For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is
destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with
hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 For in this
tent we groan, longing to put on our heavenly
dwelling, 3 if indeed by putting it on we may
not be found naked. 4 For 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. 5 He who
has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the
Spirit as a guarantee.
6 So we are always of good courage. We know that
while we are at home in the body we are away from the
Lord, 7 for we walk by faith, not by sight. 8
Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the
body and at home with the Lord. 9 So whether
we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please
Him. 10 For we must all appear before the
judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due
for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.
