The word "tent" refers to "the earthly dwelling that we live in." The word groan is a sound that a person makes when they eagerly desire to have something that is good. See how you translated this in [2 Corinthians 5:2](./01.md).

# We do not want to be unclothed ... we want to be clothed

2017-06-21 20:50:04 +00:00
Paul speaks of the body as if it were clothing. Here "to be unclothed" refers to the death of the physical body; "to be clothed" refers to having the resurrection body that God will give. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

"to be without clothes" or "to be naked"
# so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life
Paul speaks of life as if it were an animal that eats "what is mortal." The physical body that will die will be replaced by a resurrection body that will live forever. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life
This can be stated in active form. AT: "so that life may swallow up what is mortal" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
# who gave us the Spirit as a pledge of what is to come
2017-06-24 00:15:21 +00:00
The Spirit is spoken of as if he was a partial downpayment toward eternal life. See how you translated a similar phrase in [2 Corinthians 1:22](../01/21.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
