5:1-10 The prospect of eternal hope is bright, with heavenly bodies replacing the dying bodies of this present life. The God of resurrection will also raise us and present us to himself with all believers (4:14). The immediate stimulus for this statement of resurrection hope was what Paul had to face in Ephesus (1:8-11). The frailty of his body reminded him of what lies beyond death, when this earthly tent we live in—that is, our body—will be taken down in death and dissolution (see 1 Cor 15:42-57; Phil 3:20-21).
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
δὲ
and
Here, the word Now introduces again what Paul started speaking about in 5:16. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that resumes an earlier idea or thought. Alternate translation: “Again,”
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
καὶ
and
Here, the word and could introduce: (1) additional information. Alternate translation: “and also” (2) a contrast with how they are confident. Alternate translation: “but” (3) what it is that they are confident about. Alternate translation: “enough that we”
εὐδοκοῦμεν, μᾶλλον
˱we˲_/are/_taking_pleasure rather

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor
ἐκδημῆσαι ἐκ τοῦ σώματος καὶ ἐνδημῆσαι πρὸς τὸν Κύριον
/to/_be_absent out_of the body and /to/_be_at_home with the Lord
Here Paul continues to refer to the body as if it were a building in which a person could be at home. Express the idea as you did in 5:6. Alternate translation: “not to live in the body as if it were a home but to be present with the Lord”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐκδημῆσαι ἐκ τοῦ σώματος
/to/_be_absent out_of the body
Here, the word body refers to the body that people have before they die. The phrase be away from the body could refer to: (1) a temporary situation between when a believer dies and when Jesus comes back in which the believer does not have a body but is still with the Lord. Alternate translation: “to be without a body for now” (2) the eternal situation of believers, in which they either have no bodies or have new bodies. Alternate translation: “to be away from this body forever”
