2 Corinthians 3:12-17

12 Since we have such a hope, ^awe are very bold, 13 not like Moses, ^bwho would put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not gaze at the outcome of what was being brought to an end. 14 But ^ctheir minds were ^dhardened. For to this day, ^ewhen they read ^fthe old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away. 15 Yes, to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their hearts. 16 But when ^gone ^{▼▼Greek he} turns to the Lord, ⁱthe veil is removed. 17 Now the Lord ^{▼▼Or this Lord} is the Spirit, and where ^kthe Spirit of the Lord is, there is ^lfreedom.
