³⁵ But some one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what manner of body do they come?

³ And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord Jehovah, thou knowest.

²¹ who shall fashion anew the body of our humiliation, `that it may be' conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working whereby he is able even to subject all things unto himself.

³⁸ but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.

³⁹ All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one `flesh' of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes.

⁴⁰ There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the `glory' of the terrestrial is another.

⁴¹ There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differeth from another star in glory.

⁴² So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

⁴³ it is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:

⁴⁴ it is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual `body'.

⁴⁵ So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam `became' a life-giving spirit.

⁴⁶ Howbeit that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual.

⁴⁷ The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.

⁴⁸ As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.

⁴⁹ And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

⁵⁰ Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

⁵¹ Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,

⁵² in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

⁵³ For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

¹⁹ Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he still find fault? For who withstandeth his will?

¹⁰ They said therefore unto him, How then were thine eyes opened?

⁹ Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

⁴ Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter a second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

²⁹ But Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.

³⁰ For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as angels in heaven.

¹¹ Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off.

⁵ As thou knowest not what is the way of the wind, `nor' how the bones `do grow' in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knowest not the work of God who doeth all.

¹¹ And they say, How doth God know? And is there knowledge in the Most High?

¹³ And thou sayest, What doth God know? Can he judge through the thick darkness?

¹² But vain man is void of understanding, Yea, man is born `as' a wild ass's colt.
