for if dead persons do not rise, neither hath Christ risen,

for since through man [is] the death, also through man [is] a rising again of the dead,

for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all shall be made alive,

for it behoveth him to reign till he may have put all the enemies under his feet --

for all things He did put under his feet, and, when one may say that all things have been subjected, [it is] evident that He is excepted who did subject the all things to him,

Seeing what shall they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? why also are they baptized for the dead?

And I will come unto you, when I pass through Macedonia -- for Macedonia I do pass through --

for a door to me hath been opened -- great and effectual -- and withstanders [are] many.

And if Timotheus may come, see that he may become without fear with you, for the work of the Lord he doth work, even as I,

for they did refresh my spirit and yours; acknowledge ye, therefore, those who [are] such.
