1 Corinthians 15:29

Ἐπεὶ τί ποιήσουσιν οἱ βαπτιζόμενοι ὑπὲρ τῶν νεκρῶν; Εἰ ὅλως νεκροὶ οὐκ ἐγείρονται, τί καὶ βαπτίζονται ὑπὲρ τῶν νεκρῶν;
Epei ti poiēsoysin oi baptizomenoi yper tōn nekrōn; Ei olōs nekroi oyk egeirontai, ti kai baptizontai yper tōn nekrōn;
King James Version (KJV)

Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?

Modern English

Now if there is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them?
