1 Corinthians 15:32-34
1599 Geneva Bible
32 [a]If I have fought with beasts at Ephesus [b]after the manner of men, what advantageth it me, if the dead be not raised up? (A)[c]let us [d]eat and drink: for tomorrow we shall die.
33 [e]Be not deceived: evil speakings corrupt good manners.
34 Awake to live righteously, and sin not: for some have not the knowledge of God, I speak this to your shame.
