2 Corinthians 3:13
Compare all
11 For if what is passing away was glorious, what remains is much more glorious.
12 Therefore, since we have such hope, awe use great boldness of speech—  
13 unlike Moses, awho put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at bthe end of what was passing away.  
14 But atheir minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ.  
15 But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.
16 Nevertheless awhen one turns to the Lord, bthe veil is taken away.  
17 Now athe Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is bliberty.  
18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding aas in a mirror bthe glory of the Lord, care being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as1 by the Spirit of the Lord.
