I Coríntios 15:18-20

18 E ainda mais: os que dormiram em Cristo pereceram.

19 Se a nossa esperança em Cristo se limita apenas a esta vida, somos os mais infelizes de todos os homens.

20 Mas, de fato, Cristo ressuscitou dentre os mortos, sendo ele as primícias dos que dormem.

18 Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

19 If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.

20 But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
