1. For we know, if our earthly house of this habitation be dissolved, that we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in heaven.
2. For in this also we groan, desiring to be clothed upon with our habitation that is from heaven.
3. Yet so that we be found clothed, not naked.
4. For we also, who are in this tabernacle, do groan, being burthened; because we would not be unclothed, but clothed upon, that that which is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
5. Now he that maketh us for this very thing, is God, who hath given us the pledge of the Spirit.
