New English Translation

1 Corinthians 15:27-36 New English Translation (NET)

27. For he has put everything in subjection under his feet. But when it says “everything” has been put in subjection, it is clear that this does not include the one who put everything in subjection to him.

28. And when all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to the one who subjected everything to him, so that God may be all in all.

29. Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, then why are they baptized for them?

30. Why too are we in danger every hour?

31. Every day I am in danger of death! This is as sure as my boasting in you, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.

32. If from a human point of view I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what did it benefit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.

33. Do not be deceived: “Bad company corrupts good morals.”

34. Sober up as you should, and stop sinning! For some have no knowledge of God – I say this to your shame!

35. But someone will say, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?”

36. Fool! What you sow will not come to life unless it dies.
