1 Corinthians 15:43-49
New King James Version
43 (A)It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. 44 It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. 45 And so it is written, (B)“The first man Adam became a living being.” (C)The last Adam became (D)a life-giving spirit.
46 However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual. 47 (E)The first man was of the earth, (F)made[a] of dust; the second Man is [b]the Lord (G)from heaven. 48 As was the [c]man of dust, so also are those who are made of dust; (H)and as is the heavenly Man, so also are those who are heavenly. 49 And (I)as we have borne the image of the man of dust, (J)we[d] shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.
