1ϯⲧⲁⲙⲟ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲓϩⲓϣⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩϥⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⲫⲏ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲓⲧϥ ⲫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ..
1Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, and in which you stand firm.
2ⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲛⲟϩⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧϥ ϫⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲁⲓϩⲓϣⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩϥⲓ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲓⲙⲏϯ ϩⲓⲕⲏ ⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ..
2By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3ⲁⲓϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲓϭⲓⲧϥ ϫⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ..
3For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
4ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲕⲟⲥϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁϩⲅ̅ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ..
4that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
5ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⳿ⲉⲕⲏⲫⲁ ⳿ⲓⲧⲁ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲓ̅ⲃ̅..
5and that He appeared to Cephas and then to the Twelve.
6ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲱⲥ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⲥⲁ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⳿ⲛⲫ̅ ⳿ⲛⲥⲟⲛ ⲉⲩⲥⲟⲡ ⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲟⲩϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ϣⲟⲡ ϣⲁ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉϯⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲛⲕⲉⲭⲱⲟⲩⲛⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲧ..
6After that, He appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.
7⳿ⲓⲧⲁ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⳿ⲉⲓⲁⲕⲱⲃⲟⲥ ⳿ⲓⲧⲁ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ..
7Then He appeared to James, then to all the apostles.

8And last of all He appeared to me also, as to one of untimely birth.
9⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲩϫⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϯⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲑⲣⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓϭⲟϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ϯⲉⲕ⳿ⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ..
9For I am the least of the apostles and am unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
10ⲉⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϯⲟⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϯⲟⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϥ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉϥϣⲟⲩⲓⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲓϭⲓϧⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲧⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲡⲓ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲉⲑⲛⲉⲙⲏⲓ..
10But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace to me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.
11⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲛⲏ ⲧⲉⲛϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ..
11Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed.
12ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲇⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲥⲉϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲡⲱⲥ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲓ..
12But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲓⲉ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲧⲱⲛϥ..
13If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.
14ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲧⲱⲛϥ ϩⲁⲣⲁ ⳿ϥϣⲟⲩⲓⲧ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⳿ϥϣⲟⲩⲓⲧ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲕⲉⲛⲁϩϯ..
14And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is worthless, and so is your faith.
15ⲥⲉⲛⲁϫⲉⲙⲉⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲛⲟⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫ ϧⲁ ⲫϯ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϧⲁ ⲫϯ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥϥ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ϩⲁⲣⲁ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲛⲁⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ..
15In that case, we are also exposed as false witnesses about God. For we have testified about God that He raised Christ from the dead, but He did not raise Him if in fact the dead are not raised.
16ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲛⲁⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲓⲉ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲧⲱⲛϥ..
16For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised.
17ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲧⲱⲛϥ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲗⲏⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⲉⲧⲓ ⲟⲛ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲭⲏ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲓ..
17And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.
18ⲓⲉ ϩⲁⲣⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲧ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲕⲟ..
18Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

19If our hope in Christ is for this life alone, we are to be pitied more than all men.
20ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏ ⲉⲑⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲧ⳿ⲁⲡⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲧ..
20But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
21⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲇⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲁ ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲕⲉⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ..
21For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.

22For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.

23But each in his own turn: Christ the firstfruits; then at His coming, those who belong to Him.
24⳿ⲓⲧⲁ ⲡⲓϫⲱⲕ ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛϯ ⳿ⲛϯⲙⲉⲧⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛⲕⲱⲣϥ ⳿ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ϫⲟⲙ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ..
24Then the end will come, when He hands over the kingdom to God the Father after He has destroyed all dominion, authority, and power.
25ϩⲱϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲣⲟ ϣⲁⲧⲉϥⲭⲁ ⲛⲉϥϫⲁϫⲓ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲥⲁⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥ ϭⲁⲗⲁⲩϫ..
25For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet.
26ⲡⲓϧⲁ⳿ⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲁϫⲓ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲕⲱⲣϥ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ..
26The last enemy to be destroyed is death.

27For “God has put everything under His feet.” Now when it says that everything has been put under Him, this clearly does not include the One who put everything under Him.
28⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲣⲉϣⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲭⲁⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ϭⲛⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ϩⲱϥ ⲡⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲉϥⲉ⳿ϭⲛⲉϫⲱϥ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲑⲣⲉ ⲉⲛⲭⲁⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ϭⲛⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ..
28And when all things have been subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will be made subject to Him who put all things under Him, so that God may be all in all.

29If these things are not so, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them?

30And why do we endanger ourselves every hour?

31I face death every day, brothers, as surely as I boast about you in Christ Jesus our Lord.

32If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus for human motives, what did I gain? If the dead are not raised, “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”

33Do not be deceived: “Bad company corrupts good character.”

34Sober up as you ought, and stop sinning; for some of you are ignorant of God. I say this to your shame.

35But someone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?”

36You fool! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.

37And what you sow is not the body that will be, but just a seed, perhaps of wheat or something else.

38But God gives it a body as He has designed, and to each kind of seed He gives its own body.

39Not all flesh is the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another, and fish another.

40There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But the splendor of the heavenly bodies is of one degree, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is of another.

41The sun has one degree of splendor, the moon another, and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor.

42So will it be with the resurrection of the dead: What is sown is perishable; it is raised imperishable.
43ⲥⲉⲥⲓϯ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϣⲱϣ ⳿ⲥⲛⲁⲧⲱⲛⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲱⲟⲩ ⲥⲉⲥⲓϯ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϫⲱⲃ ⲥⲛⲁⲧⲱⲛⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϫⲟⲙ..
43It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.
44ⲥⲉⲥⲓϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⳿ⲙⲯⲩⲭⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⳿ⲙⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⳿ⲙⲯⲩⲭⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲓⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ..
44It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.

45So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being;” the last Adam a life-giving spirit.

46The spiritual, however, was not first, but the natural, and then the spiritual.

47The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven.

48As was the earthly man, so also are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.

49And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so also shall we bear the likeness of the heavenly man.

50Now I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

51Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—

52in an instant, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

54When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come to pass: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

58Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast and immovable. Always excel in the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
