1 Corinthians 15:42-49

New International Version

⁴² So will it be^(A) with the resurrection of the dead.^(B) The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable;^{(C) 43} it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory;^(D) it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; ⁴⁴ it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.^(E)

If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. ⁴⁵ So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”^[a];^(F) the last Adam,^(G) a life-giving spirit.^{(H) 46} The spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and after that the spiritual.^{(I) 47} The first man was of the dust of the earth;^(J) the second man is of heaven.^{(K) 48} As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.^{(L) 49} And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man,^(M) so shall we^[b] bear the image of the heavenly man.^(N)
