1 Corinthians 15:1-9
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Concerning The Resurrection: Christ Was Raised From The Dead And Seen By Many
15 Now I make-known to you, brothers, the good-news which I announced-as-good-news to you, which you also received, in which you also stand, 2 through which you also are being saved— if [a] you are holding-on in that message I announced-as-good-news to you, unless[b] you believed in-vain. 3 For I delivered to you among the first[c] things what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 and that He was buried, and that He has been raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, 5 and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. 6 After that He appeared to over five-hundred brothers at-one-time, of whom the majority are remaining until now. But some fell-asleep. 7 After that He appeared to James, then to all the apostles. 8 And last of all, as-if-indeed[d] to the untimely-born[e] one, He appeared to me also. 9 For I am the least of the apostles— who am not fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
