2 Corinthians 5:1-3
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
5 1 For we know that if our earthly house— our tent[a]— is torn-down[b], we have a building[c] from God, a house not-made-by-human-hands, eternal, in the heavens.
We Do Indeed Groan In This Body And Would Prefer To Get Home To The Lord
2 For indeed in this tent we are groaning, yearning to put-on-over[d] ourselves our dwelling from heaven— 3 inasmuch[e] as we, having taken-off [f] this tent, shall not be found naked[g].
