Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

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-logic-result
οὖν
therefore
Here, the word Therefore introduces a conclusion or inference from what Paul has said in 5:1–6. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a conclusion or inference. Alternate translation: “Because of that” or “So”
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
καὶ εἰδότες
and /having/_known
Here, the word and could introduce: (1) additional information. Alternate translation: “and also knowing” (2) a reason why they are courageous. Alternate translation: “because we know” (3) something that is true even though they are courageous. Alternate translation: “even though we know”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure
θαρροῦντες & πάντοτε, καὶ εἰδότες ὅτι ἐνδημοῦντες ἐν τῷ σώματι, ἐκδημοῦμεν ἀπὸ τοῦ Κυρίου;
having_confidence & always and /having/_known that being_at_home in the body ˱we˲_/are/_being_absent from the Lord
Paul never gives a main verb to go with these statements. Instead, he introduces a parenthetical statement in the following verse and then ends the sentence. At the beginning of 5:8, he repeats the word that is translated courageous here, which indicates that he is going to resume speaking about what he started speaking about in this verse. If you can clearly indicate that Paul does not finish this sentence, you could use that form here, as the ULT does by using a dash. If your readers would find this structure confusing, you could make this verse a complete thought on its own. Alternate translation: “we are always courageous and know that being at home in the body, we are away from the Lord,”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / exmetaphor
ἐνδημοῦντες ἐν τῷ σώματι, ἐκδημοῦμεν ἀπὸ τοῦ Κυρίου
being_at_home in the body ˱we˲_/are/_being_absent from the Lord
Here Paul continues to refer to the body as if it were a building that a person could be at home in. Express the idea as you did in 5:1–2. Alternate translation: “living in the body, as if it were a home, we are not present with the Lord”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐν τῷ σώματι
in the body
Paul implies that this body is the one that people have before they die. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this more explicit. Alternate translation: “in our current body”
