2 Corinthians 3:7-14

7(But if the ministry of death, in letters, graven in stones, began with glory, so that the children of Israel could not fix their eyes on the face of Moses, on account of the glory of his face, [a glory] which is annulled;

8how shall not rather the ministry of the Spirit subsist in glory?

9For if the ministry of condemnation [be] glory, much rather the ministry of righteousness abounds in glory.

10For also that [which was] glorified is not glorified in this respect, on account of the surpassing glory.

11For if that annulled [was introduced] with glory, much rather that which abides [subsists] in glory.

12Having therefore such hope, we use much boldness:

13and not according as Moses put a veil on his own face, so that the children of Israel should not fix their eyes on the end of that annulled.

14But their thoughts have been darkened, for unto this day the same veil remains in reading the old covenant, unremoved, which in Christ is annulled.
