1 Corinthians 15:32

Εἰ κατὰ ἄνθρωπον ἐθηριομάχησα ἐν Ἐφέσῳ, τί μοι τὸ ὄφελος, εἰ νεκροὶ οὐκ ἐγείρονται; Φάγωμεν καὶ πίωμεν, αὔριον γὰρ ἀποθνῄσκομεν.
Ei kata anthrōpon ethēriomachēsa en Ephesō, ti moi to ophelos, ei nekroi oyk egeirontai; Phagōmen kai piōmen, ayrion gar apothnēskomen.
King James Version (KJV)

If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.

Modern English

If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus with no more than human hopes, what have I gained? If the dead are not raised, Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.
