54 But when this perishable will have put on imperishability, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come to pass the saying that is written, Death was swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O Hades, where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
57 But thanks is to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
