1 Corinthians 15:43–52

TEXT EDITION
Pure Cambridge Edition selected
It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
In 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.

    12Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

    13(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

    14Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

    15But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

    16And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.

    17For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

    18Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

    19For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

    20Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

    21That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

15:35But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?

15:36Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:

15:37And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:

15:38But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.

15:39All 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.

15:40There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.

15:41There 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.

15:42So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

15:43It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:

Selected passage

15:44It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

Selected passage

15:45And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

Selected passage

15:46Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

Selected passage

15:47The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.

Selected passage

15:48As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.

Selected passage

15:49And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

Selected passage

15:50Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

Selected passage

15:51Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

Selected passage

15:52In 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.

Selected passage

15:53For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

15:54So 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.

15:55O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

15:56The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

15:57But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

15:58Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
