2 Corinthians 5:6-11
English Standard Version
6 So we are always of good courage. We know that (A)while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, 7 for (B)we walk by faith, not (C)by sight. 8 Yes, we are of good courage, and we (D)would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. 9 So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to (E)please him. 10 For (F)we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, (G)so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.

2 Timothy 4:16-18
English Standard Version
16 At my first defense no one came to stand by me, but all deserted me. (A)May it not be charged against them! 17 But (B)the Lord stood by me and (C)strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and (D)all the Gentiles might hear it. So (E)I was rescued (F)from the lion's mouth. 18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed and bring me safely into his heavenly kingdom. (G)To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
