1 Corinthians 15:40-49

New King James Version

⁴⁰ There are also ^[a]celestial bodies and ^[b]terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. ⁴¹ There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.

^42 (A)So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. ^43 (B)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, ^(C)“The first man Adam became a living being.” ^(D)The last Adam became ^(E)a life-giving spirit.

⁴⁶ However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual. ^47 (F)The first man was of the earth, ^(G)made^[c] of dust; the second Man is ^[d]the Lord ^(H)from heaven. ⁴⁸ As was the ^[e]man of dust, so also are those who are made of dust; ^(I)and as is the heavenly Man, so also are those who are heavenly. ⁴⁹ And ^(J)as we have borne the image of the man of dust, ^(K)we^[f] shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.
