1 Corinthians 15:41-54
New King James Version
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[a] of dust; the second Man is [b]the Lord (H)from heaven. 48 As was the [c]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[d] shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.
Our Final Victory
50 Now this I say, brethren, that (L)flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. 51 Behold, I tell you a [e]mystery: (M)We shall not all sleep, (N)but we shall all be changed— 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. (O)For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and (P)this mortal must put on immortality. 54 So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: (Q)“Death is swallowed up in victory.”

1 Corinthians 15:41-54
New International Version
41 The sun has one kind of splendor,(A) the moon another and the stars another;(B) and star differs from star in splendor.
42 So will it be(C) with the resurrection of the dead.(D) The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable;(E) 43 it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory;(F) it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.(G)
If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45 So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”[a];(H) the last Adam,(I) a life-giving spirit.(J) 46 The spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and after that the spiritual.(K) 47 The first man was of the dust of the earth;(L) the second man is of heaven.(M) 48 As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.(N) 49 And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man,(O) so shall we[b] bear the image of the heavenly man.(P)
50 I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood(Q) cannot inherit the kingdom of God,(R) nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.(S) 51 Listen, I tell you a mystery:(T) We will not all sleep,(U) but we will all be changed(V)— 52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound,(W) the dead(X) will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53 For the perishable(Y) must clothe itself with the imperishable,(Z) and the mortal with immortality. 54 When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”[c](AA)
