2 Corinthians 5:9
So we aspire to please Him, whether we are here in this body or away from it.
Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
Therefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well pleasing to him.
Wherefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well-pleasing unto him.
