2 Corinthians 5:1-8

Tyndale TYN

1 We knowe suerly yf oure erthy mancion wherin we now dwell were destroyed that we have a bildinge ordeyned of god an habitacion not made with hondes but eternall in heve.

2 And herefore sigh we desyringe to be clothed wt oure mansion which is from heven:

3 so yet if that we be founde clothed and not naked.

4 For as longe as we are in this tabernacle we sigh and are greved for we wold not be vnclothed but wolde be clothed apon that mortalite myght be swalowed vp of lyfe.

5 He that hath ordeyned vs for this thynge ys god which very same hath geven vnto vs the ernest of the sprete.

6 Therfore we are alwaye of good chere and knowe well that as longe as we are at home in the body we are absent from God.

7 For we walke in fayth and se not.

8 Neverthelesse we are of good comforte and had lever to be absent from the body and to be present with the lorde.

New International Version NIV

1 For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.

2 Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling,

3 because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.

4 For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

5 Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.

6 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord.

7 For we live by faith, not by sight.

8 We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
