English Standard Version
2 Corinthians 5:2-8
2For in this tent we groan, longing to put on our heavenly dwelling,
3if indeed by putting it on we may not be found naked.
4For while we are still in this tent, we groan, being burdened—not that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
5He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.
6So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord,
7for we walk by faith, not by sight.
8Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
