Now, if, Christ is proclaimed, that, from among the dead, he hath been raised, how say some, among you - resurrection of the dead, there is none?

But, if, resurrection of the dead, there is none, not even Christ, hath been raised;

And, if Christ, hath not been raised, void, after all, is our proclamation, void also, our faith, -

And we are found, even false-witnesses of God, because we have witnessed respecting God, that he raised the Christ, - whom he did not raise, if, indeed, after all, the dead are not raised!

And, if Christ hath not been raised, to no purpose, is your faith, yet, are ye in your sins!

Hence also, they who are fallen asleep in Christ, are lost:

If, in this life, in Christ, we have hoped - and that is all, we are, of all men, most to be pitied.
