15 For this we declare to you ^eby a word from the Lord, ^{▼▼Or by the word of the Lord} that ^gwe who are alive, who are left until ^hthe coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For ⁱthe Lord himself will descend ^jfrom heaven ^kwith a cry of command, with the voice of ^lan archangel, and ^mwith the sound of the trumpet of God. And ⁿthe dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be ^ocaught up together with them ^pin the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so ^qwe will always be with the Lord.
