Original text and translations

German text 20  Unser Wandel ist im Himmel, von dannen wir auch warten des Heilands, Jesu Christi, des Herren, 21  welcher unsern nichtigen Leib verklären wird, daß er ähnlich werde seinem verklärten Leibe nach der Wirkung, damit er kann auch alle Ding ihm untertänig machen.

English translation 20  Our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a Saviour from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21  who will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control.

Hungarian translation 20  A mi hazánk azonban a mennyekben van, ahonnan az üdvözítőt is várjuk, az Úr Jézus Krisztust. 21  Ő átalakítja gyarló testünket, és hasonlóvá teszi az ő dicsőséges testéhez, azzal az erővel, amellyel hatalma alá vethet mindent.
