1 Corinthians 15:12-27 Now if Christ is preached that he is raised from among the dead, how say some among you that there is not a resurrection of those that are dead?

Darby⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Now if Christ is preached that he is raised from among [the] dead, how say some among you that there is not a resurrection of [those that are] dead? ¹³ But if there is not a resurrection of [those that are] dead, neither is Christ raised: ¹⁴ but if Christ is not raised, then, indeed, vain also [is] our preaching, and vain also your faith. ¹⁵ And we are found also false witnesses of God; for we have witnessed concerning God that he raised the Christ, whom he has not raised if indeed [those that are] dead are not raised. ¹⁶ For if [those that are] dead are not raised, neither is Christ raised; ¹⁷ but if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye are yet in your sins. ¹⁸ Then indeed also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. ¹⁹ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are [the] most miserable of all men. ²⁰ (But now Christ is raised from among [the] dead, first-fruits of those fallen asleep. ²¹ For since by man [came] death, by man also resurrection of [those that are] dead. ²² For as in the Adam all die, thus also in the Christ all shall be made alive. ²³ But each in his own rank: [the] first-fruits, Christ; then those that are the Christ`s at his coming. ²⁴ Then the end, when he gives up the kingdom to him [who is] God and Father; when he shall have annulled all rule and all authority and power. ²⁵ For he must reign until he put all enemies under his feet. ²⁶ [The] last enemy [that] is annulled [is] death. ²⁷ For he has put all things in subjection under his feet. But when he says that all things are put in subjection, [it is] evident that [it is] except him who put all things in subjection to him.
