2 Corinthians 5:6-10
Legacy Standard Bible
6 Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that (A)while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord— 7 for (B)we walk by faith, not by [a]sight— 8 we are of good courage and (C)prefer rather to be absent from the body and (D)to be at home with the Lord. 9 Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be (E)pleasing to Him. 10 For we must all appear before (F)the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for [b]his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

2 Corinthians 5:6-10
New Living Translation
6 So we are always confident, even though we know that as long as we live in these bodies we are not at home with the Lord. 7 For we live by believing and not by seeing. 8 Yes, we are fully confident, and we would rather be away from these earthly bodies, for then we will be at home with the Lord. 9 So whether we are here in this body or away from this body, our goal is to please him. 10 For we must all stand before Christ to be judged. We will each receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body.
