Help with translation of 1 cor 15:29

[Jing]

Dear Dave,

That is really kind of you for your encouraging words and useful information about the Aramaic Bible. I believe I have got the most important links.

I have brethren who do believe the originality of the Hebrew/Aramaic manuscripts of the NT. In fact, I have forwarded some articles in another forum I visit frequently to advise the Aramaic primacy of the NT. Though it is annoying to many traditional minds, it is indeed welcomed by some brethren of mine. At least it is not an offense to all when I do 'word' studies using the Peshitta Aramaic NT, likening to many using the Greek mss with concordance. For this purpose, the interlinear translation with a lexicon link will be very important and helpful.

Thank you again, Dave!

God bless you!

PS. As a further encouragent to me, would you please give an sample literal translation of Col. 1:12-20? In fact, I have a doctrinical issue relevant to those verses. With a doctrinical belief, the following is my rendering without any consideration of the actual translation.
