2 Corinthians 3 KJV

¹Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some [others], epistles of commendation to you, or [letters] of commendation from you?

²Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:

³[Forasmuch as ye are] manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart. God Holy Spirit Jesus Christ

⁴And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: God Jesus Christ

⁵Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency [is] of God; God

⁶Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.

⁷But if the ministration of death, written [and] engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which [glory] was to be done away: Jacob Moses

⁸How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?

⁹For if the ministration of condemnation [be] glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.

¹⁰For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.

¹¹For if that which is done away [was] glorious, much more that which remaineth [is] glorious.

¹²Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:

¹³And not as Moses, [which] put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: Jacob Moses

¹⁴But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which [vail] is done away in Christ. God Jesus Christ

¹⁵But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart. Moses

¹⁶Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away. God Jesus Christ

¹⁷Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord [is], there [is] liberty. God Holy Spirit Jesus Christ

¹⁸But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord. God Holy Spirit Jesus Christ
