FBV Free Bible Version (Versión Biblia Libre en inglés) WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos) 1 Now I want to remind you about the good news I announced to you. You accepted it, and you have stood firm for it. 1 ADEMÁS os declaro, hermanos, el evangelio que os he predicado, el cual también recibisteis, en el cual también perseveráis;
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 It is through this good news that you are saved if you hold on to the message that I gave you. Otherwise you trusted for nothing! 2 Por el cual asimismo, si retenéis la palabra que os he predicado, sois salvos, si no creísteis 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 I passed on to you what I myself had also received, a message of vital importance: that Christ died for our sins, according to Scripture; 3 Porque primeramente os he enseñado lo que asimismo recibí: Que Cristo fué muerto por nuestros pecados, conforme á 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 he was buried and was raised from the dead on the third day, again in accordance with Scripture. 4 Y que fué sepultado, y que resucitó al tercer día, conforme á las Escrituras;
4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
5 He appeared to Peter, then to the Twelve. 5 Y que apareció á Cefas, y después á los doce.
5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.
6 After that he appeared to more than five hundred brothers and sisters at the same time, most of whom are still alive today, though some have died. 6 Después apareció á más de quinientos hermanos juntos; de los cuales muchos viven aún, y otros son muertos.
6 Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, most of whom remain until now, but some have also fallen asleep.
7 He appeared to James, then all the apostles. 7 Después apareció á Jacobo; después á todos los apóstoles.
7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,
8 Last of all, he also appeared to me, someone born as it were at the wrong time. 8 Y el postrero de todos, como á un abortivo, me apareció á mí.
8 and last of all, as to the child born at the wrong time, he appeared to me also.
9 For I'm the least important apostle of all, not even fit to be called an apostle since I persecuted God's church. 9 Porque yo soy el más pequeño de los apóstoles, que no soy digno de ser llamado apóstol, porque perseguí 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 But by God's grace I am what I am, and his grace given to me wasn't wasted. On the contrary I've worked harder than all of them—though not me, but God's grace working through 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.
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 So whether it's I or they, this is the message we shared with you that brought you to trust in God. 11 Porque, ó [sea] yo ó [sean] ellos, así predicamos, y así habéis creído.
11 Whether then it is I or they, so we preach, and so you believed.
12 Now if the message declares that Christ has been raised from the dead, how is it that some of you say there's 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?
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 If there's no resurrection of the dead then Christ hasn't been raised either. 13 Porque si no hay resurrección de muertos, Cristo tampoco resucitó:
13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ been raised.
14 And if Christ isn't raised, then our message we shared with you is pointless, and your trust in God is pointless too. 14 Y si Cristo no resucitó, vana es entonces nuestra predicación, vana es también vuestra fe.
14 If Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith also is in vain.
15 In addition, we would be shown to be false witnesses of God when we testified that God raised Christ from the dead. But God didn't raise Christ from the dead if it's true that there's no resurrection. 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.
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 If the dead are not raised, then Christ hasn't been raised either, 16 Porque si los muertos no resucitan, tampoco Cristo resucitó:
16 For if the dead aren’t raised, neither has Christ been raised.
17 and if Christ hasn't been raised, then your trust in God is useless, and you are still in your sins. 17 Y si Cristo no resucitó, vuestra fe es vana; aun estáis en vuestros pecados.
17 If Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins.
18 This also means that those who died in Christ are lost. 18 Entonces también los que durmieron en Cristo son perdidos.
18 Then they also who are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
19 If our hope in Christ is only for this life, we're the most pitiful people of all! 19 Si en esta vida solamente esperamos en Cristo, los más miserables somos de todos los hombres.
19 If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.
20 But Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of the harvest from those who have died. 20 Mas ahora Cristo ha resucitado de los muertos; primicias de los que durmieron es hecho.
20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruit of those who are asleep.
21 Just as death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead came through a man. 21 Porque por cuanto la muerte [entró] por un hombre, también por un hombre la resurrección de los muertos.
21 For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man.
22 Just as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. 22 Porque así como en Adam todos mueren, así también en Cristo todos serán vivificados.
22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
23 But each in their own turn: Christ the firstfruits, then those who belong to Christ when he comes. 23 Mas cada uno en su 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 After this comes the end, when Christ hands over the kingdom to God the Father, having destroyed all rulers, authorities, and powers. 24 Luego el fin; cuando entregará el reino á Dios y al Padre, cuando habrá quitado todo imperio, y toda potencia y potestad.
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 Christ has to rule until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 25 Porque es menester que él reine, hasta poner á todos sus enemigos debajo de sus pies.
25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy that will be destroyed is death. 26 Y el postrer enemigo que será deshecho, será la muerte.
26 The last enemy that will be abolished is death.
27 As Scripture says, “He put everything under his feet.” (Of course when it says “everything” is put under him it's obvious this doesn't refer to God who placed everything under Christ's authority.) 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.
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 When everything has been placed under Christ's authority, then the Son will also place himself under God's authority, so that God who gave the Son authority over everything 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.
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 Otherwise what will those people do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then would people be 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?
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 As for us, why do we place ourselves in danger hour after hour? 30 ¿Y por qué nosotros peligramos á toda hora?
30 Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?
31 I die every day—let me say it bluntly, my brothers and sisters. This is just as sure as the pride I have for what Christ Jesus has done in you. 31 Sí, por la gloria que en orden á vosotros tengo en Cristo Jesús Señor nuestro, cada día muero.
31 I affirm, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 Humanly speaking, what would I gain by fighting with those people in Ephesus who were like wild animals, if the dead are not raised? If the dead are not raised, “let's eat and drink, for tomorrow we 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.
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 Don't be fooled: “Bad company ruins good character.” 33 No erréis: las malas conversaciones corrompen las buenas costumbres.
33 Don’t be deceived! “Evil companionships corrupt good morals.”
34 Come to your senses as you should, and stop sinning! Some of you don't know God. I tell you this to shame you. 34 Velad debidamente, y no pequéis; porque algunos no conocen á Dios: para vergüenza vuestra hablo.
34 Wake up righteously and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.
35 Of course somebody will ask, “How exactly are the dead raised? What kind of body will they have?” 35 Mas dirá alguno: ¿Cómo resucitarán los muertos? ¿Con qué cuerpo vendrán?
35 But someone will say, “How are the dead raised?” and, “With what kind of body do they come?”
36 What a foolish question! What you sow doesn't sprout into life unless it dies. 36 Necio, lo que tú siembras no se vivifica, si no muriere [antes].
36 You foolish one, that which you yourself sow is not made alive unless it dies.
37 When you sow, you don't sow the plant it will grow into, just the bare seed, whether wheat or whatever you're planting. 37 Y lo que siembras, no siembras el cuerpo que ha de salir, sino el grano desnudo, acaso de trigo, ó de otro [grano]:
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 God makes the plant grow into the form he has chosen, and different seeds produce different plants with different forms. 38 Mas Dios le da el cuerpo como quiso, y á cada simiente 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 What living things are made from is not the same. Human beings have one kind of body tissue, while animals have another, birds another, and fish another. 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.
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 There are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. Heavenly bodies have one kind of beauty, earthly bodies another. 40 Y cuerpos hay celestiales, y cuerpos terrestres; mas ciertamente una es la gloria de los celestiales, y otra la de los terrestres.
40 There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that of the terrestrial.
41 The sun shines in one way, and the moon another, while the stars are different again, with each one shining in a different way. 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.
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 It's the same with the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in decay; it is raised to last forever. 42 Así también es la resurrección de los muertos. Se siembra en corrupción, se levantará en incorrupción;
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown perishable; it is raised imperishable.
43 It is sown in shame; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power. 43 Se siembra en vergüenza, se levantará con gloria; se siembra en flaqueza, se levantará con potencia;
43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.
44 It is sown as a natural body; it is raised as a spiritual body. Just as there are natural bodies there are spiritual bodies. 44 Se siembra cuerpo animal, resucitará espiritual cuerpo. Hay cuerpo animal, 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 As Scripture says, “The first man, Adam, became a living being”; but the last Adam a life-giving spirit. 45 Así también está escrito: Fué hecho el primer hombre Adam en ánima viviente; el postrer Adam en espíritu vivificante.
45 So also it is written, “The first man Adam became a living soul.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
46 The spiritual did not come first, but the natural—the spiritual came after that. 46 Mas lo espiritual no es primero, sino lo animal; luego lo espiritual.
46 However, that which is spiritual isn’t first, but that which is natural, then that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is from the dust of the earth; the second man is from heaven. 47 El primer hombre, es de la tierra, terreno: el segundo hombre, [que es] el Señor, es del cielo.
47 The first man is of the earth, made of dust. The second man is the Lord from heaven.
48 Earthly people are like the man made from the earth; heavenly people are like the man from heaven. 48 Cual el terreno, tales también los terrenos; y cual el celestial, tales 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 Just as we bore the likeness of the earthly man so we shall bear the likeness of the man from heaven. 49 Y como trajimos la imagen del terreno, traeremos también 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 However, I tell you this, my brothers and sisters: our present bodies cannot inherit the kingdom of God. These decaying bodies cannot inherit what lasts forever. 50 Esto empero digo, hermanos: que 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 Listen, I'm going to reveal a mystery! Not all of us will die—but we will all be changed, 51 He aquí, os digo un misterio: Todos ciertamente no dormiremos, mas todos seremos transformados,
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed,
52 in a moment, in the blink of an eye, at the sound of the last trumpet. The trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised never to die again, and we will 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.
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 For this perishable body must be clothed with a body that never perishes. This mortal life must be clothed with immortality. 53 Porque es menester que esto corruptible sea vestido de incorrupción, y esto mortal sea vestido de inmortalidad.
53 For this perishable body must become imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 When this perishable body has been clothed with a body that never perishes, and this mortal life has been clothed with immortality, then the Scripture will come true that says, “Death has been totally conquered and destroyed. 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.
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 Death—where's your victory? Death—where's your sting?” 55 ¿Dónde está, oh muerte, tu aguijón? ¿dónde, oh sepulcro, tu victoria?
55 “Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?”
56 The sting that causes 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.
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
57 but praise God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 57 Mas á Dios gracias, que nos da la victoria por el Señor nuestro Jesucristo.
57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 So my dear brothers and sisters: be strong, stand firm, doing everything you can for the Lord's work, since you know that nothing you do in the Lord is wasted. 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.
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.
