Verse 1

Brethren as pertayninge to the gospell which I preached vnto you which ye have also accepted and in the which ye continue

Verse 2

by which also ye are saved: I do you to wit after what maner I preached vnto you yf ye kepe it except ye have beleved in vayne.

Verse 3

For fyrst of all I delivered vnto you that which I receaved: how that Christ dyed for oure synnes agreinge to the scriptures:

Verse 4

and that he was buried and that he arose agayne the thyrd daye accordinge to the scriptures:

Verse 5

and that he he was sene of Cephas then of the twelve.

Verse 6

After that he was sene of moo the five hodred brethren at once: of which many remayne vnto this daye and many are fallen aslepe.

Verse 7

After that appered he to Iames then to all the Apostles.

Verse 8

And last of all he was sene of me as of one that was borne out of due tyme.

Verse 9

For I am the lest of all the Apostles which am not worthy to be called an Apostle because I persecuted the congregacion of God.

Verse 10

But by the grace of God I am that I am. And his grace which is in me was not in vayne: but I labored moare aboundauntly then they all not I but the grace of God which is with me.

Verse 11

Whether it were I or they so we preache and so have ye beleved.

Verse 12

If Christ be preached how that he rose fro deeth: how saye some that are amoge you that ther is no resurreccion from deeth?

Verse 13

If ther be no rysynge agayne from deeth: then is Christ not rysen.

Verse 14

If Christ be not rysen then is oure preachinge vayne and youre faith is also in vayne.

Verse 15

Ye and we are founde falce witnesses of God. For we have testifyed of God how that he raysyd vp Christ whom he raysyd not vp yf it be so that the deed ryse not vp agayne.

Verse 16

For yf the deed ryse not agayne then is Christ not rysen agayne.

Verse 17

If it be so yt Christ rose not then is youre fayth in vayne and yet are ye in youre synnes.

Verse 18

And therto they which are fallen a slepe in Christ are perished.

Verse 19

If in this lyfe only we beleve on christ then are we of all men the miserablest.

Verse 20

But now is Christ rysen from deeth and is become the fyrst frutes of them that slept.

Verse 21

For by a man came deeth and by a man came resurreccion fro deeth.

Verse 22

For as by Adam all dye: eve so by Christ shall all be made alive

Verse 23

and every man in his awne order. The fyrst is Christ then they yt are Christis at his commynge.

Verse 24

Then cometh the ende when he hath delivered vp ye kyngdome to God ye father when he hath put doune all rule auctorite and power.

Verse 25

For he must raygne tyll he have put all his enemyes vnder his fete.

Verse 26

The last enemye that shalbe destroyed is deeth.

Verse 27

For he hath put all thinges vnder his fete. But when he sayth all thinges are put vnder him it is manyfest that he is excepted which dyd put all thinges vnder him.

Verse 28

When all thinges are subdued vnto him: then shall the sonne also him selfe be subiecte vnto him that put all thinges vnder him yt God maye be all in all thinges.

Verse 29

Ether els what do they which are baptised over ye deed yf the deed ryse not at all? Why are they then baptised over the deed?

Verse 30

Ye and why stonde we in ieoperdy every houre?

Verse 31

By oure reioysinge which I have in Christ Iesu oure Lorde I dye dayly.

Verse 32

That I have fought with beastes at Ephesus after the maner of men what avautageth it me yf the deed ryse not agayne? Let vs eate and drynke to morowe we shall dye.

Verse 33

Be not deceaved: malicious speakinges corrupte good maners.

Verse 34

Awake truely out of slepe and synne not. For some have not the knowlege of God. I speake this vnto youre rebuke.

Verse 35

But some ma will saye: how aryse ye deed? with what bodyes come they in?

Verse 36

Thou fole that which thou sowest is not quickened except it dye.

Verse 37

And what sowest thow? Thow sowest not that body that shalbe: but bare corne (I meane ether of wheet or of some other)

Verse 38

and God geveth it a body at his pleasure to every seed a severall body.

Verse 39

All flesshe is not one manner of flesshe: but ther is one maner flesshe of men another maner flesshe of beastes another maner flesshe of fysshes and another of byrdes.

Verse 40

Ther are celestiall bodyes and ther are bodyes terrestriall. But ye glory of ye celestiall is one and ye glory of the terrestriall is another.

Verse 41

Ther is one maner glory of the sonne and another glory of the mone and another glory of the starres. For one starre differth fro another in glory.

Verse 42

So is the resurreccio of ye deed. It is sowe in corrupcio and ryseth in incorrupcion.

Verse 43

It is sowen in dishonoure and ryseth in honoure. It is sowe in weaknes and ryseth in power. It is sowne a naturall body and ryseth a spretuall body.

Verse 44

Ther is a naturall bodye and ther is a spretuall body:

Verse 45

as it is written: the fyrste man Adam was made a livinge soule: and ye last Ada was made a quickeninge sprete.

Verse 46

How be it yt is not fyrst which is spirituall: but yt which is naturall and then yt which is spretuall.

Verse 47

The fyrst ma is of the erth erthy: the seconde man is ye Lorde fro heave.

Verse 48

As is the erthy soche are they that are erthye. And as is the hevely soche are they yt are hevenly.

Verse 49

And as we have borne the ymage of the erthy so shall we beare the ymage of the hevenly.

Verse 50

This saye I brethren that flesshe and bloud canot inheret the kyngdome of God. Nether corrupcion inhereth vncorrupcion.

Verse 51

Beholde I shewe you a mystery. We shall not all slepe: but we shall all be chaunged

Verse 52

and that in a moment and in the twinclinge of an eye at the sounde of the last trompe. For the trompe shall blowe and ye deed shall ryse incorruptible and we shalbe chaunged.

Verse 53

For this corruptible must put on incorruptibilite: and this mortall must put on immortalite.

Verse 54

When this corruptible hath put on incorruptibilite and this mortall hath put on immortalite: then shalbe brought to passe ye sayinge yt is writte. Deeth is consumed in to victory.

Verse 55

Deeth where is thy stynge? Hell where is thy victory?

Verse 56

The stynge of deeth is synne: and the strength of synne is the lawe.

Verse 57

But thankes be vnto God which hath geven vs victory thorow oure Lorde Iesus Christ.

Verse 58

Therfore my deare brethren be ye stedfast and unmovable alwayes ryche in the workes of the Lorde for as moch as ye knowe how yt youre labour is not in vayne in the Lorde.
