1 Corinthians 15:32-34
EasyEnglish Bible
32 At Ephesus city, people attacked me like wild animals and I fought against them.[a] But that would be worth nothing to me if dead people do not rise to a new life. If dead people do not live again, then we could say:
‘Tomorrow we will probably die.
So we should just eat and drink as much as we like.’[b]
33 Do not let anyone deceive you. Remember this:
‘If you become a friend of bad people, you also will live in a bad way.’
34 So start thinking properly! Stop doing wrong things! Some of you do not really know God. I am saying this to make you feel ashamed.

New International Version
32 If I fought wild beasts(A) in Ephesus(B) with no more than human hopes, what have I gained? If the dead are not raised,
33 Do not be misled:(D) “Bad company corrupts good character.”[b](E) 34 Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God(F)—I say this to your shame.(G)
