1 Corinthians 15:12-20 But if the Meshiha is proclaimed that he rose from the dead, how are there among you some who say that there is no life for the dead?

Etheridge⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² But if the Meshiha is proclaimed that he rose from the dead, how are there among you some who say that there is no life for the dead? ¹³ And if there be no life for the dead, (then) neither hath the Meshiha risen. ¹⁴ And if the Meshiha hath not risen, vain is our proclamation, and vain also your faith. ¹⁵ But we are also found false witnesses of Aloha; for we have testified of Aloha that he hath raised the Meshiha, while he hath not raised (him). ¹⁶ For if the dead rise not, Meshiha also hath not risen ¹⁷ and if Meshiha hath not risen, your faith is made void and you are still in your sins. ¹⁸ And already have they too who have slept in Meshiha perished. ¹⁹ And if in this life only we hope in the Meshiha, more miserable are we than all men. ²⁰ BUT now hath the Meshiha risen from among the dead, and become the first-fruits of those who sleep.
