29 Now if there is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them?

29 Otherwise, what do people mean by being baptized on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized on their behalf?

29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?

29 If the dead will not be raised, what point is there in people being baptized for those who are dead? Why do it unless the dead will someday rise again?

29 If the dead are never raised, what will people do who are being baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people being baptized for them?

29 Else what shall they do that are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?

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?

29 However, people are baptized because the dead ⸤will come back to life⸥. What will they do? If the dead can’t come back to life, why do people get baptized as if they can ⸤come back to life⸥? 

29 Otherwise what will they do who are being baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, then why are people baptized for them?

29 Otherwise, what will those people do who receive baptism on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized on their behalf?

29 Otherwise, why do they do it, those who are being baptized on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why indeed are they being baptized on behalf of them?

29 Suppose no one rises from the dead. Then what will people do who are baptized for the dead? Suppose the dead are not raised at all. Then why are people baptized for them?

29 Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?
