1 For we know that if our earthly dwelling, a tent, should be destroyed, we have a building from God, a dwelling not made with hands, eternal in heaven.
2 For in this tent we groan, longing to be further clothed with our heavenly habitation
3 if indeed, when we have taken it off, we shall not be found naked.
4 For while we are in this tent we groan and are weighed down, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
5 Now the one who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a first installment.
