34Awake to soberness righteously, and sin not; for some have no knowledge of God: I speak [this] to move you to shame.

35But some one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what manner of body do they come?

36Thou foolish one, that which thou thyself sowest is not quickened except it die:

37and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but a bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other kind;

38but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.

39All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one [flesh] of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes.

40There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial is another.
