1 Corinthians 15:35–44

³⁵But some man will say, ⁿHow are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? ³⁶Thou ^ofool, ^pthat which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: ³⁷And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, ^qit may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: ³⁸But God giveth it a body ^qqas it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body. ³⁹All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. ⁴⁰There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. ⁴¹There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory. ^42rSo also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in ^scorruption; it is raised in ^tincorruption: ^43uIt is sown in dishonour; it ^ris raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: ⁴⁴It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a ^wnatural body, and there is a spiritual body.
