[54] So when corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. [55] O death, where sting? where victory? [56] The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. [57] But thanks be to God, which giveth the victory through Lord Jesus Christ. [58] Therefore, beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that labour not in vain in the Lord.
