1 Corinthians 15:43-53

Legacy Standard Bible

⁴³ it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in ^(A)glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; ⁴⁴ it is sown a ^(B)natural body, it is raised a ^(C)spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. ⁴⁵ So also it is written, “The first ^(D)man, Adam, became a living soul.” The ^(E)last Adam became a ^(F)life-giving spirit. ⁴⁶ However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. ⁴⁷ The first man is ^(G)from the earth, ^[a](H)earthy; the second man is from heaven. ⁴⁸ As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, ^(I)so also are those who are heavenly. ⁴⁹ And just as we have ^(J)borne the image of the earthy, ^[b]we ^(K)will also bear the image of the heavenly.

⁵⁰ Now I say this, brothers, that ^(L)flesh and blood cannot ^(M)inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the corruptible inherit ^(N)the incorruptible. ⁵¹ Behold, I tell you a ^(O)mystery: we will not all sleep, but we will all be ^(P)changed, ⁵² in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For ^(Q)the trumpet will sound, and ^(R)the dead will be raised incorruptible, and ^(S)we will be changed. ⁵³ For this corruptible must put on ^(T)the incorruptible, and this ^(U)mortal must put on immortality.
