我所传给你们的福音

¹弟兄们，我如今把先前所传给你们的福音告诉你们知道；这福音你们也领受了，又靠着站立得住，Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, and in which you stand firm.

²并且你们若不是徒然相信，能以持守我所传给你们的，就必因这福音得救。By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.

基督死了、埋葬了、复活了

³我当日所领受又传给你们的：第一，就是基督照圣经所说，为我们的罪死了，For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

⁴而且埋葬了；又照圣经所说，第三天复活了，that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,

复活的主向许多人显现

⁵并且显给矶法看，然后显给十二使徒看；and that He appeared to Cephas and then to the Twelve.

⁶后来一时显给五百多弟兄看，其中一大半到如今还在，却也有已经睡了的。After that, He appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.

⁷以后显给雅各看，再显给众使徒看，Then He appeared to James, then to all the apostles.

⁸末了也显给我看；我如同未到产期而生的人一般。And last of all He appeared to me also, as to one of untimely birth.

我是使徒中最小的

⁹我原是使徒中最小的，不配称为使徒，因为我从前逼迫　神的教会。For I am the least of the apostles and am unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

¹⁰然而，我今日成了何等人，是蒙　神的恩才成的，并且他所赐我的恩不是徒然的。我比众使徒格外劳苦；这原不是我，乃是　神的恩与我同在。But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace to me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

¹¹不拘是我，是众使徒，我们如此传，你们也如此信了。Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed.

若没有死人复活

¹²既传基督是从死里复活了，怎么在你们中间有人说没有死人复活的事呢？But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

¹³若没有死人复活的事，基督也就没有复活了。If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.

¹⁴若基督没有复活，我们所传的便是枉然，你们所信的也是枉然；And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is worthless, and so is your faith.

¹⁵并且明显我们是为　神妄作见证的，因我们见证　神是叫基督复活了。若死人真不复活，　神也就没有叫基督复活了。In that case, we are also exposed as false witnesses about God. For we have testified about God that He raised Christ from the dead, but He did not raise Him if in fact the dead are not raised.

¹⁶因为死人若不复活，基督也就没有复活了。For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised.

¹⁷基督若没有复活，你们的信便是徒然，你们仍在罪里。And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.

¹⁸就是在基督里睡了的人也灭亡了。Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

¹⁹我们若靠基督只在今生有指望，就算比众人更可怜。If our hope in Christ is for this life alone, we are to be pitied more than all men.

基督成了初熟的果子

²⁰但基督已经从死里复活，成为睡了之人初熟的果子。But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

²¹死既是因一人而来，死人复活也是因一人而来。For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.

²²在亚当里众人都死了；照样，在基督里众人也都要复活。For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.

²³但各人是按着自己的次序复活：初熟的果子是基督；以后，在他来的时候，是那些属基督的。But each in his own turn: Christ the firstfruits; then at His coming, those who belong to Him.

把国交与父神

²⁴再后，末期到了，那时基督既将一切执政的、掌权的、有能的都毁灭了，就把国交与父　神。Then the end will come, when He hands over the kingdom to God the Father after He has destroyed all dominion, authority, and power.

²⁵因为基督必要作王，等　神把一切仇敌都放在他的脚下。For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet.

²⁶尽末了所毁灭的仇敌就是死。The last enemy to be destroyed is death.

²⁷因为经上说：“　神叫万物都服在他的脚下。”既说万物都服了他，明显那叫万物服他的，不在其内了。For “God has put everything under His feet.” Now when it says that everything has been put under Him, this clearly does not include the One who put everything under Him.

相关经文 ›

²⁸万物既服了他，那时子也要自己服那叫万物服他的，叫　神在万物之上，为万物之主。And when all things have been subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will be made subject to Him who put all things under Him, so that God may be all in all.
