20But in fact[f]Christ has been raised from the dead,[g]the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.21For as[h]by a man came death,[i]by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead.22For[j]as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.23But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then[k]at his coming[l]those who belong to Christ.24Then comes the end, when he delivers[m]the kingdom to God the Father after destroying[n]every rule and every authority and power.25For he must reign[o]until he has put all his enemies under his feet.26The last enemy to be[p]destroyed is death.27For[q]“Godhas put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him.28When[r]all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that[s]God may be all in all.29Otherwise, what do people mean by being baptized on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized on their behalf?30Why are we[t]in danger every hour?31I protest, brothers, by[u]my pride in you, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord,[v]I die every day!32What do I gain if, humanly speaking,[w]I fought with beasts at Ephesus? If the dead are not raised,[x]“Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”33[y]Do not be deceived:[z]“Bad company ruins good morals.”34[a]Wake up from your drunken stupor, as is right, and do not go on sinning. For[b]some have no knowledge of God.[c]I say this to your shame.
