1 Corinthians 15
1 But I make known to you, brethren, the glad tidings which I announced to you, which also ye received, in which also ye stand,
he bhrAtaraH, yaH susaMvAdo mayA yuShmatsamIpe nivedito yUya ncha yaM gR^ihItavanta Ashritavantashcha taM puna ryuShmAn vij nApayAmi|
2 by which also ye are saved, (if ye hold fast the word which I announced to you as the glad tidings, ) unless indeed ye have believed in vain.
yuShmAkaM vishvAso yadi vitatho na bhavet tarhi susaMvAdayuktAni mama vAkyAni smaratAM yuShmAkaM tena susaMvAdena paritrANaM jAyate|
3 For I delivered to you, in the first place, what also I had received, that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures;
yato. ahaM yad yat j nApitastadanusArAt yuShmAsu mukhyAM yAM shikShAM samArpayaM seyaM, shAstrAnusArAt khrIShTo. asmAkaM pApamochanArthaM prANAn tyaktavAn,
4 and that he was buried; and that he was raised the third day, according to the scriptures;
shmashAne sthApitashcha tR^itIyadine shAstrAnusArAt punarutthApitaH|
5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.
sa chAgre kaiphai tataH paraM dvAdashashiShyebhyo darshanaM dattavAn|
6 Then he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the most remain until now, but some also have fallen asleep.
tataH paraM pa nchashatAdhikasaMkhyakebhyo bhrAtR^ibhyo yugapad darshanaM dattavAn teShAM kechit mahAnidrAM gatA bahutarAshchAdyApi varttante|
7 Then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles;
tadanantaraM yAkUbAya tatpashchAt sarvvebhyaH preritebhyo darshanaM dattavAn|
8 and last of all, as to an abortion, he appeared to me also.
sarvvasheShe. akAlajAtatulyo yo. ahaM, so. ahamapi tasya darshanaM prAptavAn|
9 For I am the least of the apostles, who am not fit to be called apostle, because I have persecuted the assembly of God.
Ishvarasya samitiM prati daurAtmyAcharaNAd ahaM preritanAma dharttum ayogyastasmAt preritAnAM madhye kShudratamashchAsmi|
10 But by God's grace I am what I am; and his grace, which [was] towards me, has not been vain; but I have laboured more abundantly than they all, but not I, but the grace of God which [was] with me.
yAdR^isho. asmi tAdR^isha IshvarasyAnugraheNaivAsmi; aparaM mAM prati tasyAnugraho niShphalo nAbhavat, anyebhyaH sarvvebhyo mayAdhikaH shramaH kR^itaH, kintu sa mayA kR^itastannahi matsahakAriNeshvarasyAnugraheNaiva|
11 Whether, therefore, I or they, thus we preach, and thus ye have believed.
ataeva mayA bhavet tai rvA bhavet asmAbhistAdR^ishI vArttA ghoShyate saiva cha yuShmAbhi rvishvAsena gR^ihItA|
12 Now if Christ is preached that he is raised from among [the] dead, how say some among you that there is not a resurrection of [those that are] dead?
mR^ityudashAtaH khrIShTa utthApita iti vArttA yadi tamadhi ghoShyate tarhi mR^italokAnAm utthiti rnAstIti vAg yuShmAkaM madhye kaishchit kutaH kathyate?
13 But if there is not a resurrection of [those that are] dead, neither is Christ raised:
mR^itAnAm utthiti ryadi na bhavet tarhi khrIShTo. api notthApitaH
14 but if Christ is not raised, then, indeed, vain also [is] our preaching, and vain also your faith.
khrIShTashcha yadyanutthApitaH syAt tarhyasmAkaM ghoShaNaM vitathaM yuShmAkaM vishvAso. api vitathaH|
15 And we are found also false witnesses of God; for we have witnessed concerning God that he raised the Christ, whom he has not raised if indeed [those that are] dead are not raised.
vaya ncheshvarasya mR^iShAsAkShiNo bhavAmaH, yataH khrIShTa stenotthApitaH iti sAkShyam asmAbhirIshvaramadhi dattaM kintu mR^itAnAmutthiti ryadi na bhavet tarhi sa tena notthApitaH|
16 For if [those that are] dead are not raised, neither is Christ raised;
yato mR^itAnAmutthiti ryati na bhavet tarhi khrIShTo. apyutthApitatvaM na gataH|
17 but if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye are yet in your sins.
khrIShTasya yadyanutthApitaH syAt tarhi yuShmAkaM vishvAso vitathaH, yUyam adyApi svapApeShu magnAstiShThatha|
18 Then indeed also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
aparaM khrIShTAshritA ye mAnavA mahAnidrAM gatAste. api nAshaM gatAH|
19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are [the] most miserable of all men.
khrIShTo yadi kevalamihaloke. asmAkaM pratyAshAbhUmiH syAt tarhi sarvvamartyebhyo vayameva durbhAgyAH|
20 (But now Christ is raised from among [the] dead, first-fruits of those fallen asleep.
idAnIM khrIShTo mR^ityudashAta utthApito mahAnidrAgatAnAM madhye prathamaphalasvarUpo jAtashcha|
21 For since by man [came] death, by man also resurrection of [those that are] dead.
yato yadvat mAnuShadvArA mR^ityuH prAdurbhUtastadvat mAnuShadvArA mR^itAnAM punarutthitirapi pradurbhUtA|
22 For as in the Adam all die, thus also in the Christ all shall be made alive.
AdamA yathA sarvve maraNAdhInA jAtAstathA khrIShTena sarvve jIvayiShyante|
23 But each in his own rank: [the] first-fruits, Christ; then those that are the Christ's at his coming.
kintvekaikena janena nije nije paryyAya utthAtavyaM prathamataH prathamajAtaphalasvarUpena khrIShTena, dvitIyatastasyAgamanasamaye khrIShTasya lokaiH|
24 Then the end, when he gives up the kingdom to him [who is] God and Father; when he shall have annulled all rule and all authority and power.
tataH param anto bhaviShyati tadAnIM sa sarvvaM shAsanam adhipatitvaM parAkrama ncha luptvA svapitarIshvare rAjatvaM samarpayiShyati|
25 For he must reign until he put all enemies under his feet.
yataH khrIShTasya ripavaH sarvve yAvat tena svapAdayoradho na nipAtayiShyante tAvat tenaiva rAjatvaM karttavyaM|
26 [The] last enemy [that] is annulled [is] death.
tena vijetavyo yaH sheSharipuH sa mR^ityureva|
27 For he has put all things in subjection under his feet. But when he says that all things are put in subjection, [it is] evident that [it is] except him who put all things in subjection to him.
likhitamAste sarvvANi tasya pAdayo rvashIkR^itAni| kintu sarvvANyeva tasya vashIkR^itAnItyukte sati sarvvANi yena tasya vashIkR^itAni sa svayaM tasya vashIbhUto na jAta iti vyaktaM|
28 But when all things shall have been brought into subjection to him, then the Son also himself shall be placed in subjection to him who put all things in subjection to him, that God may be all in all.)
sarvveShu tasya vashIbhUteShu sarvvANi yena putrasya vashIkR^itAni svayaM putro. api tasya vashIbhUto bhaviShyati tata IshvaraH sarvveShu sarvva eva bhaviShyati|
29 Since what shall the baptised for the dead do if [those that are] dead rise not at all? why also are they baptised for them?
aparaM paretalokAnAM vinimayena ye majjyante taiH kiM lapsyate? yeShAM paretalokAnAm utthitiH kenApi prakAreNa na bhaviShyati teShAM vinimayena kuto majjanamapi taira NgIkriyate?
30 Why do we also endanger ourselves every hour?
vayamapi kutaH pratidaNDaM prANabhItim a NgIkurmmahe?
31 Daily I die, by your boasting which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.
asmatprabhunA yIshukhrIShTena yuShmatto mama yA shlAghAste tasyAH shapathaM kR^itvA kathayAmi dine dine. ahaM mR^ityuM gachChAmi|
32 If, [to speak] after the manner of man, I have fought with beasts in Ephesus, what is the profit to me if [those that are] dead do not rise? let us eat and drink; for to-morrow we die.
iphiShanagare vanyapashubhiH sArddhaM yadi laukikabhAvAt mayA yuddhaM kR^itaM tarhi tena mama ko lAbhaH? mR^itAnAm utthiti ryadi na bhavet tarhi, kurmmo bhojanapAne. adya shvastu mR^ityu rbhaviShyati|
33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
ityanena dharmmAt mA bhraMshadhvaM| kusaMsargeNa lokAnAM sadAchAro vinashyati|
34 Awake up righteously, and sin not; for some are ignorant of God: I speak to you as a matter of shame.
yUyaM yathochitaM sachaitanyAstiShThata, pApaM mA kurudhvaM, yato yuShmAkaM madhya IshvarIyaj nAnahInAH ke. api vidyante yuShmAkaM trapAyai mayedaM gadyate|
35 But some one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what body do they come?
aparaM mR^italokAH katham utthAsyanti? kIdR^ishaM vA sharIraM labdhvA punareShyantIti vAkyaM kashchit prakShyati|
36 Fool; what thou sowest is not quickened unless it die.
he aj na tvayA yad bIjam upyate tad yadi na mriyeta tarhi na jIvayiShyate|
37 And what thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but a bare grain: it may be of wheat, or some one of the rest:
yayA mUrttyA nirgantavyaM sA tvayA nopyate kintu shuShkaM bIjameva; tachcha godhUmAdInAM kimapi bIjaM bhavituM shaknoti|
38 and God gives to it a body as he has pleased, and to each of the seeds its own body.
IshvareNeva yathAbhilAShaM tasmai mUrtti rdIyate, ekaikasmai bIjAya svA svA mUrttireva dIyate|
39 Every flesh [is] not the same flesh, but one [is] of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another [flesh] of birds, and another of fishes.
sarvvANi palalAni naikavidhAni santi, manuShyapashupakShimatsyAdInAM bhinnarUpANi palalAni santi|
40 And [there are] heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies: but different is the glory of the heavenly, different that of the earthly:
aparaM svargIyA mUrttayaH pArthivA mUrttayashcha vidyante kintu svargIyAnAm ekarUpaM tejaH pArthivAnA ncha tadanyarUpaM tejo. asti|
41 one [the] sun's glory, and another [the] moon's glory, and another [the] stars' glory; for star differs from star in glory.
sUryyasya teja ekavidhaM chandrasya tejastadanyavidhaM tArANA ncha tejo. anyavidhaM, tArANAM madhye. api tejasastAratamyaM vidyate|
42 Thus also [is] the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruptibility.
tatra likhitamAste yathA, ‘AdipuruSha Adam jIvatprANI babhUva, ` kintvantima Adam (khrIShTo) jIvanadAyaka AtmA babhUva|
43 It is sown in dishonour, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.
yad upyate tat tuchChaM yachchotthAsyati tad gauravAnvitaM; yad upyate tannirbbalaM yachchotthAsyati tat shaktiyuktaM|
44 It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body: if there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual [one].
yat sharIram upyate tat prANAnAM sadma, yachcha sharIram utthAsyati tad AtmanaH sadma| prANasadmasvarUpaM sharIraM vidyate, AtmasadmasvarUpamapi sharIraM vidyate|
45 Thus also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul; the last Adam a quickening spirit.
tatra likhitamAste yathA, AdipuruSha Adam jIvatprANI babhUva, kintvantima Adam (khrIShTo) jIvanadAyaka AtmA babhUva|
46 But that which is spiritual [was] not first, but that which is natural, then that which is spiritual:
Atmasadma na prathamaM kintu prANasadmaiva tatpashchAd Atmasadma|
47 the first man out of [the] earth, made of dust; the second man, out of heaven.
AdyaH puruShe mR^ida utpannatvAt mR^iNmayo dvitIyashcha puruShaH svargAd AgataH prabhuH|
48 Such as he made of dust, such also those made of dust; and such as the heavenly [one], such also the heavenly [ones].
mR^iNmayo yAdR^isha AsIt mR^iNmayAH sarvve tAdR^ishA bhavanti svargIyashcha yAdR^isho. asti svargIyAH sarvve tAdR^ishA bhavanti|
49 And as we have borne the image of the [one] made of dust, we shall bear also the image of the heavenly [one].
mR^iNmayasya rUpaM yadvad asmAbhi rdhAritaM tadvat svargIyasya rUpamapi dhArayiShyate|
50 But this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit God's kingdom, nor does corruption inherit incorruptibility.
he bhrAtaraH, yuShmAn prati vyAharAmi, Ishvarasya rAjye raktamAMsayoradhikAro bhavituM na shaknoti, akShayatve cha kShayasyAdhikAro na bhaviShyati|
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all fall asleep, but we shall all be changed,
pashyatAhaM yuShmabhyaM nigUDhAM kathAM nivedayAmi|
52 in an instant, in [the] twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
sarvvairasmAbhi rmahAnidrA na gamiShyate kintvantimadine tUryyAM vAditAyAm ekasmin vipale nimiShaikamadhye sarvvai rUpAntaraM gamiShyate, yatastUrI vAdiShyate, mR^italokAshchAkShayIbhUtA utthAsyanti vaya ncha rUpAntaraM gamiShyAmaH|
53 For this corruptible must needs put on incorruptibility, and this mortal put on immortality.
yataH kShayaNIyenaitena sharIreNAkShayatvaM parihitavyaM, maraNAdhInenaitena dehena chAmaratvaM parihitavyaM|
54 But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruptibility, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the word written: Death has been swallowed up in victory.

56 Now the sting of death [is] sin, and the power of sin the law;
mR^ityoH kaNTakaM pApameva pApasya cha balaM vyavasthA|
57 but thanks to God, who gives us the victory by our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ishvarashcha dhanyo bhavatu yataH so. asmAkaM prabhunA yIshukhrIShTenAsmAn jayayuktAn vidhApayati|
58 So then, my beloved brethren, be firm, immovable, abounding always in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in [the] Lord.
