For in this earthly house we groan, because we desire to put on our heavenly dwelling,

我们在这帐棚里叹息，深想得那从天上来的房屋，好像穿上衣服；

我们在这帐篷里叹息，渴望得到那从天上来的居所，好像穿上衣服；

我们在这帐篷里叹息，渴望得到那从天上来的居所，好像穿上衣服；

我们在这地上的“帐篷”里叹息，渴望早日迁进那天上的“房屋”，好像更换衣服一样。

我们现今在这帐棚里面叹息，渴望迁到那天上的住处，好像换上新的衣服；

实际上，我们就是在这帐篷里呻吟叹息，切切地想穿上我们那从天上而来的居所。

我們在這帳棚裏歎息，深想得那從天上來的房屋，好像穿上衣服；

我們在這帳篷裏嘆息，渴望得到那從天上來的居所，好像穿上衣服；

我們在這帳篷裏嘆息，渴望得到那從天上來的居所，好像穿上衣服；

我們在這地上的「帳篷」裡歎息，渴望早日遷進那天上的「房屋」，好像更換衣服一樣。

我們現今在這帳棚裡面歎息，渴望遷到那天上的住處，好像換上新的衣服；

我們在這帳篷裏呻吟歎息，切慕我們屬天的住所、多給我們穿上一件；

實際上，我們就是在這帳篷裡呻吟嘆息，切切地想穿上我們那從天上而來的居所。

我處此則歎息、深慕自天之室以被體、

吾處此嘆息、欲得自天而降之室、

我處此而歎息、甚慕得我由天之屋、若衣之被身、

是故吾人呻吟不輟、渴望得庇於天上之安宅、有如衣之蔽體；

Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling,

During our time on earth we groan. We long to put on our house in heaven as if it were clothing.

For in this tent we groan, longing to put on our heavenly dwelling,

We grow weary in our present bodies, and we long to put on our heavenly bodies like new clothing.

Indeed, we groan in this tent, desiring to put on our heavenly dwelling,

For indeed, in this tent we groan, longing to be clothed with our dwelling from heaven,

For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,

For verily in this we groan, longing to be clothed upon with our habitation which is from heaven:

Indeed, we groan in this body, desiring to put on our dwelling from heaven,

For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:

For most certainly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,

Not only this, but we ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we eagerly await our adoption, the redemption of our bodies.

For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality.Now when this perishable puts on the imperishable, and this mortal puts on immortality, then the saying that is written will happen,“ Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

I feel torn between the two, because I have a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far,

if indeed, after we have put on our heavenly house, we will not be found naked.For we groan while we are in this tent, since we are weighed down, because we do not want to be unclothed, but clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?

This brings you great joy, although you may have to suffer for a short time in various trials.Such trials show the proven character of your faith, which is much more valuable than gold– gold that is tested by fire, even though it is passing away– and will bring praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.
