1 Corinthians 15:36

Catholic Public Domain Version

How foolish! What you sow cannot be brought back to life, unless it first dies.

See the chapter Copy

If its roots grow old in the earth, and its trunk passes into dust,

Fools! Did not he who made what is outside, indeed also make what is inside?

But God said to him: 'Foolish one, this very night they require your soul of you. To whom, then, will those things belong, which you have prepared?'

And he said to them: "How foolish and reluctant in heart you are, to believe everything that has been spoken by the Prophets!

Amen, amen, I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies,

For, while proclaiming themselves to be wise, they became foolish.

And what you sow is not the body that will be in the future, but a bare grain, such as of wheat, or of some other grain.

And so, brothers, see to it that you walk cautiously, not like the foolish,

So then, are you willing to understand, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?
