Etheridge(i)
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.
21 And as by man was death, so also by man is the life of the dead.
