+  <chapter no='1'>
+    <verse no='1'>Paul called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the  will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are  sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every  place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their's and  our's:</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from  the Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God  which is given you by Jesus Christ;</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all  utterance, and in all knowledge;</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of  our Lord Jesus Christ:</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be  blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship  of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus  Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no  divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the  same mind and in the same judgment.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by  them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among  you.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul;  and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye  baptized in the name of Paul?</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and  Gaius;</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I  know not whether I baptized any other.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel:  not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of  none effect.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish  foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,  and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the  disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this  world?</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew  not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them  that believe.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after  wisdom:</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a  stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ  the power of God, and the wisdom of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the  weakness of God is stronger than men.</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise  men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to  confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to  confound the things which are mighty;</verse>
+    <verse no='28'>And base things of the world, and things which are despised,  hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought  things that are:</verse>
+    <verse no='29'>That no flesh should glory in his presence.</verse>
+    <verse no='30'>But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto  us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him  glory in the Lord.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='2'>
+    <verse no='1'>And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with  excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of  God.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus  Christ, and him crucified.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much  trembling.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words  of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but  in the power of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not  the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come  to nought:</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden  wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they  known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard,  neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath  prepared for them that love him.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the  Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of  man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the  Spirit of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the  spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely  given to us of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's  wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual  things with spiritual.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit  of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them,  because they are spiritually discerned.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself  is judged of no man.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may  instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='3'>
+    <verse no='1'>And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual,  but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye  were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you  envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of  Apollos; are ye not carnal?</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom  ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he  that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every  man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's  husbandry, ye are God's building.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a  wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth  thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which  is Jesus Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver,  precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall  declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall  try every man's work of what sort it is.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he  shall receive a reward.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but  he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the  Spirit of God dwelleth in you?</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy;  for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to  be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it  is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that  they are vain.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are  your's;</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life,  or death, or things present, or things to come; all are your's;</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='4'>
+    <verse no='1'>Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ,  and stewards of the mysteries of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found  faithful.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged  of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified:  but he that judgeth me is the Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord  come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and  will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man  have praise of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred  to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not  to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be  puffed up for one against another.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast  thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why  dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings  without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign  with you.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as  it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world,  and to angels, and to men.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ;  we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and  are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace;</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we  bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the  world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved  sons I warn you.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet  have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you  through the gospel.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my  beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into  remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in  every church.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will  know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love,  and in the spirit of meekness?</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='5'>
+    <verse no='1'>It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you,  and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles,  that one should have his father's wife.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he  that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have  judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so  done this deed,</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered  together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the  flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven  leaveneth the whole lump?</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new  lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed  for us:</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven,  neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the  unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with  fornicators:</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or  with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye  needs go out of the world.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any  man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an  idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an  one no not to eat.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>For what have I to do to judge them also that are without?  do not ye judge them that are within?</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away  from among yourselves that wicked person.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='6'>
+    <verse no='1'>Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law  before the unjust, and not before the saints?</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if  the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest  matters?</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things  that pertain to this life?</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life,  set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise  man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his  brethren?</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the  unbelievers.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye  go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye  not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the  kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters,  nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor  extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are  sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by  the Spirit of our God.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not  expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought  under the power of any.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall  destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for  the Lord; and the Lord for the body.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up  us by his own power.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ?  shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of  an harlot? God forbid.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is  one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the  body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy  Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in  your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='7'>
+    <verse no='1'>Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is  good for a man not to touch a woman.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his  own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and  likewise also the wife unto the husband.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband:  and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the  wife.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for  a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come  together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every  man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another  after that.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for  them if they abide even as I.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better  to marry than to burn.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let  not the wife depart from her husband:</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried or be  reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a  wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him  not put her away.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and  if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and  the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your  children unclean; but now are they holy.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or  a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to  peace.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy  husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath  called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become  uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be  circumcised.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but  the keeping of the commandments of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was  called.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if  thou mayest be made free, use it rather.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the  Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is  Christ's servant.</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide  with God.</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord:  yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to  be faithful.</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>I suppose therefore that this is good for the present  distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou  loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.</verse>
+    <verse no='28'>But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin  marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the  flesh: but I spare you.</verse>
+    <verse no='29'>But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth,  that both they that have wives be as though they had none;</verse>
+    <verse no='30'>And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that  rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they  possessed not;</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the  fashion of this world passeth away.</verse>
+    <verse no='32'>But I would have you without carefulness. He that is  unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may  please the Lord:</verse>
+    <verse no='33'>But he that is married careth for the things that are of the  world, how he may please his wife.</verse>
+    <verse no='34'>There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The  unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy  both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the  things of the world, how she may please her husband.</verse>
+    <verse no='35'>And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a  snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend  upon the Lord without distraction.</verse>
+    <verse no='36'>But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely  toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so  require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.</verse>
+    <verse no='37'>Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having  no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in  his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.</verse>
+    <verse no='38'>So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he  that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.</verse>
+    <verse no='39'>The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth;  but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she  will; only in the Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='40'>But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I  think also that I have the Spirit of God.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='8'>
+    <verse no='1'>Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we  all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth  nothing yet as he ought to know.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>But if any man love God, the same is known of him.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are  offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the  world, and that there is none other God but one.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven  or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all  things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all  things, and we by him.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some  with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered  unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat,  are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>But take heed lest by any means this liberty of your's  become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in  the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be  emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for  whom Christ died?</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their  weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no  flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='9'>
+    <verse no='1'>Am I not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus  Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to  you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Have we not power to eat and to drink?</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as  other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear  working?</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who  planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who  feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same  also?</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle  the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for  oxen?</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no  doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and  that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great  thing if we shall reap your carnal things?</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we  rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all  things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things  live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are  partakers with the altar?</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the  gospel should live of the gospel.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>But I have used none of these things: neither have I written  these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for  me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of:  for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the  gospel!</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if  against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the  gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse  not my power in the gospel.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself  servant unto all, that I might gain the more.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the  Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might  gain them that are under the law;</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>To them that are without law, as without law, (being not  without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain  them that are without law.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I  am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be  partaker thereof with you.</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one  receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in  all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an  incorruptible.</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as  one that beateth the air:</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest  that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a  castaway.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='10'>
+    <verse no='1'>Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant,  how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through  the sea;</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the  sea;</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>And did all eat the same spiritual meat;</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank  of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they  were overthrown in the wilderness.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should  not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is  written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them  committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted,  and were destroyed of serpents.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were  destroyed of the destroyer.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and  they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world  are come.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest  he fall.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to  man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above  that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to  escape, that ye may be able to bear it.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion  of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the  communion of the body of Christ?</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are  all partakers of that one bread.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the  sacrifices partakers of the altar?</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which  is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice,  they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye  should have fellowship with devils.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils:  ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>All things are lawful for me, but all things are not  expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth.</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no  question for conscience sake:</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye  be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no  question for conscience sake.</verse>
+    <verse no='28'>But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice  unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience  sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof:</verse>
+    <verse no='29'>Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why  is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?</verse>

+    <verse no='32'>Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles,  nor to the church of God:</verse>

+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='11'>
+    <verse no='1'>Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all  things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>But I would have you know, that the head of every man is  Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is  God.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered,  dishonoureth his head.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head  uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she  were shaven.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but  if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as  he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the  man.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for  the man.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head  because of the angels.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither  the woman without the man, in the Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by  the woman; but all things of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God  uncovered?</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have  long hair, it is a shame unto him?</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her  hair is given her for a covering.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such  custom, neither the churches of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that  ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I  hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>For there must be also heresies among you, that they which  are approved may be made manifest among you.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not  to eat the Lord's supper.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper:  and one is hungry, and another is drunken.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise  ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to  you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered  unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed  took bread:</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take,  eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance  of me.</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had  supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye,  as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do  shew the Lord's death till he come.</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup  of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the  Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='28'>But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that  bread, and drink of that cup.</verse>
+    <verse no='29'>For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and  drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.</verse>
+    <verse no='30'>For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many  sleep.</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.</verse>
+    <verse no='32'>But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that  we should not be condemned with the world.</verse>
+    <verse no='33'>Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry  one for another.</verse>
+    <verse no='34'>And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not  together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I  come.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='12'>
+    <verse no='1'>Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have  you ignorant.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb  idols, even as ye were led.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by  the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that  Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>And there are differences of administrations, but the same  Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same  God which worketh all in all.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to  profit withal.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to  another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of  healing by the same Spirit;</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to  another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to  another the interpretation of tongues:</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit,  dividing to every man severally as he will.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the  members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether  we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all  made to drink into one Spirit.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>For the body is not one member, but many.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not  of the body; is it therefore not of the body?</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not  of the body; is it therefore not of the body?</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If  the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>But now hath God set the members every one of them in the  body, as it hath pleased him.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>And if they were all one member, where were the body?</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>But now are they many members, yet but one body.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of  thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be  more feeble, are necessary:</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>And those members of the body, which we think to be less  honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely  parts have more abundant comeliness.</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the  body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which  lacked.</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>That there should be no schism in the body; but that the  members should have the same care one for another.</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with  it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.</verse>
+    <verse no='28'>And God hath set some in the church, first apostles,  secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts  of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.</verse>
+    <verse no='29'>Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are  all workers of miracles?</verse>
+    <verse no='30'>Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do  all interpret?</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you  a more excellent way.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='13'>
+    <verse no='1'>Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and  have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all  mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I  could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and  though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth  me nothing.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not;  charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not  easily provoked, thinketh no evil;</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things,  endureth all things.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they  shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there  be knowledge, it shall vanish away.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is  in part shall be done away.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a  child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away  childish things.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to  face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am  known.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the  greatest of these is charity.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='14'>
+    <verse no='1'>Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather  that ye may prophesy.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto  men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit  he speaketh mysteries.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification,  and exhortation, and comfort.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but  he that prophesieth edifieth the church.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>I would that ye all spake with tongues but rather that ye  prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh  with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive  edifying.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues,  what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by  revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or  harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be  known what is piped or harped?</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall  prepare himself to the battle?</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to  be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak  into the air.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world,  and none of them is without signification.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be  unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a  barbarian unto me.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts,  seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray  that he may interpret.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but  my understanding is unfruitful.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will  pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I  will sing with the understanding also.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he  that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of  thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not  edified.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my  understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten  thousand words in an unknown tongue.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in  malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and  other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will  they not hear me, saith the Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe,  but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that  believe not, but for them which believe.</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>If therefore the whole church be come together into one  place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are  unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth  not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so  falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in  you of a truth.</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one  of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation,  hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or  at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.</verse>
+    <verse no='28'>But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the  church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.</verse>
+    <verse no='29'>Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other  judge.</verse>
+    <verse no='30'>If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the  first hold his peace.</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and  all may be comforted.</verse>
+    <verse no='32'>And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.</verse>
+    <verse no='33'>For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in  all churches of the saints.</verse>
+    <verse no='34'>Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not  permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under  obedience as also saith the law.</verse>
+    <verse no='35'>And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their  husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.</verse>
+    <verse no='36'>What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you  only?</verse>
+    <verse no='37'>If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let  him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the  commandments of the Lord.</verse>
+    <verse no='38'>But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.</verse>
+    <verse no='39'>Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to  speak with tongues.</verse>
+    <verse no='40'>Let all things be done decently and in order.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='15'>
+    <verse no='1'>Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I  preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I  preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also  received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the  scriptures;</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day  according to the scriptures:</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at  once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are  fallen asleep.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out  of due time.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be  called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which  was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly  than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye  believed.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how  say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ  not risen:</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and  your faith is also vain.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we  have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up,  if so be that the dead rise not.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet  in your sins.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are  perished.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all  men most miserable.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the  firstfruits of them that slept.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>For since by man came death, by man came also the  resurrection of the dead.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made  alive.</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits;  afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the  kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule  and all authority and power.</verse>
+    <verse no='25'>For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his  feet.</verse>
+    <verse no='26'>The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.</verse>
+    <verse no='27'>For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith  all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which  did put all things under him.</verse>
+    <verse no='28'>And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall  the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him,  that God may be all in all.</verse>
+    <verse no='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?</verse>
+    <verse no='30'>And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our  Lord, I die daily.</verse>
+    <verse no='32'>If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at  Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and  drink; for to morrow we die.</verse>
+    <verse no='33'>Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.</verse>
+    <verse no='34'>Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the  knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.</verse>
+    <verse no='35'>But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with  what body do they come?</verse>
+    <verse no='36'>Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except  it die:</verse>
+    <verse no='37'>And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that  shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other  grain:</verse>
+    <verse no='38'>But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to  every seed his own body.</verse>
+    <verse no='39'>All 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.</verse>
+    <verse no='40'>There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but  the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is  another.</verse>
+    <verse no='41'>There 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.</verse>
+    <verse no='42'>So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in  corruption; it is raised in incorruption:</verse>
+    <verse no='43'>It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown  in weakness; it is raised in power:</verse>
+    <verse no='44'>It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body.  There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.</verse>
+    <verse no='45'>And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living  soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.</verse>
+    <verse no='46'>Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that  which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.</verse>
+    <verse no='47'>The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the  Lord from heaven.</verse>
+    <verse no='48'>As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as  is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.</verse>
+    <verse no='49'>And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also  bear the image of the heavenly.</verse>
+    <verse no='50'>Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot  inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit  incorruption.</verse>
+    <verse no='51'>Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we  shall all be changed,</verse>
+    <verse no='52'>In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump:  for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised  incorruptible, and we shall be changed.</verse>
+    <verse no='53'>For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this  mortal must put on immortality.</verse>
+    <verse no='54'>So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and  this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to  pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.</verse>
+    <verse no='55'>O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?</verse>
+    <verse no='56'>The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the  law.</verse>
+    <verse no='57'>But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through  our Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
+    <verse no='58'>Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable,  always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that  your labour is not in vain in the Lord.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='16'>
+    <verse no='1'>Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have  given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by  him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings  when I come.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your  letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through  Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you,  that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry  a while with you, if the Lord permit.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there  are many adversaries.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without  fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in  peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to  come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at  this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be  strong.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Let all your things be done with charity.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas,  that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted  themselves to the ministry of the saints,)</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that  helpeth with us, and laboureth.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and  Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>For they have refreshed my spirit and your's: therefore  acknowledge ye them that are such.</verse>
+    <verse no='19'>The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute  you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an  holy kiss.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.</verse>
+    <verse no='22'>If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be  Anathema Maranatha.</verse>
+    <verse no='23'>The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.</verse>
