| 2nd-Corinthians 5:1 | For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. | For we know that if the earthly house of our tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens. | For we are conscious that if this our tent of flesh is taken down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in heaven. | For we know that if this poor tent, our earthly house, is taken down, we have in Heaven a building which God has provided, a house not built by human hands, but eternal. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:2 | For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: | For verily in this we groan, longing to be clothed upon with our habitation which is from heaven: | For in this we are crying in weariness, greatly desiring to be clothed with our house from heaven: | For in this one we sigh, because we long to put on over it our dwelling which comes from Heaven |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:3 | If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. | if so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. | So that our spirits may not be unclothed. | if indeed having really put on a robe we shall not be found to be unclothed. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:4 | For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. | For indeed we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened; not for that we would be unclothed, but that we would be clothed upon, that what is mortal may be swallowed up of life. | For truly, we who are in this tent do give out cries of weariness, for the weight of care which is on us; not because we are desiring to be free from the body, but so that we may have our new body, and death may be overcome by life. | Yes, we who are in this tent certainly do sigh under our burdens, for we do not wish to lay aside that with which we are now clothed, but to put on more, so that our mortality may be absorbed in Life. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:5 | Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. | Now he that wrought us for this very thing is God, who gave unto us the earnest of the Spirit. | Now he who has made us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a witness of what is to come. | And He who formed us with this very end in view is God, who has given us His Spirit as a pledge and foretaste of that bliss. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:6 | Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: | Being therefore always of good courage, and knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord | So, then, we are ever without fear, and though conscious that while we are in the body we are away from the Lord, | We have therefore a cheerful confidence. We know that while we are at home in the body we are banished from the Lord; |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:7 | (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) | (for we walk by faith, not by sight); | (For we are walking by faith, not by seeing,) | for we are living a life of faith, and not one of sight. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:8 | We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. | we are of good courage, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be at home with the Lord. | We are without fear, desiring to be free from the body, and to be with the Lord. | So we have a cheerful confidence, and we anticipate with greater delight being banished from the body and going home to the Lord. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:9 | Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. | Wherefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well-pleasing unto him. | For this reason we make it our purpose, in the body or away from it, to be well-pleasing to him. | And for this reason also we make it our ambition, whether at home or in exile, to please Him perfectly. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:10 | 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. | For we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things [done] in the body, according to what he hath done, whether [it be] good or bad. | For we all have to come before Christ to be judged; so that every one of us may get his reward for the things done in the body, good or bad. | For we must all of us appear before Christ's judgement-seat in our true characters, in order that each may then receive an award for his actions in this life, in accordance with what he has done, whether it be good or whether it be worthless. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:11 | Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences. | Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are made manifest unto God; and I hope that we are made manifest also in your consciences. | Having in mind, then, the fear of the Lord, we put these things before men, but God sees our hearts; and it is my hope that we may seem right in your eyes. | Therefore, because we realize how greatly the Lord is to be feared, we are endeavouring to win men over, and God recognizes what our motives are, and I hope that you, in your hearts, recognize them too. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:12 | For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart. | We are not again commending ourselves unto you, but [speak] as giving you occasion of glorying on our behalf, that ye may have wherewith to answer them that glory in appearance, and not in heart. | We are not again requesting your approval, but we are giving you the chance of taking pride in us, so that you may be able to give an answer to those whose glory is in seeming, and not in the heart. | We are not again commending ourselves to your favour, but are furnishing you with a ground of boasting on our behalf, so that you may have a reply ready for those with whom superficial appearances are everything and sincerity of heart counts for nothing. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:13 | For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. | For whether we are beside ourselves, it is unto God; or whether we are of sober mind, it is unto you. | For if we are foolish, it is to God; or if we are serious, it is for you. | For if we have been beside ourselves, it has been for God's glory; or if we are now in our right senses, it is in order to be of service to you. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:14 | For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: | For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that one died for all, therefore all died; | For it is the love of Christ which is moving us; because we are of the opinion that if one was put to death for all, then all have undergone death; | For the love of Christ overmasters us, the conclusion at which we have arrived being this that One having died for all, His death was their death, |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:15 | And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. | and he died for all, that they that live should no longer live unto themselves, but unto him who for their sakes died and rose again. | And that he underwent death for all, so that the living might no longer be living to themselves, but to him who underwent death for them and came back from the dead. | and that He died for all in order that the living may no longer live to themselves, but to Him who died for them and rose again. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:16 | Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. | Wherefore we henceforth know no man after the flesh: even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know [him so] no more. | For this reason, from this time forward we have knowledge of no man after the flesh: even if we have had knowledge of Christ after the flesh, we have no longer any such knowledge. | Therefore for the future we know no one simply as a man. Even if we have known Christ as a man, yet now we do so no longer. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:17 | Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. | Wherefore if any man is in Christ, [he is] a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new. | So if any man is in Christ, he is in a new world: the old things have come to an end; they have truly become new. | So that if any one is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old state of things has passed away; a new state of things has come into existence. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:18 | And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; | But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave unto us the ministry of reconciliation; | But all things are of God, who has made us at peace with himself through Christ, and has given to us the work of making peace; | And all this is from God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Christ, and has appointed us to serve in the ministry of reconciliation. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:19 | To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. | to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation. | That is, that God was in Christ making peace between the world and himself, not putting their sins to their account, and having given to us the preaching of this news of peace. | We are to tell how God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not charging men's transgressions to their account, and that He has entrusted to us the Message of this reconciliation. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:20 | Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. | We are ambassadors therefore on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beseech [you] on behalf of Christ, be ye reconciled to God. | So we are the representatives of Christ, as if God was making a request to you through us: we make our request to you, in the name of Christ, be at peace with God. | On Christ's behalf therefore we come as ambassadors, God, as it were, making entreaty through our lips: we, on Christ's behalf, beseech men to be reconciled to God. |
| 2nd-Corinthians 5:21 | For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. | Him who knew no sin he made [to be] sin on our behalf; that we might become the righteousness of God in him. | For him who had no knowledge of sin God made to be sin for us; so that we might become the righteousness of God in him. | He has made Him who knew nothing of sin to be sin for us, in order that in Him we may become the righteousness of God. |
