1 Corinthians 15:20-23 But now Christ is raised from the dead, -the first fruit of them who have fallen asleep.

Living_Oracles⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁰ But now Christ is raised from the dead, -the first fruit of them who have fallen asleep. ²¹ For since through a man came death, through a man also comes the resurrection of the dead. ²² Therefore, as by Adam all die, so also by Christ all shall be made alive. ²³ But every one in his own rank: Christ the first fruit; they that are Christ's, afterward, at his coming.
