2 Corinthians 5:8

⁶ Therefore we are always confident, although we know that while we are at home in the body, we are away from the Lord.

⁷ For we walk by faith, not by sight.

We are confident, then, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

⁹ So we aspire to please Him, whether we are here in this body or away from it.

¹⁰ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
