1 Corinthians 15:54

The resurrection Death and loss Eternal life

⁵² in an instant, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

⁵³ For the perishable must be clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality.

When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come to pass: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

⁵⁵ “Where, O Death, is your victory? Where, O Death, is your sting?”

⁵⁶ The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
