1 Corinthians 15:29-34

Lexham English Bible

²⁹ Otherwise, why do they do it, those who are being baptized on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why indeed are they being baptized on behalf of them? ³⁰ And why are we in danger every hour? ³¹ I die every day—yes indeed, by my boasting in you,^[a] which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord! ³² If according to a human perspective I fought wild beasts at Ephesus, what benefit is it to me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.^{[b] 33} Do not be deceived! “Bad company corrupts good morals.”^{[c] 34} Sober up correctly and stop sinning^[d], for some have no knowledge of God—I say this to your shame.
