2 Corinthians 5

1 For we know that—if, our earthly tent-dwelling, should be taken down, we have, a building of God, a dwelling not made by hand, age-abiding in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)

We know for that if the earthly of us house the tent shall be destroyed, a building from God we have, a house not made with hands eternal in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)

2 And verily, in this, we sigh, earnestly desiring to clothe ourselves over, with our habitation which is of heaven, —

And indeed in this we groan, the dwelling of us which [is] from heaven to be clothed with longing;

3 Although, indeed, even clothing ourselves, we shall not be found, naked; —

(If even *NK+o) even (having put off *N+KO) not naked we will be found.

4 And verily, we who are in the tent, do sigh, being weighed down, while yet we are not wishing to unclothe ourselves, but to clothe ourselves over, —in order that, what is mortal, may be swallowed up, by life.

And for those being in the tent we groan being burdened, (because *N+kO) that not we do wish to be unclothed but to be clothed, that may be swallowed up the mortal by life.

5 Now, he that hath wrought us for this very thing, is, God, —who hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit,

The [One] now having prepared us for very this [is] God, (and *k) having given to us the pledge of the Spirit.

6 Having good courage, therefore, at all times, and knowing that—remaining at home in the body, we are away from home from the Lord, —

being confident therefore always and knowing that being at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord;

7 By faith, are we walking, not by sight; —

through faith for we walk, not through sight,

8 We have good courage, however, and are well pleased—rather to be away from home, out of the body, and to come home, unto the Lord.

We are confident now and we are pleased rather to be absent out of the body and to be at home with the Lord.

9 Wherefore also we are ambitious—whether at home, or away from home, to be, well-pleasing unto him.

Therefore also we are ambitious, whether being at home or being away, well-pleasing to Him to be;

10 For, we all, must needs be made manifest before the judgment seat of the Christ, that each one may get back the things done by means of the body, according to the things which he practised, whether good or corrupt.

For all of us to be revealed it behooves before the judgment seat of Christ, that may receive back each the [things done] in the body according to what he did, whether good or (evil. *N+kO)

11 Knowing, then, the fear of the Lord, we persuade, men, but, unto God, are manifest, —I hope, moreover, even in your consciences, that we are manifest:

Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord men we persuade to God and we have been made manifest; I hope now also in the consciences of you to have been made manifest.

12 Not again, ourselves, do we commend unto you, but as though an occasion we were giving unto you—something to boast of, in our behalf; that ye may have something suited unto them who, in appearance, are boasting, and not in heart.

Not (for *k) again ourselves are we commending to you, but occasion are giving to you of boasting on behalf of us, so that you may have [an answer] toward those in appearance boasting and (not *N+kO) (in *no) [the] heart.

13 For, whether we have been beside ourselves, it hath been for God, or, whether we are sober-minded, it is for you.

If for we are crazy, [it is] for God; or if we are sober-minded [it is] for you.

14 For, the love of the Christ, constraineth us; —

The for love of Christ compels us having concluded this, that (if *k) One for all has died; therefore all have died.

15 Having judged this, —that, one, in behalf of all, died, hence, they all, died; and, in behalf of all, died he, —in order that, they who live, no longer for themselves, should live, but for him who, in their behalf, died and rose again.

And for all He died, that those living no longer to themselves may live but to the [One] for them having died and having been raised again.

16 So that, we, henceforth, know, no one, after the flesh: if we have even been gaining, after the flesh, a knowledge of Christ,

Therefore we ourselves from now no [one] know according to [the] flesh; If (now *k) even we have regarded according to flesh Christ, yet now no longer no longer we regard [Him thus].

17 On the contrary, now, no longer, are we gaining it. So that, if any one is in Christ, there is a new creation! the old things, have passed away, —Lo! they have become new!

Therefore if anyone [is] in Christ, [he is] a new creation; The old things have passed away, behold has come into being new (all things. *K)

18 The all things, moreover, are of God, —who hath reconciled us unto himself, through Christ, and hath given, unto us, the reconciling ministry: —

And all things [are] of God the [One who] having reconciled us to Himself through (Jesus *K) Christ and having given to us the ministry of reconciliation,

19 How that, God, was in Christ, reconciling, a world, unto himself, not reckoning, unto them, their offences, —and hath put, in us, the reconciling discourse.

how for God was in Christ [the] world reconciling to Himself, not reckoning to them the trespasses of them, and having put into us the word of reconciliation.

20 In behalf of Christ, therefore, are we ambassadors, —as if God were beseeching through us: we entreat, in behalf of Christ, —be reconciled unto God!

For Christ therefore we are ambassadors, as though God is beseeching through us; We implore on behalf of Christ: do be reconciled to God.

21 Him who knew not sin, in our behalf, he made to be, sin, that we might become God’s righteousness in him.

The [One] (for *k) not having known sin for us sin He made, so that we ourselves (may become *N+kO) [the] righteousness of God in Him.
