New Revised Standard w/ Apocrypha NRSA
New International Version NIV
42 So it is with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable.
42
So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable;
43 It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.
43
it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;
44 It is sown a physical body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual body.
44
it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.
45 Thus it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living being"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
45
So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being” ; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit.
46 But it is not the spiritual that is first, but the physical, and then the spiritual.
46
The spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and after that the spiritual.
47 The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven.
47
The first man was of the dust of the earth; the second man is of heaven.
48 As was the man of dust, so are those who are of the dust; and as is the man of heaven, so are those who are of heaven.
48
As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.
49 Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we will also bear the image of the man of heaven.
49
And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man, so shall we bear the image of the heavenly man.
50 What I am saying, brothers and sisters, is this: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.
50
I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.
51 Listen, I will tell you a mystery! We will not all die, but we will all be changed,
51
Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—
