1 For we know that if our earthly house, the tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made by hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 For indeed, in this house we groan, because we desire to put on our dwelling from heaven,
3 if indeed, even after we have taken it off, we will not be found naked.
4 For indeed we who are in this tent groan, being burdened for this reason, that we do not want to be unclothed, but to be clothed, in order that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
