Qorintiyim Aleph (1 Corinthians) 15
15
1But brothers, I make known to you the Good News, which I brought as Good News to you, which you also did receive, and in which you stand,
2through which also you are being saved, if you hold fast that word I brought as Good News to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3For I delivered to you at the first that which I also received: that Messiah died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
4and that He was buried, and that He was raised the third day, according to the Scriptures,
5and that He was seen by Kĕpha, then by the twelve.
6After that He was seen by over five hundred brothers at one time, of whom the greater part remain till now, but some have fallen asleep.
7After that He was seen by Ya‛aqoḇ, then by all the emissaries.
8And last of all He was seen by me also, as if to one born prematurely.
9For I am the least of the emissaries, who am not worthy to be called an emissary, because I persecuted the assembly of Elohim.
10But by the favour of Elohim I am what I am, and His favour toward me was not in vain, but I laboured much more than they all, yet not I, but the favour of Elohim with me.
11Whether, then, it was I or they, so we proclaimed and so you believed.
12And if Messiah is proclaimed that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13And if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Messiah has not been raised.
14And if Messiah has not been raised, then our proclaiming is empty, and your belief also empty,
15and we are also found false witnesses of Elohim, because we have witnessed of Elohim that He raised up Messiah, whom He did not raise up, if then the dead are not raised.
16For if the dead are not raised, then neither Messiah has been raised.
17And if Messiah has not been raised, your belief is to no purpose, you are still in your sins!
18Then also those who have fallen asleep in Messiah have perished.
19If in this life only we have expectation in Messiah, we are of all men the most wretched.
20But now Messiah has been raised from the dead, and has become the first-fruit of those having fallen asleep.
21For since death is through a man, resurrection of the dead is also through a Man.
22For as all die in Aḏam, so also all shall be made alive in Messiah.
23And each in his own order: Messiah the first-fruits, then those who are of Messiah at His coming,
24then the end, when He delivers up the reign to Elohim the Father, when He has brought to naught all rule and all authority and power.
25For He has to reign until He has put all enemies under His feet.
26The last enemy to be brought to naught is death.
27For “He has put all under His feet.”# Psa. 8:6 But when He says “all are put under Him,” it is clear that He who put all under Him is excepted.
28And when all are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself shall also be subject to Him who put all under Him, in order that Elohim be all in all.
29Otherwise, what shall they do who are immersed for the dead, if the dead are not raised at all? Why indeed are they immersed for the dead?
30And why do we stand in danger every hour?
31I affirm, by the boasting in you which I have in Messiah יהושע our Master, I die day by day.
32If, as men do, I have fought with beasts at Ephesos, of what good is it to me? If the dead are not raised, “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”# Isa. 22:13; Isa. 56:12
33Do not be led astray, “Evil company corrupts good habits.”
34Wake up to soberness, righteously, and do not sin, for some do not have the knowledge of Elohim. I speak this to your shame.
35But someone might say, “How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?”
36Senseless one! What you sow is not made alive unless it dies.
37And as to what you sow: you do not sow the body which is to be, but a bare grain, it might be wheat or some other grain.
38But Elohim gives it a body as He wishes, and to each seed a body of its own.
39All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds.
40And there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the esteem of the heavenly is truly one, and the esteem of the earthly is another,
41one esteem of the sun, and another esteem of the moon, and another esteem of the stars – for star differs from star in esteem.
42So also is the resurrection of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption;
43it is sown in disrespect, it is raised in esteem; 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 has been written, “The first man Aḏam became a living being,”# Gen. 2:7 the last Aḏam a life-giving Spirit.
46The spiritual, however, was not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual.
47The first man was of the earth, earthy; the second Man is the Master from heaven.
48As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, so also are those who are heavenly.
49And as we have borne the likeness of the earthy, we shall also bear the likeness of the heavenly.
50And this I say, brothers, that flesh and blood is unable to inherit the reign of Elohim, neither does corruption inherit incorruption.
51See, I speak a secret to you: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53For this corruptible has to put on incorruption, and this mortal to put on immortality.
54And when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall come to be the word that has been written, “Death is swallowed up in overcoming.”# Isa. 28:5
55“O Death, where is your sting? O She’ol, where is your overcoming?”# Hosea 13:14
56And the sting of death is the sin, and the power of the sin is the Torah.
57But thanks to Elohim who gives us the overcoming through our Master יהושע Messiah.
58Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Master, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Master.

1 Corinthians 15
15
1 Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand, 2by which also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.
3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Messiah died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5and that he appeared to Kefa, then to the twelve. 6Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, most of whom remain until now, but some have also fallen asleep. 7Then he appeared to Jacob, then to all the emissaries, 8and last of all, as to the child born at the wrong time, he appeared to me also. 9For I am the least of the emissaries, who is not worthy to be called an emissary, because I persecuted the assembly of God. 10But by the grace of God I am what I am. His grace which was given to me was not futile, but I worked more than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11Whether then it is I or they, so we proclaim, and so you believed.
12 Now if Messiah is preached, that he has been raised from the dead, how do some amongst you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Messiah been raised. 14If Messiah has not been raised, then our proclaiming is in vain and your faith also is in vain. 15Yes, we are also found false witnesses of God, because we testified about God that he raised up Messiah, whom he didn’t raise up if it is true that the dead are not raised. 16For if the dead aren’t raised, neither has Messiah been raised. 17If Messiah has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins. 18Then they also who are fallen asleep in Messiah have perished. 19If we have only hoped in Messiah in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.
20 But now Messiah has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruit of those who are asleep. 21For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man. 22For as in Adam all die, so also in Messiah all will be made alive. 23But each in his own order: Messiah the first fruits, then those who are Messiah’s at his coming. 24Then the end comes, when he will deliver up the Kingdom to God the Father, when he will have abolished all rule and all authority and power. 25For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26The last enemy that will be abolished is death. 27For, “He put all things in subjection under his feet.”#Psalms 8:6 But when he says, “All things are put in subjection”, it is evident that he is excepted who subjected all things to him. 28When all things have been subjected to him, then the Son will also himself be subjected to him who subjected all things to him, that God may be all in all.
29 Or else what will they do who are immersed for the dead? If the dead aren’t raised at all, why then are they immersed for the dead? 30Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour? 31I affirm, by the boasting in you which I have in Messiah Yeshua our Lord, I die daily. 32If I fought with animals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, then “let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”#Isaiah 22:13 33Don’t be deceived! “Evil companionships corrupt good morals.” 34Wake up righteously and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.
35 But someone will say, “How are the dead raised?” and, “With what kind of body do they come?” 36You foolish one, that which you yourself sow is not made alive unless it dies. 37That which you sow, you don’t sow the body that will be, but a bare grain, maybe of wheat, or of some other kind. 38But God gives it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own. 39All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds. 40There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that of the terrestrial. 41There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown perishable; it is raised imperishable. 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 also a spiritual body.
45 So also it is written, “The first man Adam became a living soul.” #Genesis 2:7 The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46However, that which is spiritual isn’t first, but that which is natural, then that which is spiritual. 47The first man is of the earth, made of dust. The second man is the Lord from heaven. 48As is the one made of dust, such are those who are also made of dust; and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. 49As we have borne the image of those made of dust, let’s#15:49 NU, TR read “we will” instead of “let’s” also bear the image of the heavenly. 50Now I say this, brothers,#15:50 The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” that flesh and blood can’t inherit God’s Kingdom; neither does the perishable inherit imperishable.
51 Behold,#15:51 “Behold”, from “ἰδοὺ”, means look at, take notice, observe, see, or gaze at. It is often used as an interjection. I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, 52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last shofar. For the shofar will sound and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed. 53For this perishable body must become imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54But when this perishable body will have become imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”#Isaiah 25:8
55“Death, where is your sting?
Sheol,#15:55 or, Hell where is your victory?”#See Hosea 13:14
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah. 58Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
