For indeed in this we groan, longing to put on our dwelling which is from heaven,
And not only so, but even we ourselves who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, we ourselves also groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.
For I am pressed down by the two, having a desire to depart and be with Messiah, which is much better,
Wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from this body of death?
See, I speak a secret to you: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
Skin and flesh you put on me, and wove me with bones and sinews.
