1 For we are conscious that if this our tent of flesh is taken down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in heaven.
2 For in this we are crying in weariness, greatly desiring to be clothed with our house from heaven:
3 So that our spirits may not be unclothed.
4 For truly, we who are in this tent do give out cries of weariness, for the weight of care which is on us; not because we are desiring to be free from the body, but so that we may have our new body, and death may be overcome by life.
5 Now he who has made us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a witness of what is to come.
