* For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved , we have a building of God , an house not made with hands , eternal in the heavens . * For in this we groan , earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven : * If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked . * For we that are in this tabernacle do groan , being burdened : not for that we would be unclothed , but clothed upon , that mortality might be swallowed up of life . * Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God , who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit . * Therefore we are always confident , knowing that , whilst we are at home in the body , we are absent from the Lord : * (For we walk by faith , not by sight :) * We are confident , I say , and willing rather to be absent from the body , and to be present with the Lord . * Wherefore we labour , that , whether present or absent , we may be accepted of him . * For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ ; that every one may receive the things done in his body , according to that he hath done , whether it be good or bad .
