We the living who survive to the presence of the Lord will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep in death; because the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call,... and those who are dead in union with Christ will rise first.
خود از آسمان پایین خواهد آمد .‏ آنگاه نخست آنانی که در اتحاد با مسیح مرده‌اند ،‏ رستاخیز خواهند یافت .‏
