But, now, hath Christ been raised from among the dead, - a firstfruit of them who have fallen asleep;

For, since indeed, through a man, came death, through a man, also cometh the raising of the dead;

For, just as, in the Adam, all die, so, also, in the Christ, shall all be made alive.

But, each, in his own rank: - A firstfruit, Christ, after that, they who are the Christ's, in his presence,

Afterwards, the end - whensoever he delivereth up the kingdom unto his God and Father, whensoever he shall bring to nought all rule and all authority and power;

For he must needs reign, until he shall put all his enemies under his feet:

As a last enemy, death, is to be destroyed;

For - He put, all things, in subjection under his feet. But, whensoever it shall be said - all things are in subjection! - it is evident that it means, - Except him who did put into subjection, unto him, the all things -

But whensoever have been put into subjection, unto him, the all things, then, the Son himself, alsoshall be put in subjection unto him who put in subjection, unto him, the all things, - that, God, may be, all things in all.
