New Living Translation

1 Corinthians 15:36-39 New Living Translation (NLT)

36. What a foolish question! When you put a seed into the ground, it doesn’t grow into a plant unless it dies first.

37. And what you put in the ground is not the plant that will grow, but only a bare seed of wheat or whatever you are planting.

38. Then God gives it the new body he wants it to have. A different plant grows from each kind of seed.

39. Similarly there are different kinds of flesh—one kind for humans, another for animals, another for birds, and another for fish.
