| | | 51) | Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, |
52) | In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. |
53) | For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. |
54) | So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. |
55) | O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? |
|
|
|
| 1) | For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. |
2) | For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: |
3) | If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. |
4) | For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. |
5) | Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. |
6) | Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: |
|
|
|
| 21) | For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. |
22) | But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. |
23) | For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: |
|
|
|
| 14) | Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; |
15) | And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. |
16) | For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham. |
|
|
|
| 25) | For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: |
26) | And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: |
27) | Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me. |
