2 Corinthians 4:17-5:8 For our present light affliction works out for us an eternal fullness of glory, excelling all excellence, ls while we look not at the things that are seen, but at the things that are not seen: for the things seen are temporal; but the things not seen are eternal.

Anderson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ For our present light affliction works out for us an eternal fullness of glory, excelling all excellence, ls while we look not at the things that are seen, but at the things that are not seen: for the things seen are temporal; but the things not seen are eternal. ¹⁸ :⁵ ¹ For we know that if our earthly house, which is but a tent, should be destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. ² For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house that is from heaven, ³ since, having been clothed, we shall not be found naked. ⁴ For we who are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened, not because we wish to be unclothed, but clothed upon, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. ⁵ Now, he that has formed us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the earnest of the Spirit. ⁶ Therefore, we are always confident, especially since we know that, while living in the body, we are absent from the Lord: ⁷ for we walk by faith, not by sight: ⁸ we are confident, indeed, and would be pleased rather to depart from the body, and to dwell with the Lord.
