New Century Version

1 Corinthians 15:40-43 New Century Version (NCV)

40. Also there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But the beauty of the heavenly bodies is one kind, and the beauty of the earthly bodies is another.

41. The sun has one kind of beauty, the moon has another beauty, and the stars have another. And each star is different in its beauty.

42. It is the same with the dead who are raised to life. The body that is “planted” will ruin and decay, but it is raised to a life that cannot be destroyed.

43. When the body is “planted,” it is without honor, but it is raised in glory. When the body is “planted,” it is weak, but when it is raised, it is powerful.
