1 Corinthians 15
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
54 Ref But when this has taken place, then that which was said in the Writings will come true, Death is overcome by life.
55 Ref O death, where is your power? O death, where are your pains?
56 Ref The pain of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
57 Ref But praise be to God who gives us strength to overcome through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Ref For this cause, my dear brothers, be strong in purpose and unmoved, ever giving yourselves to the work of the Lord, because you are certain that your work is not without effect in the Lord.
American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)
54 Ref But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 Ref O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?
56 Ref The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
57 Ref but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Ref Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not vain in the Lord.
