King James Version (KJV)

1 Corinthians 15:18

“Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.”

Verse in context — 1 Corinthians 15

For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

And if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye are yet in your sins.

Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

But now is Christ risen from the dead, [and] become the firstfruits of them that slept.
