2 Corinthians 5:1-8 For we know that, if our house on earth-this of the body, were dissolved, yet we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in heaven.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ For we know that, if our house on earth-this of the body, were dissolved, yet we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in heaven. ² And on this account also, we groan, and wish to be clothed with our house from heaven: ³ if indeed, when clothed, we shall not be found naked. ⁴ For while we are here in this house, we groan under its burden; yet ye desire, not to throw it off; but to be clothed over it, so that its mortality may be absorbed in life. ⁵ And he that prepareth us for this thing, is God: who hath given us the earnest of his Spirit. ⁶ Therefore, because we know and are persuaded, that while we lodge in the body we sojourn away from our Lord; ⁷ (for we walk by faith, and not by sight;) ⁸ therefore we are confident, and desirous to be away from the body, and to be with our Lord.
