²⁰Nunc autem Christus resurrexit a mortuis primitiæ dormientium, ²¹quoniam quidem per hominem mors, et per hominem resurrectio mortuorum. ²²Et sicut in Adam omnes moriuntur, ita et in Christo omnes vivificabuntur. ²³Unusquisque autem in suo ordine, primitiæ Christus: deinde ii qui sunt Christi, qui in adventu ejus crediderunt.

1 Corinthians 15:19–20: If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied. But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
