Ἐγώ I γάρ for εἰμί am ὁ the ἐλάχιστος least τῶν of the ἀποστόλων apostles, ὅς who οὐ not εἰμί am ἱκανός fit καλεῖσθαι to be called ἀπόστολος, an apostle, διότι because ἐδίωξα I persecuted τήν the ἐκκλησίαν church τοῦ - Θεοῦ· of God. χάριτι [By the] grace δέ however Θεοῦ of God, εἰμί I am ὅ what εἰμί, I am, καί and ἡ the χάρις grace αὐτοῦ of Him ἡ - εἰς toward ἐμέ me οὐ not κενή void ἐγενήθη, has been. ἀλλά Rather, περισσότερον more abundantly αὐτῶν than them πάντων all ἐκοπίασα, I toiled, οὐ not ἐγώ I δέ however, ἀλλά but ἡ the χάρις grace τοῦ - Θεοῦ of God ἡ that [was] σύν with ἐμοί. me. εἴτε Whether οὖν therefore ἐγώ I εἴτε or ἐκεῖνοι, they, οὕτως thus κηρύσσομεν we preach, καί and οὕτως thus ἐπιστεύσατε. you believed.

εἰ If δέ now Χριστός Christ κηρύσσεται is preached ὅτι that ἐκ out from νεκρῶν [the] dead ἐγήγερται, He has been raised, πῶς how λέγουσιν say ἐν among ὑμῖν you τινές some ὅτι that ἀνάστασις a resurrection νεκρῶν of [the] dead οὐ not ἔστιν; there is? εἰ If δέ however ἀνάστασις a resurrection νεκρῶν of [the] dead οὐ not ἔστιν, there is, οὐδέ neither Χριστός Christ ἐγήγερται· has been raised; εἰ if δέ then Χριστός Christ οὐ not ἐγήγερται, has been raised, κενόν [is] void ἄρα then καί also τό the κήρυγμα preaching ἡμῶν, of us, κενή void καί also ἡ the πίστις faith ὑμῶν· of you. εὑρισκόμεθα We are found δέ then καί also ψευδομάρτυρες false witnesses τοῦ - Θεοῦ, of God, ὅτι because ἐμαρτυρήσαμεν we have witnessed κατά concerning τοῦ - Θεοῦ God, ὅτι that ἤγειρεν He raised up τόν - Χριστόν, Christ, ὅν whom οὐ not ἤγειρεν He has raised εἴπερ if ἄρα then νεκροί [the] dead οὐ not ἐγείρονται. are raised. εἰ If γάρ for νεκροί [the] dead οὐ not ἐγείρονται, are raised, οὐδέ neither Χριστός Christ ἐγήγερται· has been raised; εἰ if δέ then Χριστός Christ οὐ not ἐγήγερται, has been raised, ματαία [is] futile ἡ the πίστις faith ὑμῶν, of you ἔτι still ἐστέ you are ἐν in ταῖς the ἁμαρτίαις sins ὑμῶν, of you. ἄρα Then καί also οἱ those κοιμηθέντες having fallen asleep ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ ἀπώλοντο. have perished. εἰ If ἐν in τῇ the ζωῇ life ταύτῃ this, ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ ἠλπικότες having hope ἐσμέν we are, μόνον, only, ἐλεεινότεροι more to be pitied πάντων than all ἀνθρώπων men ἐσμέν. we are.

Νυνί Now δέ however Χριστός Christ ἐγήγερται has been raised ἐκ out from νεκρῶν [the] dead, ἀπαρχή firstfruit τῶν of those κεκοιμημένων. having fallen asleep. ἐπειδή Since γάρ for δι ̓ by ἀνθρώπου a man [came] θάνατος, death, καί also δι ̓ by ἀνθρώπου a man ἀνάστασις resurrection νεκρῶν. of [the] dead. ὥσπερ For as γάρ indeed ἐν in τῷ - Ἀδάμ Adam πάντες all ἀποθνήσκουσιν, die, οὕτως so καί also ἐν in τῷ - Χριστῷ Christ, πάντες all ζωοποιηθήσονται. will be made alive. Ἕκαστος Each δέ however ἐν in τῷ the ἰδίῳ own τάγματι· order: ἀπαρχή [the] firstfruit Χριστός, Christ, ἔπειτα then οἱ those τοῦ of Χριστοῦ Christ ἐν at τῇ the παρουσίᾳ coming αὐτοῦ, of Him; εἶτα then τό the τέλος, end, ὅταν when παραδιδῷ He shall hand over τήν the βασιλείαν kingdom τῷ to the Θεῷ God καί and Πατρί, Father, ὅταν when καταργήσῃ He shall have annulled πᾶσαν all ἀρχήν dominion καί and πᾶσαν all ἐξουσίαν authority καί and δύναμιν. power. δεῖ It behooves γάρ for αὐτόν Him βασιλεύειν to reign ἄχρι until οὗ that θῇ He shall have put πάντας all τούς the ἐχθρούς enemies ὑπό under τούς the πόδας feet αὐτοῦ. of Him. ἔσχατος [The] last ἐχθρός enemy καταργεῖται to be abolished [is] ὁ - θάνατος· death. Πάντα All things,” γάρ for Ὑπέταξεν He has put in subjection, ὑπό under τούς the πόδας feet αὐτοῦ. of Him.” ὅταν When δέ however εἴπῃ it may be said ὅτι that πάντα all things ὑποτέτακται, have been put in subjection, δῆλον [it is] evident ὅτι that ἐκτός [is] excepted τοῦ the [One] ὑποτάξαντος having put in subjection αὐτῷ to Him τά - πάντα. all things. ὅταν When δέ now ὑποταγῇ shall have been put in subjection αὐτῷ to Him τά - πάντα, all things, τότε then καί also αὐτός Himself ὁ the Υἱός Son ὑποταγήσεται will be put in subjection τῷ to the [One] ὑποτάξαντι having put in subjection αὐτῷ to Him τά - πάντα, all things, ἵνα so that ᾖ may be ὁ - Θεός God τά - πάντα all ἐν in πᾶσιν. all.

Ἐπεί Otherwise τί what ποιήσουσιν will they do οἱ who βαπτιζόμενοι are baptized ὑπέρ for τῶν the νεκρῶν; dead? εἰ If ὅλως at all νεκροί [the] dead οὐ not ἐγείρονται, are raised, τί why καί also βαπτίζονται are they baptized ὑπέρ for αὐτῶν; them? τί Why καί also, ἡμεῖς we κινδυνεύομεν are in danger πᾶσαν every ὥραν; hour? καθ ̓ Every ἡμέραν day ἀποθνῄσκω, I die, νή as surely as τήν the ὑμετέραν in you καύχησιν, boasting, ἀδελφοί, brothers ἥν which ἔχω I have ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ Jesus τῷ the Κυρίῳ Lord ἡμῶν. of us. εἰ If κατά according to ἄνθρωπον man, ἐθηριομάχησα I fought wild beasts ἐν in Ἐφέσῳ, Ephesus, τί what μοι to me τό the ὄφελος; profit? εἰ If νεκροί [the] dead οὐ not ἐγείρονται, are raised, Φάγωμεν Let us eat καί and πίωμεν, let us drink, αὔριον tomorrow γάρ for ἀποθνήσκομεν. we die.” Μή Not πλανᾶσθε· be misled: Φθείρουσιν Do corrupt ἤθη morals χρηστά good, ὁμιλίαι companionships κακαί. bad.”

ἐκνήψατε Sober up δικαίως righteously καί and μή not ἁμαρτάνετε, sin; ἀγνωσίαν ignorance γάρ for Θεοῦ of God τινές some ἔχουσιν, have; πρός to ἐντροπήν [the] shame ὑμῖν of you λαλῶ. I speak.

Ἀλλά But ἐρεῖ will say τὶς· someone, Πῶς How ἐγείρονται are raised οἱ the νεκροί; dead? ποίῳ With what δέ then σώματι body ἔρχονται; do they come? ἄφρων, Fool σύ you! ὅ What σπείρεις, you sow οὐ not ζωοποιεῖται does come to life, ἐάν if μή not ἀποθάνῃ· it dies. καί And ὅ what σπείρεις, you sow, οὐ not τό the σῶμα body τό that γενησόμενον will be σπείρεις you sow, ἀλλά but γυμνόν a bare κόκκον grain, εἰ if τύχοι it may be σίτου of wheat, ἤ or τινός of some τῶν of the λοιπῶν· rest. ὁ - δέ But Θεός God δίδωσιν gives αὐτῷ it σῶμα a body, καθώς as ἠθέλησεν, He has willed, καί and ἑκάστῳ to each τῶν of the σπερμάτων seeds, ἴδιον its own σῶμα. body. οὐ Not πᾶσα all σάρξ flesh [is] ἡ the αὐτή same σάρξ flesh, ἀλλά but ἄλλη one μέν indeed ἀνθρώπων, of men, ἄλλη another δέ now σάρξ flesh κτηνῶν, of beasts, ἄλλη another δέ now σάρξ flesh πτηνῶν, of birds, ἄλλη another δέ now ἰχθύων. of fish. καί And σώματα bodies [there are] ἐπουράνια, heavenly, καί and σώματα bodies ἐπίγεια· earthly. ἀλλά But ἑτέρα one μέν truly ἡ [is] the τῶν of the ἐπουρανίων heavenly δόξα, glory, ἑτέρα another δέ now ἡ that τῶν of the ἐπιγείων. earthly. ἄλλη One [is] δόξα [the] glory ἡλίου, of [the] sun, καί and ἄλλη another δόξα [the] glory σελήνης, of [the] moon, καί and ἄλλη another δόξα [the] glory ἀστέρων· of [the] stars; ἀστήρ star γάρ for ἀστέρος from star διαφέρει differs ἐν in δόξῃ. glory. Οὕτως So καί also [is] ἡ the ἀνάστασις resurrection τῶν of the νεκρῶν. dead. σπείρεται It is sown ἐν in φθορᾷ, decay, ἐγείρεται it is raised ἐν in ἀφθαρσίᾳ· immortality. σπείρεται It is sown ἐν in ἀτιμίᾳ, dishonor, ἐγείρεται it is raised ἐν in δόξῃ· glory. σπείρεται It is sown ἐν in ἀσθενείᾳ, weakness, ἐγείρεται it is raised ἐν in δυνάμει· power. σπείρεται It is sown σῶμα a body ψυχικόν, natural, ἐγείρεται it is raised σῶμα a body πνευματικόν. spiritual. εἰ If ἔστιν there is σῶμα a body ψυχικόν, natural, ἔστιν there is καί also πνευματικόν. spiritual. οὕτως So καί also γέγραπται· it has been written: Ἐγένετο Became ὁ the πρῶτος first ἄνθρωπος man Ἀδάμ Adam εἰς into ψυχήν a soul ζῶσαν, living; ὁ the ἔσχατος last Ἀδάμ Adam εἰς into πνεῦμα a spirit ζωοποιοῦν. life-giving.” Ἀλλ ̓ However οὐ not πρῶτον first [was] τό the πνευματικόν spiritual, ἀλλά but τό the ψυχικόν, natural, ἔπειτα then τό the πνευματικόν. spiritual. ὁ The πρῶτος first ἄνθρωπος man ἐκ [was] from γῆς [the] earth, χοϊκός, made of dust; ὁ the δεύτερος second ἄνθρωπος man ἐκ from οὐρανοῦ. heaven. οἷος As ὁ the [one] χοϊκός, made of dust, τοιοῦτοι so καί also [are] οἱ those χοϊκοί, of the earth; καί and οἷος as ὁ the ἐπουράνιος, heavenly [one], τοιοῦτοι so καί also οἱ those ἐπουράνιοι· of heaven. καί And καθώς as ἐφορέσαμεν we have born τήν the εἰκόνα image τοῦ of the χοϊκοῦ, earthly, φορέσομεν we shall bear καί also τήν the εἰκόνα image τοῦ of the ἐπουρανίου. heavenly.

Τοῦτο This δέ now φημί, I say, ἀδελφοί, brothers, ὅτι that σάρξ flesh καί and αἷμα blood, βασιλείαν [the] kingdom Θεοῦ of God κληρονομῆσαι to inherit οὐ not δύναται is able, οὐδέ nor ἡ the φθορά decay, τήν the ἀφθαρσίαν immortality κληρονομεῖ. does inherit. Ἰδού Behold, μυστήριον a mystery ὑμῖν to you λέγω· I tell. πάντες All οὐ not κοιμηθησόμεθα, we will sleep; πάντες all δέ however ἀλλαγησόμεθα, we will be changed — ἐν in ἀτόμῳ, an instant, ἐν in ῥιπῇ [the] twinkling ὀφθαλμοῦ, of an eye, ἐν at τῇ the ἐσχάτῃ last σάλπιγγι· trumpet. σαλπίσει The trumpet will sound γάρ for, καί and οἱ the νεκροί dead ἐγερθήσονται will be raised ἄφθαρτοι imperishable, καί and ἡμεῖς we ἀλλαγησόμεθα. will be changed. δεῖ It behooves γάρ for τό the φθαρτόν perishable τοῦτο this, ἐνδύσασθαι to put on ἀφθαρσίαν imperishable; καί and τό the θνητόν mortal τοῦτο this, ἐνδύσασθαι to put on ἀθανασίαν. immortality. Ὅταν When δέ now τό the φθαρτόν perishable τοῦτο this ἐνδύσηται shall have put on ἀφθαρσίαν [the] imperishable, καί and τό the θνητόν mortal τοῦτο this ἐνδύσηται shall have put on ἀθανασίαν, immortality, τότε then γενήσεται will come to pass ὁ the λόγος word ὁ - γεγραμμένος· having been written: Κατεπόθη Has been swallowed up ὁ - θάνατος death εἰς in νῖκος. victory.”

Ποῦ Where σου, of you, θάνατε, O death, τό the νῖκος; victory? ποῦ Where σου, of you, θάνατε, O death, τό the κέντρον; sting?”

Τό - δέ And κέντρον the sting τοῦ - θανάτου of death [is] ἡ - ἁμαρτία, sin; ἡ - δέ and δύναμις the power τῆς - ἁμαρτίας of sin, ὁ the νόμος· law; τῷ to δέ however Θεῷ God χάρις [be] thanks, τῷ the [One] διδόντι giving ἡμῖν us τό the νῖκος victory διά through τοῦ the Κυρίου Lord ἡμῶν of us Ἰησοῦ Jesus Χριστοῦ. Christ. Ὥστε, Therefore, ἀδελφοί brothers μου of me ἀγαπητοί, beloved, ἑδραῖοι steadfast γίνεσθε, be, ἀμετακίνητοι, immovable, περισσεύοντες abounding ἐν in τῷ the ἔργῳ work τοῦ of the Κυρίου Lord πάντοτε, always, εἰδότες knowing ὅτι that ὁ the κόπος toil ὑμῶν of you οὐ not ἔστιν is κενός in vain ἐν in Κυρίῳ. [the] Lord.

Περί Concerning δέ now τῆς the λογείας collection τῆς which [is] εἰς for τούς the ἁγίους saints, ὥσπερ as διέταξα I have directed ταῖς the ἐκκλησίαις churches τῆς - Γαλατίας, of Galatia, οὕτως so καί also ὑμεῖς you ποιήσατε. are to do. κατά Every μίαν first σαββάτου of the week, ἕκαστος each ὑμῶν of you παρ ̓ aside ἑαυτῷ him τιθέτω let put, θησαυρίζων treasuring up ὅ τὶ what ἐάν if εὐοδῶται, he may be prospered in, ἵνα so that μή not ὅταν when ἔλθω I might come τότε then λογεῖαι collections γίνωνται. there should be. ὅταν When δέ then παραγένωμαι, I shall have arrived, οὕς whomever ἐάν if δοκιμάσητε, you might approve, δι ̓ with ἐπιστολῶν letters τούτους these πέμψω I will send ἀπενεγκεῖν to carry τήν the χάριν bounty ὑμῶν of you εἰς to Ἰερουσαλήμ· Jerusalem. ἐάν If δέ then ἄξιον suitable ᾖ it is τοῦ for κἀμέ me also πορεύεσθαι, to go, σύν with ἐμοί me πορεύσονται. they will go.

Ἐλεύσομαι I will come δέ however πρός to ὑμᾶς you, ὅταν when Μακεδονίαν Macedonia διέλθω· I shall have gone through; Μακεδονίαν Macedonia γάρ for διέρχομαι, I am going through. πρός With ὑμᾶς you δέ then τυχόν possibly παραμενῶ I will stay, ἤ or καί even παραχειμάσω, I will winter, ἵνα so that ὑμεῖς you με me προπέμψητε may equip, οὗ wherever ἐάν if πορεύωμαι. I may go. οὐ Not θέλω I want γάρ for ὑμᾶς you ἄρτι now ἐν in παρόδῳ passing ἰδεῖν, to see; ἐλπίζω I hope γάρ indeed χρόνον a time τινά certain ἐπιμεῖναι to remain πρός with ὑμᾶς you, ἐάν if ὁ the Κύριος Lord ἐπιτρέψῃ. permits. ἐπιμενῶ I will remain δέ however ἐν in Ἐφέσῳ Ephesus ἕως until τῆς - Πεντηκοστῆς· Pentecost. θύρα A door γάρ for μοι to me ἀνέῳγεν has opened μεγάλη great καί and ἐνεργής, productive, καί and ἀντικείμενοι are opposing πολλοί. many.

Ἐάν If δέ now ἔλθῃ comes Τιμόθεος, Timothy, βλέπετε, see ἵνα that ἀφόβως without fear γένηται he might be πρός with ὑμᾶς· you; τό the γάρ for ἔργον work Κυρίου of [the] Lord ἐργάζεται he is doing, ὡς as κἀγώ· also I. μή Not τὶς anyone οὖν therefore αὐτόν him ἐξουθενήσῃ. should despise. προπέμψατε Equip δέ however αὐτόν him ἐν in εἰρήνῃ, peace, ἵνα so that ἔλθῃ he might come πρός to με· me; ἐκδέχομαι I am expecting γάρ for αὐτόν him, μετά with τῶν the ἀδελφῶν. brothers. Περί Concerning δέ now Ἀπολλῶ Apollos τοῦ the ἀδελφοῦ, brother, πολλά greatly παρεκάλεσα I exhorted αὐτόν, him ἵνα that ἔλθῃ he should go πρός to ὑμᾶς you μετά with τῶν the ἀδελφῶν· brothers, καί and πάντως at all οὐ not ἦν was θέλημα [his] will ἵνα that νῦν now ἔλθῃ· he should come; ἐλεύσεται he will come δέ however ὅταν when εὐκαιρήσῃ. he shall have opportunity.
