1 Corinthians 15:1–11

The Resurrection of Christ

¹Now ^aI make known to you, brothers, the ^bgospel which I proclaimed as good news to you, which also you received, ^cin which also you stand,

²by which also you are saved, ^aif you hold fast ¹the word which I proclaimed to you as good news, ^bunless you believed for nothing.

³For ^aI delivered to you ¹as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died ^bfor our sins ^caccording to the Scriptures,

⁴and that He was buried, and that He was ^araised on the third day ^baccording to the Scriptures,

⁵and that ^aHe appeared to ^bCephas, then ^cto the twelve.

⁶After that He appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom remain until now, but some ^ahave fallen asleep.

⁷After that, He appeared to ^1aJames, then to ^ball the apostles,

⁸and last of all, as ¹to one untimely born, ^aHe appeared to me also.

⁹For I am ^athe least of the apostles, ¹and not worthy to be called an apostle, because I ^bpersecuted the church of God.

¹⁰But by ^athe grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me did not prove vain; but I ^blabored even more than all of them, yet ^cnot I, but the grace of God with me.

¹¹Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.
