51 Behold, I tell you a1 mystery: aWe shall not all sleep, bbut we shall all be changed—
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. aFor the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and athis mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: a“Death is swallowed up in victory.”
55 “O1a Death, where is your sting?
O Hades, where is your victory?”
O Hades, where is your victory?”
56 The sting of death is sin, and athe strength of sin is the law.
57 aBut thanks be to God, who gives us bthe victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 aTherefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing bthat your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
