2 Corinthians 5:6-10
New Matthew Bible
6 Therefore we are always of good cheer. And we know well that as long as we are at home in the body, we are away from God. 7 For we walk in faith, and see not. 8 Nevertheless, we are of good comfort – and yet would rather be away from the body, and be present with the Lord.
9 And so whether we are at home or away from home, we endeavour to please him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that every person may receive the works of his body, according to what he has done, whether it be good or bad.

2 Corinthians 5:6-10
Authorized (King James) Version
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 7 (for we walk by faith, not by sight:) 8 we are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
