1 Corinthians 15:51-58

Darby Translation

⁵¹ Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all fall asleep, but we shall all be changed,

⁵² in an instant, in [the] twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and *we* shall be changed.

⁵³ For this corruptible must needs put on incorruptibility, and this mortal put on immortality.

⁵⁴ But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruptibility, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the word written: Death has been swallowed up in victory.

⁵⁵ Where, O death, [is] thy sting? where, O death, thy victory?

⁵⁶ Now the sting of death [is] sin, and the power of sin the law;

⁵⁷ but thanks to God, who gives us the victory by our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁵⁸ So then, my beloved brethren, be firm, immovable, abounding always in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in [the] Lord.
