⁸We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

²⁰According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.
