Death and Resurrection

(1 Corinthians 15:50–58)

You are destroyed, O Israel,

because you are against Me —

against your helper.

10 

Where is your king now[fn]

to save you in all your cities,

and the rulers to whom you said,

“Give me a king and princes”?

11 

So in My anger I gave you a king,

and in My wrath I took [him] away.

12 

The iniquity of Ephraim [is] bound up;

his sin [is] stored up.

13 

Labor pains come upon him,

but he is vvv an unwise son.

When the time arrives,

he fails to present himself at the opening of the womb.

14 

I will ransom them from the power of Sheol;

I will redeem them from Death.[fn]

Where, O Death, are your plagues?

Where, O Sheol, is your sting?[fn]

Compassion is hidden from My eyes.
