| Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. | Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. |
| For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures. | For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures. |

| For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. | For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man. |
| For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. | For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive. |
| Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. | Don’t be deceived! “Evil companionships corrupt good morals.” |
| Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame. | Wake up righteously and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame. |
| The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. | The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. |
| But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. | But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. |
| Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. | Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord. |
