ગુજરાતીકરિંથીઓને પહેલો પત્ર ૧૫:૫૬
મરણનો ડંખ તો પાપ છે; અને પાપનું સામર્થ્ય નિયમશાસ્ત્ર છે;
हिन्दी1 कुरिन्थियों १५:५६
मृत्यु का डंक पाप है; और पाप का बल व्यवस्था है।

In context

54But when this perishable body will have become imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”

55“Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?”

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

57But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
