GR Γνωρίζω δὲ ὑμῖν, ἀδελφοί, τὸ εὐαγγέλιον ὃ εὐηγγελισάμην ὑμῖν, ὃ καὶ παρελάβετε, ἐν ᾧ καὶ ἑστήκατε,
LA Notum autem vobis facio, fratres, Evangelium, quod prædicavi vobis, quod et accepistis, in quo et statis,
EN Now I make known unto you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received and wherein you stand.
^1
2
GR δι’ οὗ καὶ σῴζεσθε, τίνι λόγῳ εὐηγγελισάμην ὑμῖν εἰ κατέχετε, ἐκτὸς εἰ μὴ εἰκῇ ἐπιστεύσατε.
LA per quod et salvamini: qua ratione prædicaverim vobis, si tenetis, nisi frustra credidistis.
EN By which also you are saved, if you hold fast after what manner I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain.
^2
3
GR παρέδωκα γὰρ ὑμῖν ἐν πρώτοις, ὃ καὶ παρέλαβον, ὅτι Χριστὸς ἀπέθανεν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ἡμῶν κατὰ τὰς γραφάς,
LA Tradidi enim vobis in primis quod et accepi: quoniam Christus mortuus est pro peccatis nostris secundum Scripturas:
EN For I delivered unto you first of all, which I also received: how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures:
^3
4
GR καὶ ὅτι ἐτάφη, καὶ ὅτι ἐγήγερται τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ κατὰ τὰς γραφάς,
LA et quia sepultus est, et quia resurrexit tertia die secundum Scripturas:
EN And that he was buried: and that he rose again the third day, according to the scriptures:
^4
5
GR καὶ ὅτι ὤφθη Κηφᾷ, εἶτα τοῖς δώδεκα:
LA et quia visus est Cephæ, et post hoc undecim:
EN And that he was seen by Cephas, and after that by the eleven.
^5
6
GR ἔπειτα ὤφθη ἐπάνω πεντακοσίοις ἀδελφοῖς ἐφάπαξ, ἐξ ὧν οἱ πλείονες μένουσιν ἕως ἄρτι, τινὲς δὲ ἐκοιμήθησαν:
LA deinde visus est plus quam quingentis fratribus simul: ex quibus multi manent usque adhuc, quidam autem dormierunt:
EN Then was he seen by more than five hundred brethren at once: of whom many remain until this present, and some are fallen asleep.
^6
7
GR ἔπειτα ὤφθη Ἰακώβῳ, εἶτα τοῖς ἀποστόλοις πᾶσιν:
LA deinde visus est Jacobo, deinde Apostolis omnibus:
EN After that, he was seen by James: then by all the apostles.
^7
8
GR ἔσχατον δὲ πάντων ὡσπερεὶ τῷ ἐκτρώματι ὤφθη κἀμοί.
LA novissime autem omnium tamquam abortivo, visus est et mihi.
EN And last of all, he was seen also by me, as by one born out of due time.
^8
9
GR ἐγὼ γάρ εἰμι ὁ ἐλάχιστος τῶν ἀποστόλων, ὃς οὐκ εἰμὶ ἱκανὸς καλεῖσθαι ἀπόστολος, διότι ἐδίωξα τὴν ἐκκλησίαν τοῦ θεοῦ:
LA Ego enim sum minimus Apostolorum, qui non sum dignus vocari Apostolus, quoniam persecutus sum ecclesiam Dei.
EN For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
^9
10
GR χάριτι δὲ θεοῦ εἰμι ὅ εἰμι, καὶ ἡ χάρις αὐτοῦ ἡ εἰς ἐμὲ οὐ κενὴ ἐγενήθη, ἀλλὰ περισσότερον αὐτῶν πάντων ἐκοπίασα, οὐκ ἐγὼ δὲ ἀλλὰ ἡ χάρις τοῦ θεοῦ σὺν ἐμοί.
LA Gratia autem Dei sum id quod sum, et gratia ejus in me vacua non fuit, sed abundantius illis omnibus laboravi: non ego autem, sed gratia Dei mecum:
EN But by the grace of God, I am what I am. And his grace in me has not been void: but I have laboured more abundantly than all they. Yet not I, but the grace of God with me:
^10
11
GR εἴτε οὖν ἐγὼ εἴτε ἐκεῖνοι, οὕτως κηρύσσομεν καὶ οὕτως ἐπιστεύσατε.
LA sive enim ego, sive illi: sic prædicamus, et sic credidistis.
EN For whether I or they, so we preach: and so you have believed.
^11
12
GR Εἰ δὲ Χριστὸς κηρύσσεται ὅτι ἐκ νεκρῶν ἐγήγερται, πῶς λέγουσιν ἐν ὑμῖν τινες ὅτι ἀνάστασις νεκρῶν οὐκ ἔστιν;
LA Si autem Christus prædicatur quod resurrexit a mortuis, quomodo quidam dicunt in vobis, quoniam resurrectio mortuorum non est?
EN Now if Christ be preached, that he arose again from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
^12
13
GR εἰ δὲ ἀνάστασις νεκρῶν οὐκ ἔστιν, οὐδὲ Χριστὸς ἐγήγερται:
LA Si autem resurrectio mortuorum non est: neque Christus resurrexit.
EN But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen again.
^13
14
GR εἰ δὲ Χριστὸς οὐκ ἐγήγερται, κενὸν ἄρα τὸ κήρυγμα ἡμῶν, κενὴ καὶ ἡ πίστις ἡμῶν,
LA Si autem Christus non resurrexit, inanis est ergo prædicatio nostra, inanis est et fides vestra:
EN And if Christ be not risen again, then is our preaching vain: and your faith is also vain.
^14
15
GR εὑρισκόμεθα δὲ καὶ ψευδομάρτυρες τοῦ θεοῦ, ὅτι ἐμαρτυρήσαμεν κατὰ τοῦ θεοῦ ὅτι ἤγειρεν τὸν Χριστόν, ὃν οὐκ ἤγειρεν εἴπερ ἄρα νεκροὶ οὐκ ἐγείρονται.
LA invenimur autem et falsi testes Dei: quoniam testimonium diximus adversus Deum quod suscitaverit Christum, quem non suscitavit, si mortui non resurgunt.
EN Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God: because we have given testimony against God, that he has raised up Christ, whom he has not raised up, if the dead rise not again.
^15
16
GR εἰ γὰρ νεκροὶ οὐκ ἐγείρονται, οὐδὲ Χριστὸς ἐγήγερται:
LA Nam si mortui non resurgunt, neque Christus resurrexit.
EN For if the dead rise not again, neither is Christ risen again.
^16
17
GR εἰ δὲ Χριστὸς οὐκ ἐγήγερται, ματαία ἡ πίστις ὑμῶν, [ἐστίν], ἔτι ἐστὲ ἐν ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ὑμῶν.
LA Quod si Christus non resurrexit, vana est fides vestra: adhuc enim estis in peccatis vestris.
EN And if Christ be not risen again, your faith is vain: for you are yet in your sins.
^17
18
GR ἄρα καὶ οἱ κοιμηθέντες ἐν Χριστῷ ἀπώλοντο.
LA Ergo et qui dormierunt in Christo, perierunt.
EN Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.
^18
19
GR εἰ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ ταύτῃ ἐν Χριστῷ ἠλπικότες ἐσμὲν μόνον, ἐλεεινότεροι πάντων ἀνθρώπων ἐσμέν.
LA Si in hac vita tantum in Christo sperantes sumus, miserabiliores sumus omnibus hominibus.
EN If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
^19
20
GR Νυνὶ δὲ Χριστὸς ἐγήγερται ἐκ νεκρῶν, ἀπαρχὴ τῶν κεκοιμημένων.
LA Nunc autem Christus resurrexit a mortuis primitiæ dormientium,
EN But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruits of them that sleep:
^20
21
GR ἐπειδὴ γὰρ δι’ ἀνθρώπου θάνατος, καὶ δι’ ἀνθρώπου ἀνάστασις νεκρῶν:
LA quoniam quidem per hominem mors, et per hominem resurrectio mortuorum.
EN For by a man came death: and by a man the resurrection of the dead.
^21
22
GR ὥσπερ γὰρ ἐν τῷ Ἀδὰμ πάντες ἀποθνῄσκουσιν, οὕτως καὶ ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ πάντες ζῳοποιηθήσονται.
LA Et sicut in Adam omnes moriuntur, ita et in Christo omnes vivificabuntur.
EN And as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all shall be made alive.
^22
23
GR ἕκαστος δὲ ἐν τῷ ἰδίῳ τάγματι: ἀπαρχὴ Χριστός, ἔπειτα οἱ τοῦ Χριστοῦ ἐν τῇ παρουσίᾳ αὐτοῦ,
LA Unusquisque autem in suo ordine, primitiæ Christus: deinde ii qui sunt Christi, qui in adventu ejus crediderunt.
EN But every one in his own order: the firstfruits, Christ: then they that are of Christ, who have believed in his coming.
^23
24
GR εἶτα τὸ τέλος, ὅταν παραδιδῷ τὴν βασιλείαν τῷ θεῷ καὶ πατρί, ὅταν καταργήσῃ πᾶσαν ἀρχὴν καὶ πᾶσαν ἐξουσίαν καὶ δύναμιν.
LA Deinde finis: cum tradiderit regnum Deo et Patri, cum evacuaverit omnem principatum, et potestatem, et virtutem.
EN Afterwards the end: when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God and the Father: when he shall have brought to nought all principality and power and virtue.
^24
25
GR δεῖ γὰρ αὐτὸν βασιλεύειν ἄχρι οὗ θῇ πάντας τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ὑπὸ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ.
LA Oportet autem illum regnare donec ponat omnes inimicos sub pedibus ejus.
EN For he must reign, until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
^25
26
GR ἔσχατος ἐχθρὸς καταργεῖται ὁ θάνατος:
LA Novissima autem inimica destruetur mors: omnia enim subjecit pedibus ejus. Cum autem dicat:
EN And the enemy, death, shall be destroyed last: For he has put all things under his feet. And whereas he says:
^26
27
GR πάντα γὰρ ὑπέταξεν ὑπὸ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ. ὅταν δὲ εἴπῃ ὅτι πάντα ὑποτέτακται, δῆλον ὅτι ἐκτὸς τοῦ ὑποτάξαντος αὐτῷ τὰ πάντα.
LA Omnia subjecta sunt ei, sine dubio præter eum qui subjecit ei omnia.
EN All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.
^27
28
GR ὅταν δὲ ὑποταγῇ αὐτῷ τὰ πάντα, τότε [καὶ] αὐτὸς ὁ υἱὸς ὑποταγήσεται τῷ ὑποτάξαντι αὐτῷ τὰ πάντα, ἵνα ᾖ ὁ θεὸς πάντα ἐν πᾶσιν.
LA Cum autem subjecta fuerint illi omnia: tunc et ipse Filius subjectus erit ei, qui subjecit sibi omnia, ut sit Deus omnia in omnibus.
EN And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then the Son also himself shall be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
^28
29
GR Ἐπεὶ τί ποιήσουσιν οἱ βαπτιζόμενοι ὑπὲρ τῶν νεκρῶν; εἰ ὅλως νεκροὶ οὐκ ἐγείρονται, τί καὶ βαπτίζονται ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν;
LA Alioquin quid facient qui baptizantur pro mortuis, si omnino mortui non resurgunt? ut quid et baptizantur pro illis?
EN Otherwise, what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? Why are they then baptized for them?
^29
30
GR τί καὶ ἡμεῖς κινδυνεύομεν πᾶσαν ὥραν;
LA ut quid et nos periclitamur omni hora?
EN Why also are we in danger every hour?
^30
31
GR καθ’ ἡμέραν ἀποθνῄσκω, νὴ τὴν ὑμετέραν καύχησιν, ἀδελφοί, ἣν ἔχω ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τῷ κυρίῳ ἡμῶν.
LA Quotidie morior per vestram gloriam, fratres, quam habeo in Christo Jesu Domino nostro.
EN I die daily, I protest by your glory, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.
^31
32
GR εἰ κατὰ ἄνθρωπον ἐθηριομάχησα ἐν Ἐφέσῳ, τί μοι τὸ ὄφελος; εἰ νεκροὶ οὐκ ἐγείρονται, φάγωμεν καὶ πίωμεν, αὔριον γὰρ ἀποθνῄσκομεν.
LA Si secundum hominem ad bestias pugnavi Ephesi, quid mihi prodest, si mortui non resurgunt? Manducemus, et bibamus, cras enim moriemur.
EN If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what does it profit me, if the dead rise not again? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die.
^32
[!note]- Let us eat and drink, etc…
That is, if we did not believe that we were to rise again from the dead, we might live like the impious and wicked, who have no belief in the resurrection.
33
GR μὴ πλανᾶσθε: φθείρουσιν ἤθη χρηστὰ ὁμιλίαι κακαί.
LA Nolite seduci: corrumpunt mores bonos colloquia mala.
EN Be not seduced: Evil communications corrupt good manners.
^33
34
GR ἐκνήψατε δικαίως καὶ μὴ ἁμαρτάνετε, ἀγνωσίαν γὰρ θεοῦ τινες ἔχουσιν: πρὸς ἐντροπὴν ὑμῖν λαλῶ.
LA Evigilate justi, et nolite peccare: ignorantiam enim Dei quidam habent, ad reverentiam vobis loquor.
EN Awake, you just, and sin not. For some have not the knowledge of God. I speak it to your shame.
^34
[!note]- The Son also himself shall be subject unto him…
That is, the Son will be subject to the Father, according to his human nature, even after the general resurrection; and also the whole mystical body of Christ will be entirely subject to God, obeying him in every thing.
[!note]- That are baptized for the dead…
Some think the apostle here alludes to a ceremony then in use; but others, more probably, to the prayers and penitential labours, performed by the primitive Christians for the souls of the faithful departed; or to the baptism of afflictions and sufferings undergone for sinners spiritually dead.
35
GR Ἀλλὰ ἐρεῖ τις, πῶς ἐγείρονται οἱ νεκροί; ποίῳ δὲ σώματι ἔρχονται;
LA Sed dicet aliquis: Quomodo resurgunt mortui? qualive corpore venient?
EN But some man will say: How do the dead rise again? Or with what manner of body shall they come?
^35
36
GR ἄφρων, σὺ ὃ σπείρεις οὐ ζῳοποιεῖται ἐὰν μὴ ἀποθάνῃ:
LA Insipiens, tu quod seminas non vivificatur, nisi prius moriatur:
EN Senseless man, that which you sow is not quickened, except it die first.
^36
37
GR καὶ ὃ σπείρεις, οὐ τὸ σῶμα τὸ γενησόμενον σπείρεις ἀλλὰ γυμνὸν κόκκον εἰ τύχοι σίτου ἤ τινος τῶν λοιπῶν:
LA et quod seminas, non corpus, quod futurum est, seminas, sed nudum granum, ut puta tritici, aut alicujus ceterorum.
EN And that which you sow, you sow not the body that shall be: but bare grain, as of wheat, or of some of the rest.
^37
38
GR ὁ δὲ θεὸς δίδωσιν αὐτῷ σῶμα καθὼς ἠθέλησεν, καὶ ἑκάστῳ τῶν σπερμάτων ἴδιον σῶμα.
LA Deus autem dat illi corpus sicut vult: ut unicuique seminum proprium corpus.
EN But God gives it a body as he will: and to every seed its proper body.
^38
39
GR οὐ πᾶσα σὰρξ ἡ αὐτὴ σάρξ, ἀλλὰ ἄλλη μὲν ἀνθρώπων, ἄλλη δὲ σὰρξ κτηνῶν, ἄλλη δὲ σὰρξ πτηνῶν, ἄλλη δὲ ἰχθύων.
LA Non omnis caro, eadem caro: sed alia quidem hominum, alia vero pecorum, alia volucrum, alia autem piscium.
EN All flesh is not the same flesh: but one is the flesh of men, another of beasts, other of birds, another of fishes.
^39
40
GR καὶ σώματα ἐπουράνια, καὶ σώματα ἐπίγεια: ἀλλὰ ἑτέρα μὲν ἡ τῶν ἐπουρανίων δόξα, ἑτέρα δὲ ἡ τῶν ἐπιγείων.
LA Et corpora cælestia, et corpora terrestria: sed alia quidem cælestium gloria, alia autem terrestrium.
EN And there are bodies celestial and bodies terrestrial: but, one is the glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial.
^40
41
GR ἄλλη δόξα ἡλίου, καὶ ἄλλη δόξα σελήνης, καὶ ἄλλη δόξα ἀστέρων: ἀστὴρ γὰρ ἀστέρος διαφέρει ἐν δόξῃ.
LA Alia claritas solis, alia claritas lunæ, et alia claritas stellarum. Stella enim a stella differt in claritate:
EN One is the glory of the sun, another the glory of the moon, and another the glory of the stars. For star differs from star in glory.
^41
42
GR οὕτως καὶ ἡ ἀνάστασις τῶν νεκρῶν. σπείρεται ἐν φθορᾷ, ἐγείρεται ἐν ἀφθαρσίᾳ:
LA sic et resurrectio mortuorum. Seminatur in corruptione, surget in incorruptione.
EN So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption: it shall rise in incorruption.
^42
43
GR σπείρεται ἐν ἀτιμίᾳ, ἐγείρεται ἐν δόξῃ: σπείρεται ἐν ἀσθενείᾳ, ἐγείρεται ἐν δυνάμει:
LA Seminatur in ignobilitate, surget in gloria: seminatur in infirmitate, surget in virtute:
EN It is sown in dishonour: it shall rise in glory. It is sown in weakness: it shall rise in power.
^43
44
GR σπείρεται σῶμα ψυχικόν, ἐγείρεται σῶμα πνευματικόν. εἰ ἔστιν σῶμα ψυχικόν, ἔστιν καὶ πνευματικόν.
LA seminatur corpus animale, surget corpus spiritale. Si est corpus animale, est et spiritale, sicut scriptum est:
EN It is sown a natural body: it shall rise a spiritual body. If there be a natural body, there is also a spiritual body, as it is written:
^44
45
GR οὕτως καὶ γέγραπται, ἐγένετο ὁ πρῶτος ἄνθρωπος Ἀδὰμ εἰς ψυχὴν ζῶσαν: ὁ ἔσχατος Ἀδὰμ εἰς πνεῦμα ζῳοποιοῦν.
LA Factus est primus homo Adam in animam viventem, novissimus Adam in spiritum vivificantem.
EN The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.
^45
46
GR ἀλλ’ οὐ πρῶτον τὸ πνευματικὸν ἀλλὰ τὸ ψυχικόν, ἔπειτα τὸ πνευματικόν.
LA Sed non prius quod spiritale est, sed quod animale: deinde quod spiritale.
EN Yet that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural: afterwards that which is spiritual.
^46
47
GR ὁ πρῶτος ἄνθρωπος ἐκ γῆς χοϊκός, ὁ δεύτερος ἄνθρωπος ἐξ οὐρανοῦ.
LA Primus homo de terra, terrenus: secundus homo de cælo, cælestis.
EN The first man was of the earth, earthly: the second man, from heaven, heavenly.
^47
48
GR οἷος ὁ χοϊκός, τοιοῦτοι καὶ οἱ χοϊκοί, καὶ οἷος ὁ ἐπουράνιος, τοιοῦτοι καὶ οἱ ἐπουράνιοι:
LA Qualis terrenus, tales et terreni: et qualis cælestis, tales et cælestes.
EN Such as is the earthly, such also are the earthly: and such as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.
^48
49
GR καὶ καθὼς ἐφορέσαμεν τὴν εἰκόνα τοῦ χοϊκοῦ, φορέσωμεν καὶ τὴν εἰκόνα τοῦ ἐπουρανίου.
LA Igitur, sicut portavimus imaginem terreni, portemus et imaginem cælestis.
EN Therefore, as we have borne the image of the earthly, let us bear also the image of the heavenly.
^49
50
GR Τοῦτο δέ φημι, ἀδελφοί, ὅτι σὰρξ καὶ αἷμα βασιλείαν θεοῦ κληρονομῆσαι οὐ δύναται, οὐδὲ ἡ φθορὰ τὴν ἀφθαρσίαν κληρονομεῖ.
LA Hoc autem dico, fratres: quia caro et sanguis regnum Dei possidere non possunt: neque corruptio incorruptelam possidebit.
EN Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.
^50
51
GR ἰδοὺ μυστήριον ὑμῖν λέγω: πάντες οὐ κοιμηθησόμεθα, πάντες δὲ ἀλλαγησόμεθα,
LA Ecce mysterium vobis dico: omnes quidem resurgemus, sed non omnes immutabimur.
EN Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.
^51
52
GR ἐν ἀτόμῳ, ἐν ῥιπῇ ὀφθαλμοῦ, ἐν τῇ ἐσχάτῃ σάλπιγγι: σαλπίσει γάρ, καὶ οἱ νεκροὶ ἐγερθήσονται ἄφθαρτοι, καὶ ἡμεῖς ἀλλαγησόμεθα.
LA In momento, in ictu oculi, in novissima tuba: canet enim tuba, et mortui resurgent incorrupti: et nos immutabimur.
EN In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall rise again incorruptible. And we shall be changed.
^52
53
GR δεῖ γὰρ τὸ φθαρτὸν τοῦτο ἐνδύσασθαι ἀφθαρσίαν καὶ τὸ θνητὸν τοῦτο ἐνδύσασθαι ἀθανασίαν.
LA Oportet enim corruptibile hoc induere incorruptionem: et mortale hoc induere immortalitatem.
EN For this corruptible must put on incorruption: and this mortal must put on immortality.
^53
54
GR ὅταν δὲ τὸ θνητὸν τοῦτο ἐνδύσηται [τὴν] ἀθανασίαν, τότε γενήσεται ὁ λόγος ὁ γεγραμμένος, κατεπόθη ὁ θάνατος εἰς νῖκος.
LA Cum autem mortale hoc induerit immortalitatem, tunc fiet sermo, qui scriptus est: Absorpta est mors in victoria.
EN And when this mortal has put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.
^54
55
GR ποῦ σου, θάνατε, τὸ νῖκος; ποῦ σου, θάνατε, τὸ κέντρον;
LA Ubi est mors victoria tua? ubi est mors stimulus tuus?
EN O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?
^55
56
GR τὸ δὲ κέντρον τοῦ θανάτου ἡ ἁμαρτία, ἡ δὲ δύναμις τῆς ἁμαρτίας ὁ νόμος.
LA Stimulus autem mortis peccatum est: virtus vero peccati lex.
EN Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.
^56
57
GR τῷ δὲ θεῷ χάρις τῷ διδόντι ἡμῖν τὸ νῖκος διὰ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
LA Deo autem gratias, qui dedit nobis victoriam per Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum.
EN But thanks be to God, who has given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
^57
58
GR ὥστε, ἀδελφοί μου ἀγαπητοί, ἑδραῖοι γίνεσθε, ἀμετακίνητοι, περισσεύοντες ἐν τῷ ἔργῳ τοῦ κυρίου πάντοτε, εἰδότες ὅτι ὁ κόπος ὑμῶν οὐκ ἔστιν κενὸς ἐν κυρίῳ.
LA Itaque fratres mei dilecti, stabiles estote, et immobiles: abundantes in opere Domini semper, scientes quod labor vester non est inanis in Domino.
EN Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast and unmoveable: always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
^58
