1 Corinthians 15:45 — 1 Corinthians 16:10
45 So also it is written, “The first man, aAdam, became a bliving 1soul”; the last Adam became a clife-giving 1Spirit.
46 But 1the spiritual is not first but 2the soulish, then the spiritual:
47 The first man is 1out of the aearth, earthy; the 2second man is 3out of bheaven.
48 As 1the earthy is, such are 2they also that are earthy; and as 3the heavenly is, such are 4they also that are aheavenly.
49 And even as we have borne the 1aimage of the earthy, we will also bear the 1bimage of the heavenly.
50 Now this I say, brothers, that 1aflesh and blood cannot inherit the bkingdom of God, neither does ccorruption inherit dincorruption.
51 Behold, I tell you aa 1mystery: We will not all 2bsleep, but we will all be 3cchanged,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the 1last atrumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the 2dead will be braised incorruptible, and 3we will be changed.
53 For 1this acorruptible must put on incorruption, and 1this bmortal must put on immortality.
54 And 1when this corruptible will put on incorruption and this mortal will put on immortality, then the word which is written will come to pass, a“Death has been bswallowed up 2unto 3cvictory.”
55 1Where, aO death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your bsting?
56 The 1sting of adeath is sin, and the 2power of bsin is the claw.
57 But athanks be to God who gives us the 1bvictory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, be 1asteadfast, immovable, always abounding in the 2bwork of the Lord, knowing that your 3clabor is not din vain in the Lord.
CHAPTER 16
1 Now concerning the 1acollection for the saints, 2just as I bdirected the cchurches of Galatia, so you also do.
2 On the 1afirst day of the week each one of you should lay aside in store to himself whatever he may have been prospered, that no collections be made when I come.
3 And when I arrive, whomever you approve, I will asend them with letters to carry your 1gift to bJerusalem;
4 And if it is fitting for me also to go, they will go with me.
5 Now I will acome to you when I pass through bMacedonia, for I will pass through Macedonia.
6 And perhaps I will stay with you, or even spend the awinter, that you may bsend me forward wherever I may go.
7 For I do not wish to see you now just in apassing, for I am hoping to remain with you for some time, if the Lord bpermits.
8 But I will remain in 1aEphesus until bPentecost,
9 For a adoor is opened to me, great and efficacious, and there are many bopposers.
10 Now if aTimothy comes, see that he is with you without fear; for he is working the bwork of the Lord, even as I am.
