1 Corinthians 15:31-33
Complete Jewish Bible
31 Brothers, by the right to be proud which the Messiah Yeshua our Lord gives me, I solemnly tell you that I die every day. 32 If my fighting with “wild beasts” in Ephesus was done merely on a human basis, what do I gain by it? If dead people are not raised, we might as well live by the saying, “Let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”[a] 33 Don’t be fooled. “Bad company ruins good character.”

New International Version
31 I face death every day(A)—yes, just as surely as I boast about you in Christ Jesus our Lord. 32 If I fought wild beasts(B) in Ephesus(C) with no more than human hopes, what have I gained? If the dead are not raised,
33 Do not be misled:(E) “Bad company corrupts good character.”[b](F)
