2 Corinthians 3:7-13

7But if the aministry of death, bin letters engraved on stones, came ▼
▼ Or in glory
with glory, dso that the sons of Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face, fading as it was, 8how will the ministry of the Spirit fail to be even more with glory? 9For if ethe ministry of condemnation has glory, much more does the fministry of righteousness abound in glory. 10For indeed what had glory, in this case has no glory because of the glory that surpasses it. 11For if that which fades away was ▼
▼ Lit through
with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.

12 hTherefore having such a hope, iwe use great boldness in our speech, 13and are not like Moses, j who used to put a veil over his face so that the sons of Israel would not look intently at the end of what was fading away.
