| 5:9 | Therefore we labor, so that whether present or absent, we may be accepted of Him. | Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. |
| 5:10 | Because, we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether it is good or bad. | 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. |
| 5:11 | Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest to God, and I also trust are made manifest in your consciences. | 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. |
| 5:12 | Because, we do not commend ourselves again to you, but give you opportunity to boast on our behalf, that you may have something to answer them who boast in appearance and not in heart. | 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. |
| 5:13 | Because, if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; or if we are sober, it is for you. | For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. |
| 5:14 | Because, the love of Christ compels us, because we have judged thus: that if One died for all, then all died; | For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: |
| 5:15 | and that He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again. | 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. |
| 5:16 | Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet from now on we know Him like this no longer. | 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. |
| 5:17 | Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. | Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. |
| 5:18 | Now all these things are from God, who has reconciled us to Himself by Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation, | And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; |
| 5:19 | that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. | 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. |
| 5:20 | Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading to you through us: we urge you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God. | 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. |
| 5:21 | Because, He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. | 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. |
| 5:8 | We are confident, I proclaim, and willing rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. | We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. |
| 5:7 | Because we walk by faith, not by sight. | (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) |
| 5:6 | Therefore we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. | Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: |
| 5:5 | Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given to us the Spirit as a guarantee. | Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. |
| 5:4 | Because, we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life. | 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. |
| 5:3 | if indeed, having been clothed, we will not be found naked. | If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. |
| 5:2 | Because, in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven, | For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: |
| 5:1 | Because, we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. | 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. |
