1 Corinthians 15:25-27
J.B. Phillips New Testament
24-27 Then, and not till then, authority and power, hands over the kingdom to God the Father. Christ’s reign will and must continue until every enemy has been conquered. The last enemy of all to be destroyed is death itself. The scripture says: ‘He has put all things under his feet’. But in the term “all things” it is quite obvious that God, who brings them all under subjection to Christ, is himself excepted.

New International Version
25 For he must reign(A) until he has put all his enemies under his feet.(B) 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death.(C) 27 For he “has put everything under his feet.”[a](D) Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ.(E)
