1 Thessalonians 4:13

I would not, brethren, have you ignorant concerning them which are fallen asleep, that ye sorrow not as others do which have no hope.

remember, I say, that ye were at that time without Christ, and were reputed aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and were strangers from the testaments of promise, and had no hope, and were without God in this world.

Ye shall not rent your flesh for any soul's sake, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.

Many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth, shall awake, some to everlasting life, some to perpetual shame and reproof.

And he kneeled down and cried with a loud voice, "Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. For they know not what they do." And when he had thus spoken he fell asleep.

I would that ye should know, brethren, how that I have oftentimes purposed to come unto you, but have been let hitherto, to have some fruit among you, as I have among other of the gentiles.

Then came all his sons and all his daughters to comfort him. And he would not be comforted, but said, "I will go down into the grave unto my son, mourning." And thus his father wept for him.

Ye are the children of the LORD your God; cut not yourselves nor make you any baldness between the eyes for any man's death.

But David saw his servants whispering and thereby perceived that the child was dead, and said unto his servants, "Is the child dead?" And they said, "Yea."

And the king was moved and went up to a chamber over the gate and wept. And as he went thus he said, "My son Absalom, my son, my son, my son Absalom, would to God I had died for thee Absalom, my son, my son."

For else when my lord the king is laid to rest with his fathers, I and my son Solomon shall be sinners."

And so David rested with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.

and said, "Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I turn thither again. The LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; now blessed be the name of the LORD."

"For I am sure that my redeemer liveth, and that I shall rise out of the earth in the latter day:

The ungodly is afraid of every peril; but the righteous hath a good hope even in death.

"Thou son of man, behold, I take away the pleasure of thine eyes with a plague: yet shalt thou neither mourn, nor weep, nor water thy cheeks therefore.

Moreover, he said unto me, "Thou son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, 'Our bones are dried up, our hope is gone, we are clean cut off.'

and the stones did rent, and graves did open, and the bodies of many saints which slept, arose:

Everybody wept and sorrowed for her. And he said, "Weep not: for she is not dead, but sleepeth."

This said he. And after that he said unto them, "Our friend Lazarus sleepeth, but I go to wake him out of sleep."

Martha said unto him, I know well, that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

Then devout men dressed Stephen, and made great lamentation over him.

Howbeit David, after he had in his time fulfilled the will of God, he slept, and was laid with his fathers, and saw corruption.

Brethren I would not that ye should be ignorant of this, how that our fathers were all under a cloud, and all passed through the sea,

In spiritual things, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

After that, he was seen of more than five hundred brethren at once: of which many remain unto this day, and many are fallen asleep.

And thereto, they which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

Brethren, I would not have you ignorant of our trouble, which happened unto us in Asia. For we were grieved out of measure passing strength, so greatly that we despaired even of life.

And this say we unto you in the word of the Lord, that we which live and are remaining in the coming of the Lord, shall not come before they which sleep.

which died for us: that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

and say, "Where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers died all things continue in the same estate wherein they were at the beginning."

Dearly beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, how that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
