Let's take a look how Darby translated this..

Thus also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul;
the last Adam a quickening spirit.

I think the way Darby translates this verse gives the English reader a clear sense of what was originally conveyed in the Greek. I would note that he used a small "s" for spirit here as well.
