2 Corinthians 3:12-14

Expanded Bible

¹² We have this hope, so we ·are very bold [or speak with boldness/confidence]. ¹³ We are not like Moses, who put a ·covering [veil] over his face so the ·Israelites [^Lchildren of Israel] would not see it [Ex. 34:29–35]. The glory was ·disappearing [fading; or made ineffective], and Moses did not want them to see it end. ¹⁴ But their minds were ·closed [stubborn; hardened], and even today that same ·covering [veil] ·hides the meaning [^Lremains] when they read the old ·agreement [covenant]. That covering is ·taken away [^Lnot lifted, because it is removed] only through Christ.
