BES Bible in Simple Spanish (2026)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Ahora, hermanos, les recuerdo el evangelio que les prediqué, el cual ustedes recibieron, en el cual también están firmes.
1 Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand,
2 Por medio de este evangelio ustedes son salvos, si retienen la palabra que les prediqué; a menos que hayan creído en vano.
2 by which also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.
3 Porque en primer lugar les entregué lo que también recibí: que Cristo murió por nuestros pecados, conforme a las Escrituras;
3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
4 que fue sepultado, y que resucitó al tercer día, conforme a las Escrituras;
4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
5 que se apareció a Cefas, y después a los doce.
5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.
6 Luego se apareció a más de quinientos hermanos a la vez, de los cuales muchos viven todavía, aunque algunos ya durmieron.
6 Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, most of whom remain until now, but some have also fallen asleep.
7 Después se apareció a Jacobo, y luego a todos los apóstoles.
7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,
8 Por último, como a uno nacido fuera de tiempo, se me apareció también a mí.
8 and last of all, as to the child born at the wrong time, he appeared to me also.
9 Porque yo soy el más pequeño de los apóstoles, y no soy digno de ser llamado apóstol, porque perseguí a la iglesia de Dios.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, who is not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the assembly of God.
10 Pero por la gracia de Dios soy lo que soy; y su gracia para conmigo no fue en vano. Al contrario, he trabajado más que todos ellos; aunque no yo, sino la gracia de Dios conmigo.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am. His grace which was given to me was not futile, but I worked more than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
11 Así que, sea yo o sean ellos, esto predicamos, y esto ustedes han creído.
11 Whether then it is I or they, so we preach, and so you believed.
12 Ahora bien, si se predica que Cristo resucitó de entre los muertos, ¿cómo dicen algunos entre ustedes que no hay resurrección de muertos?
12 Now if Christ is preached, that he has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 Si no hay resurrección de muertos, tampoco Cristo resucitó.
13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ been raised.
14 Y si Cristo no resucitó, entonces nuestra predicación es vana, y también la fe de ustedes es vana.
14 If Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith also is in vain.
15 Además, seríamos hallados falsos testigos de Dios, porque hemos dado testimonio de que Dios resucitó a Cristo, a quien no habría resucitado si en verdad los muertos no resucitan.
15 Yes, we are also found false witnesses of God, because we testified about God that he raised up Christ, whom he didn’t raise up if it is true that the dead are not raised.
16 Porque si los muertos no resucitan, tampoco Cristo resucitó.
16 For if the dead aren’t raised, neither has Christ been raised.
17 Y si Cristo no resucitó, la fe de ustedes no sirve de nada; todavía están en sus pecados.
17 If Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins.
18 Entonces también los que durmieron en Cristo se perdieron.
18 Then they also who are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
19 Si solo en esta vida tenemos esperanza en Cristo, somos los más dignos de lástima de todos los hombres.
19 If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.
20 Pero ahora Cristo ha resucitado de entre los muertos, y es primicias de los que durmieron.
20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruit of those who are asleep.
21 Porque así como por medio de un hombre vino la muerte, también por medio de un hombre vino la resurrección de los muertos.
21 For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man.
22 Porque así como en Adán todos mueren, así también en Cristo todos serán hechos vivos.
22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
23 Pero cada uno en su debido orden: Cristo, las primicias; luego los que son de Cristo, en su venida.
23 But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then those who are Christ’s at his coming.
24 Después vendrá el fin, cuando él entregue el reino al Dios y Padre, después de destruir todo dominio, toda autoridad y todo poder.
24 Then the end comes, when he will deliver up the Kingdom to God the Father, when he will have abolished all rule and all authority and power.
25 Porque es necesario que Cristo reine hasta que haya puesto a todos sus enemigos debajo de sus pies.
25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
26 El último enemigo que será destruido es la muerte.
26 The last enemy that will be abolished is death.
27 Porque Dios sujetó todas las cosas debajo de sus pies. Pero cuando dice que todas las cosas le han sido sujetadas, es claro que se exceptúa aquel que le sujetó todas las cosas.
27 For, “He put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when he says, “All things are put in subjection”, it is evident that he is excepted who subjected all things to him.
28 Y cuando todas las cosas le estén sujetas, entonces también el Hijo mismo se sujetará al que le sujetó todas las cosas, para que Dios sea todo en todos.
28 When all things have been subjected to him, then the Son will also himself be subjected to him who subjected all things to him, that God may be all in all.
29 De otro modo, ¿qué harán los que se bautizan por los muertos? Si los muertos de ninguna manera resucitan, ¿por qué se bautizan por ellos?
29 Or else what will they do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead aren’t raised at all, why then are they baptized for the dead?
30 ¿Y por qué nosotros estamos en peligro a toda hora?
30 Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?
31 Cada día muero, hermanos. Esto lo afirmo por el orgullo que tengo de ustedes en Cristo Jesús nuestro Señor.
31 I affirm, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 Si, hablando humanamente, luché contra fieras en Éfeso, ¿de qué me sirve? Si los muertos no resucitan, comamos y bebamos, porque mañana moriremos.
32 If I fought with animals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, then “let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”
33 No se dejen engañar: Las malas compañías corrompen las buenas costumbres.
33 Don’t be deceived! “Evil companionships corrupt good morals.”
34 Despierten a la justicia y no pequen; porque algunos no conocen a Dios. Para vergüenza de ustedes lo digo.
34 Wake up righteously and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.
35 Pero alguien dirá: ¿Cómo resucitan los muertos? ¿Con qué clase de cuerpo vendrán?
35 But someone will say, “How are the dead raised?” and, “With what kind of body do they come?”
36 Necio, lo que tú siembras no recibe vida si primero no muere.
36 You foolish one, that which you yourself sow is not made alive unless it dies.
37 Y lo que siembras no es el cuerpo que ha de venir, sino un simple grano, sea de trigo o de otra semilla.
37 That which you sow, you don’t sow the body that will be, but a bare grain, maybe of wheat, or of some other kind.
38 Pero Dios le da el cuerpo que él quiere, y a cada semilla le da su propio cuerpo.
38 But God gives it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.
39 No toda carne es la misma carne. Una es la carne de los hombres, otra la de los animales, otra la de los peces y otra la de las aves.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.
40 Hay cuerpos celestiales y cuerpos terrenales; pero una es la gloria de los celestiales, y otra la de los terrenales.
40 There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that of the terrestrial.
41 Una es la gloria del sol, otra la gloria de la luna, y otra la gloria de las estrellas; porque una estrella es diferente de otra en gloria.
41 There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
42 Así también es la resurrección de los muertos. Se siembra en corrupción, resucita en incorrupción.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown perishable; it is raised imperishable.
43 Se siembra en deshonra, resucita en gloria. Se siembra en debilidad, resucita en poder.
43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.
44 Se siembra cuerpo natural, resucita cuerpo espiritual. Hay cuerpo natural, y hay cuerpo espiritual.
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body and there is also a spiritual body.
45 Así también está escrito: El primer hombre, Adán, llegó a ser alma viviente; el último Adán, espíritu que da vida.
45 So also it is written, “The first man Adam became a living soul.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
46 Pero lo espiritual no es primero, sino lo natural; luego lo espiritual.
46 However, that which is spiritual isn’t first, but that which is natural, then that which is spiritual.
47 El primer hombre es de la tierra, terrenal; el segundo hombre es del cielo.
47 The first man is of the earth, made of dust. The second man is the Lord from heaven.
48 Como es el terrenal, así son también los terrenales; y como es el celestial, así serán también los celestiales.
48 As is the one made of dust, such are those who are also made of dust; and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
49 Y así como hemos llevado la imagen del terrenal, también llevaremos la imagen del celestial.
49 As we have borne the image of those made of dust, let’s also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Pero esto digo, hermanos: la carne y la sangre no pueden heredar el reino de Dios, ni la corrupción hereda la incorrupción.
50 Now I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood can’t inherit God’s Kingdom; neither does the perishable inherit imperishable.
51 Miren, les digo un misterio: no todos dormiremos, pero todos seremos transformados,
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed,
52 en un momento, en un abrir y cerrar de ojos, al sonido de la última trompeta. Porque sonará la trompeta, y los muertos resucitarán incorruptibles, y nosotros seremos transformados.
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.
53 Porque es necesario que esto corruptible se vista de incorrupción, y esto mortal se vista de inmortalidad.
53 For this perishable body must become imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 Cuando esto corruptible se vista de incorrupción, y esto mortal se vista de inmortalidad, entonces se cumplirá la palabra que está escrita: La muerte ha sido devorada en victoria.
54 But when this perishable body will have become imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”
55 ¿Dónde está, muerte, tu aguijón? ¿Dónde está, sepulcro, tu victoria?
55 “Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?”
56 El aguijón de la muerte es el pecado, y el poder del pecado es la Ley.
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
57 Pero gracias sean dadas a Dios, quien nos da la victoria por medio de nuestro Señor Jesucristo.
57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Así que, mis hermanos amados, estén firmes y constantes, creciendo siempre en la obra del Señor, sabiendo que su trabajo en el Señor no es en vano.
58 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.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 15:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on First Corinthians (Homily XXXVIII)

    Having finished the discourse of spiritual gifts, he passes to that which is of all most necessary, the subject of the resurrection. For in this too they were greatly unsound.
