1 Corinthians 15:30-32
New English Translation
30 Why too are we in danger every hour? 31 Every day I am in danger of death! This is as sure as[a] my boasting in you,[b] which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord. 32 If from a human point of view I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what did it benefit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.[c]

Thus, the shorter reading is slightly preferred.
