1 Corinthians 15:37–43

37

That which you sow, you don’t sow the body that will be, but a bare grain, maybe of wheat, or of some other kind.

38

But God gives it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.

39

All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.

40
Selected verse

There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that of the terrestrial.

41

There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.

42

So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown perishable; it is raised imperishable.

43

It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.
