2 Corinthians 5:6-10
Christian Standard Bible
6 So we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith,(A) not by sight.(B) 8 In fact, we are confident, and we would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.(C) 9 Therefore, whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to be pleasing(D) to him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat(E) of Christ,(F) so that each may be repaid(G) for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.

2 Corinthians 5:6-10
Lexham English Bible
6 Therefore, although we are[a] always confident and know that while we[b] are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord— 7 for we live by faith, not by sight— 8 so we are confident and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. 9 Therefore indeed we have as our ambition, whether at home in the body or absent from the body, to be acceptable to him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, in order that each one may receive back the things through the body according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

New International Version
6 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. 7 For we live by faith, not by sight.(A) 8 We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.(B) 9 So we make it our goal to please him,(C) whether we are at home in the body or away from it. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us(D) for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
