English text

I know that my Redeemer lives,
And that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth.
And though worms destroy this body,
Yet in my flesh shall I see God.
(Job 19:25-26)

For now is Christ risen from the dead,
And become the first fruits of them that slept.
(1 Corinthians 15:20)

Hallelujah!
