For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: {conversation...: or, we live or conduct ourselves as citizens of heaven, or, for obtaining heaven}

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

So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; {glorious...: Gr. the appearance of the glory of the great God, and of our Saviour Jesus Christ}

Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? {the body...: or, this body of death}

For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.

For to me to live {is} Christ, and to die {is} gain.

And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

But if we hope for that we see not, {then} do we with patience wait for {it}.

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

(For the fruit of the Spirit {is} in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without {were} fightings, within {were} fears.

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

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

Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing {is} God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.

To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this {is} our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this {is} the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

But if we hope for that we see not, {then} do we with patience wait for {it}.

For since the beginning of the world {men} have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, {what} he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him. {seen...: or, seen a God beside thee, which doeth so for him, etc}

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

Thou shalt not delay {to offer} the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me. {the first...: Heb. thy fulness} {liquors: Heb. tear}

That thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which thou shalt bring of thy land that the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt put {it} in a basket, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name there.

Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law {is} my delight.

For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.

Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; {they are} the firstfruits unto the LORD.

But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:

And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, {even} Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth. {grow: Heb. as fishes do increase}
