1 Corinthians 15:51 in Context — 1 Corinthians 15

49 Et de même que nous avons porté l’image du terrestre, nous porterons aussi l’image du céleste.

50 Ce que je dis, frères, c’est que la chair et le sang ne peuvent hériter le royaume de Dieu, et que la corruption n’hérite pas l’incorruptibilité.

51 Voici, je vous dis un mystère: nous ne mourrons pas tous, mais tous nous serons changés,

52 en un instant, en un clin d’œil, à la dernière trompette. La trompette sonnera, et les morts ressusciteront incorruptibles, et nous, nous serons changés.

53 Car il faut que ce corps corruptible revête l’incorruptibilité, et que ce corps mortel revête l’immortalité.
