But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.

But now Christ has truly come back from the dead, the first-fruits of those who are sleeping.

Αλλα τωρα ο Χριστος ανεστη εκ νεκρων, εγεινεν απαρχη των κεκοιμημενων.

But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
