1 Now I make known unto you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received, and wherein you stand;
1 ADEMÁS os declaro, hermanos, el evangelio que os he predicado, el cual también recibisteis, en el cual también perseveráis;
2 By which also you are saved, if you hold fast after what manner I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain.
2 Por el cual asimismo, si retenéis la palabra que os he predicado, sois salvos, si no creísteis en vano.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all, which I also received: how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures:
3 Porque primeramente os he enseñado lo que asimismo recibí: Que Cristo fué muerto por nuestros pecados, conforme á las Escrituras;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day, according to the scriptures:
4 Y que fué sepultado, y que resucitó al tercer día, conforme á las Escrituras;
5 And that he was seen by Cephas; and after that by the eleven.
5 Y que apareció á Cefas, y después á los doce.
6 Then he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once: of whom many remain until this present, and some are fallen asleep.
6 Después apareció á más de quinientos hermanos juntos; de los cuales muchos viven aún, y otros son muertos.
7 After that, he was seen by James, then by all the apostles.
7 Después apareció á Jacobo; después á todos los apóstoles.
8 And last of all, he was seen also by me, as by one born out of due time.
8 Y el postrero de todos, como á un abortivo, me apareció á mí.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
9 Porque yo soy el más pequeño de los apóstoles, que no soy digno de ser llamado apóstol, porque perseguí la iglesia de Dios.
10 But by the grace of God, I am what I am; and his grace in me hath not been void, but I have laboured more abundantly than all they: yet not I, but the grace of God with me.
10 Empero por la gracia de Dios soy lo que soy: y su gracia no ha sido en vano para conmigo; antes he trabajado más que todos ellos: pero no yo, sino la gracia de Dios que fué conmigo.
11 For whether I, or they, so we preach, and so you have believed.
11 Porque, ó [sea] yo ó [sean] ellos, así predicamos, y así habéis creído.
12 Now if Christ be preached, that he arose again from the dead, how do some among you say, that there is no resurrection of the dead?
12 Y si Cristo es predicado que resucitó de los muertos, ¿cómo dicen algunos entre vosotros que no hay resurrección de muertos?
13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen again.
13 Porque si no hay resurrección de muertos, Cristo tampoco resucitó:
14 And if Christ be not risen again, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
14 Y si Cristo no resucitó, vana es entonces nuestra predicación, vana es también vuestra fe.
15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God: because we have given testimony against God, that he hath raised up Christ; whom he hath not raised up, if the dead rise not again.
15 Y aun somos hallados falsos testigos de Dios; porque hemos testificado de Dios que él haya levantado á Cristo; al cual no levantó, si en verdad los muertos no resucitan.
16 For if the dead rise not again, neither is Christ risen again.
16 Porque si los muertos no resucitan, tampoco Cristo resucitó:
17 And if Christ be not risen again, your faith is vain, for you are yet in your sins.
17 Y si Cristo no resucitó, vuestra fe es vana; aun estáis en vuestros pecados.
18 Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ, are perished.
18 Entonces también los que durmieron en Cristo son perdidos.
19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
19 Si en esta vida solamente esperamos en Cristo, los más miserables somos de todos los hombres.
20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruits of them that sleep:
20 Mas ahora Cristo ha resucitado de los muertos; primicias de los que durmieron es hecho.
21 For by a man came death, and by a man the resurrection of the dead.
21 Porque por cuanto la muerte [entró] por un hombre, también por un hombre la resurrección de los muertos.
22 And as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all shall be made alive.
22 Porque así como en Adam todos mueren, así también en Cristo todos serán vivificados.
23 But every one in his own order: the firstfruits Christ, then they that are of Christ, who have believed in his coming.
23 Mas cada uno en su orden: Cristo las primicias; luego los que son de Cristo, en su venida.
24 Afterwards the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God and the Father, when he shall have brought to nought all principality, and power, and virtue.
24 Luego el fin; cuando entregará el reino á Dios y al Padre, cuando habrá quitado todo imperio, y toda potencia y potestad.
25 For he must reign, until he hath put all his enemies under his feet.
25 Porque es menester que él reine, hasta poner á todos sus enemigos debajo de sus pies.
26 And the enemy death shall be destroyed last: For he hath put all things under his feet. And whereas he saith,
26 Y el postrer enemigo que será deshecho, será la muerte.
27 All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.
27 Porque todas las cosas sujetó debajo de sus pies. Y cuando dice: Todas las cosas son sujetadas á él, claro está exceptuado aquel que sujetó á él todas las cosas.
28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
28 Mas luego que todas las cosas le fueren sujetas, entonces también el mismo Hijo se sujetará al que le sujetó á él todas las cosas, para que Dios sea todas las cosas en todos.
29 Otherwise what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? why are they then baptized for them?
29 De otro modo, ¿qué harán los que se bautizan por los muertos, si en ninguna manera los muertos resucitan? ¿Por qué pues se bautizan por los muertos?
30 Why also are we in danger every hour?
30 ¿Y por qué nosotros peligramos á toda hora?
31 I die daily, I protest by your glory, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.
31 Sí, por la gloria que en orden á vosotros tengo en Cristo Jesús Señor nuestro, cada día muero.
32 If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die.
32 Si como hombre batallé en Efeso contra las bestias, ¿qué me aprovecha? Si los muertos no resucitan, comamos y bebamos, que mañana moriremos.
33 Be not seduced: Evil communications corrupt good manners.
33 No erréis: las malas conversaciones corrompen las buenas costumbres.
34 Awake, ye just, and sin not. For some have not the knowledge of God, I speak it to your shame.
34 Velad debidamente, y no pequéis; porque algunos no conocen á Dios: para vergüenza vuestra hablo.
35 But some man will say: How do the dead rise again? or with what manner of body shall they come?
35 Mas dirá alguno: ¿Cómo resucitarán los muertos? ¿Con qué cuerpo vendrán?
36 Senseless man, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die first.
36 Necio, lo que tú siembras no se vivifica, si no muriere [antes].
37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be; but bare grain, as of wheat, or of some of the rest.
37 Y lo que siembras, no siembras el cuerpo que ha de salir, sino el grano desnudo, acaso de trigo, ó de otro [grano]:
38 But God giveth it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body.
38 Mas Dios le da el cuerpo como quiso, y á cada simiente su propio cuerpo.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but one is the flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, another of fishes.
39 Toda carne no es la misma carne; mas una carne ciertamente es la de los hombres, y otra carne la de los animales, y otra la de los peces, y otra la de las aves.
40 And there are bodies celestial, and bodies terrestrial: but, one is the glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial.
40 Y cuerpos hay celestiales, y cuerpos terrestres; mas ciertamente una es la gloria de los celestiales, y otra la de los terrestres.
41 One is the glory of the sun, another the glory of the moon, and another the glory of the stars. For star differeth from star in glory.
41 Otra es la gloria del sol, y otra la gloria de la luna, y otra la gloria de las estrellas: porque una estrella es diferente de otra en gloria.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall rise in incorruption.
42 Así también es la resurrección de los muertos. Se siembra en corrupción, se levantará en incorrupción;
43 It is sown in dishonour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness, it shall rise in power.
43 Se siembra en vergüenza, se levantará con gloria; se siembra en flaqueza, se levantará con potencia;
44 It is sown a natural body, it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:
44 Se siembra cuerpo animal, resucitará espiritual cuerpo. Hay cuerpo animal, y hay cuerpo espiritual.
45 The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.
45 Así también está escrito: Fué hecho el primer hombre Adam en ánima viviente; el postrer Adam en espíritu vivificante.
46 Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; afterwards that which is spiritual.
46 Mas lo espiritual no es primero, sino lo animal; luego lo espiritual.
47 The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly.
47 El primer hombre, es de la tierra, terreno: el segundo hombre, [que es] el Señor, es del cielo.
48 Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.
48 Cual el terreno, tales también los terrenos; y cual el celestial, tales también los celestiales.
49 Therefore as we have borne the image of the earthly, let us bear also the image of the heavenly.
49 Y como trajimos la imagen del terreno, traeremos también la imagen del celestial.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.
50 Esto empero digo, hermanos: que la carne y la sangre no pueden heredar el reino de Dios; ni la corrupción hereda la incorrupción.
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.
51 He aquí, os digo un misterio: Todos ciertamente no dormiremos, mas todos seremos transformados,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise again incorruptible: and we shall be changed.
52 En un momento, en un abrir de ojo, á la final trompeta; porque será tocada la trompeta, y los muertos serán levantados sin corrupción, y nosotros seremos transformados.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption; and this mortal must put on immortality.
53 Porque es menester que esto corruptible sea vestido de incorrupción, y esto mortal sea vestido de inmortalidad.
54 And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.
54 Y cuando esto corruptible fuere vestido de incorrupción, y esto mortal fuere vestido de inmortalidad, entonces se efectuará la palabra que está escrita: Sorbida es la muerte con victoria.
55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?
55 ¿Dónde está, oh muerte, tu aguijón? ¿dónde, oh sepulcro, tu victoria?
56 Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.
56 Ya que el aguijón de la muerte es el pecado, y la potencia del pecado, la ley.
57 But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
57 Mas á Dios gracias, que nos da la victoria por el Señor nuestro Jesucristo.
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable; always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
58 Así que, hermanos míos amados, estad firmes y constantes, creciendo en la obra del Señor siempre, sabiendo que vuestro trabajo en el Señor no es vano.

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).
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.
