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

²⁰For our conuersation is in heauen, from whence also we looke for the Sauiour, the Lord Iesus Christ:

²¹Who shall change our vile bodie, that it may bee fashioned like vnto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able euen to subdue all things vnto himselfe.

⁴For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.

⁴For though hee was crucified through weaknesse, yet he liueth by the power of God: for wee also are weake ^‖in him, but wee shall liue with him by the power of God toward you.

¹AND at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

¹¶ And at that time shall Michael stand vp, the great Prince which standeth for the children of thy people, and there shalbe a time of trouble, such as neuer was since there was a nation, euen to that same time: and at that time thy people shalbe deliuered, euery one that shalbe found written in the booke.

²⁴And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

²⁵For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

²⁴And Iesus answering, said vnto them, Doe ye not therefore erre, because yee know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

²⁵For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are giuen in marriage: but are as the Angels which are in heauen.

²⁹Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.

¹⁰But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?

¹⁰But man dyeth, and ^†wasteth away; yea, man giueth vp the ghost, and where is hee?

⁴³Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

^43*Then shall the righteous shine foorth as the Sunne, in the kingdome of their father. Who hath eares to heare, let him heare.

¹⁰That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

²³He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.

^23†He weakened my strength in the way: he shortened my dayes.

⁵⁰Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

⁵⁰Now this I say, brethren, that flesh & blood cannot inherite the kingdome of God: neither doth corruption inherite incorruption.

¹⁹¶ Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

¹⁹¶ ^*Then the same day at euening, being the first day of the weeke, when the doores were shut, where the disciples were assembled for feare of the Iewes, came Iesus, and stood in the midst, and saith vnto them, Peace bee vnto you.

³¹And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
