2 Corinthians 5:6-8

American Standard Version

⁶ Being therefore always of good courage, and knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord ⁷ (for we walk by faith, not by ^[a]sight); ⁸ we are of good courage, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be at home with the Lord.
