← 1 Corinthians 15:31	1 Corinthians 15:32 (KJV)	1 Corinthians 15:33 →
I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.	If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.	Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
