1 Corinthians 15:54-58
New American Standard Bible
54 But when this [a]perishable puts on [b]the imperishable, and this mortal puts on immortality, then will come about the saying that is written: “(A)Death has been swallowed up in victory. 55 (B)Where, O Death, is your victory? Where, O Death, is your sting?” 56 The sting of (C)death is sin, and (D)the power of sin is the Law; 57 but (E)thanks be to God, who gives us the (F)victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 (G)Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, be firm, immovable, always excelling in (H)the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

1 Corinthians 15:54-58
American Standard Version
54 But when [a]this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, [b]Death is swallowed up [c]in victory. 55 [d]O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting? 56 The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law: 57 but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not [e]vain in the Lord.
