1 Corinthians 15:13-20

Darby Translation

¹³ But if there is not a resurrection of [those that are] dead, neither is Christ raised:

¹⁴ but if Christ is not raised, then, indeed, vain also [is] our preaching, and vain also your faith.

¹⁵ And we are found also false witnesses of God; for we have witnessed concerning God that he raised the Christ, whom he has not raised if indeed [those that are] dead are not raised.

¹⁶ For if [those that are] dead are not raised, neither is Christ raised;

¹⁷ but if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye are yet in your sins.

¹⁸ Then indeed also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

¹⁹ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are [the] most miserable of all men.

²⁰ (But now Christ is raised from among [the] dead, first-fruits of those fallen asleep.
