1 Corinthians 15:17-19 GNB (17) And if Christ has not been raised, then your faith is a delusion and you are still lost in your sins. (18) It would also mean that the believers in Christ who have died are lost. (19) If our hope in Christ is good for this life only and no more, then we deserve more pity than anyone else in all the world.

1 Corinthians 15:17-19 CEV (17) Unless Christ was raised to life, your faith is useless, and you are still living in your sins. (18) And those people who died after putting their faith in him are completely lost. (19) If our hope in Christ is good only for this life, we are worse off than anyone else.

1 Corinthians 15:17-19 ESV (17) And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. (18) Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. (19) If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.

1 Corinthians 15:17-19 GW (17) If Christ hasn't come back to life, your faith is worthless and sin still has you in its power. (18) Then those who have died as believers in Christ no longer exist. (19) If Christ is our hope in this life only, we deserve more pity than any other people.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
