1 Corinthians 15:51-58

English Standard Version

⁵¹ Behold! I tell you a mystery. ^(A)We shall not all sleep, ^(B)but we shall all be changed, ⁵² in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For ^(C)the trumpet will sound, and ^(D)the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. ⁵³ For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and ^(E)this mortal body must put on immortality. ⁵⁴ When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written:

⁵⁶ The sting of death is sin, and ^(H)the power of sin is the law. ⁵⁷ But thanks be to God, ^(I)who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

^58 (J)Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in ^(K)the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord ^(L)your labor is not in vain.
