KJV ORIGINAL
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.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
Those of us living in these earthly bodies feel the weight of it all — we're tired and burdened. But we're not hoping to just escape our bodies; we want to be given new ones where death gets completely overtaken by real, eternal life.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
We're not trying to escape life — we're waiting for the upgrade where death can't touch us anymore.
