Analysis of Peshitta verse 2Corinthians 5:8
Translations(Etheridge) On this account we confide, and long to pass away [Or, migrate.] from the body, and to be with our Lord.(Murdock) therefore we are confident, and desirous to be away from the body, and to be with our Lord. (Lamsa) This is why we are confident, and anxious to be absent from the body, and to be present with our LORD. (KJV) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Grammatical analysis
