47 I say unto you that they are His seed. "And these are they which hath published peace, That hath brought good tidings of good, That hath published salvation, That saith unto Zion, 'Thy God reigneth! '
48 "And, O how beautiful upon the mountains were their feet!
49 "And again, how beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of those that art still publishing peace!
50 "And again, how beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of those who shall hereafter publish peace, Yea, from this time henceforth and forever!
51 "And behold, I say unto you, this is not all - For O how beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of Him that bringeth good tidings, that is, the founder of peace!
52 Yea, even the Lord who hath redeemed His people, Yea, Him who hath granted salvation unto His people;
53 For were it not for the redemption which He hath made for His people, which was prepared from the foundation of the world, I say unto you, were it not for this, that all mankind must have perished.
54 "But behold, the bands of death shall be broken; And the Son reigneth and hath power over the dead; Therefore, He bringeth to pass the resurrection of the dead.
55 "And there cometh a resurrection, even a first resurrection; Yea, even a resurrection of those that have been, and which are, and which shall be, Even until the resurrection of Christ, for so shall He be called.
56 "And now, the resurrection of all the prophets and all those that have believed in their words, or all those that have kept the commandments of God, These shall come forth in the first resurrection; Therefore, they are the first resurrection;
57 They are raised to dwell with God who hath redeemed them, Thus they have eternal life through Christ who hath broken the bands of death.
