1 G756 Do we begin [G5731] G3825 again G4921 to commend [G5721] G1438 ourselves G1508 ? or G5535 need we [G5719] G5613 , as G5100 some G1992 others, epistles G4956 of commendation G4314 to G5209 you G2228 , or G4956 letters of commendation G1537 from G5216 you?

2 G5210 Ye G2075 are [G5748] G2257 our G1992 epistle G1449 written [G5772] G1722 in G2257 our G2588 hearts G1097 , known [G5746] G2532 and G314 read [G5746] G5259 of G3956 all G444 men:

3 G5319 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared [G5746] G3754 to G2075 be [G5748] G1992 the epistle G5547 of Christ G1247 ministered [G5685] G5259 by G2257 us G1449 , written [G5772] G3756 not G3188 with ink G235 , but G4151 with the Spirit G2198 of the living [G5723] G2316 God G3756 ; not G1722 in G4109 tables G3035 of stone G235 , but G1722 in G4560 fleshy G4109 tables G2588 of the heart.

4 G1161 And G5108 such G4006 trust G2192 have we [G5719] G1223 through G5547 Christ G4314 to G2316 God-ward:

5 G3756 Not G3754 that G2070 we are [G5748] G2425 sufficient G575 of G1438 ourselves G3049 to think [G5664] G5100 any thing G5613 as G1537 of G1438 ourselves G235 ; but G2257 our G2426 sufficiency G1537 is of G2316 God;

6 G3739 Who G2532 also G2427 hath made G2248 us G2427 able [G5656] G1249 ministers G2537 of the new G1242 testament G3756 ; not G1121 of the letter G235 , but G4151 of the spirit G1063 : for G1121 the letter G615 killeth [G5719] G1161 , but G4151 the spirit G2227 giveth life [G5719] .

7 G1161 But G1487 if G1248 the ministration G2288 of death G1722 , written G1121 G1795 and engraven [G5772] G1722 in G3037 stones G1096 , was [G5675] G1722 glorious G1391 G5620 , so G5207 that the children G2474 of Israel G1410 could [G5738] G3361 not G816 stedfastly behold [G5658] G1519 the face G4383 G3475 of Moses G1223 for G1391 the glory G846 of his G4383 countenance G3588 ; which G2673 glory was to be done away [G5746] :

8 G4459 How G1248 shall G3780 not G1248 the ministration G4151 of the spirit G2071 be [G5704] G3123 rather G1722 G1391 glorious?

9 G1063 For G1487 if G1248 the ministration G2633 of condemnation G1391 be glory G4183 , much G3123 more G1248 doth the ministration G1343 of righteousness G4052 exceed [G5719] G1722 in G1391 glory.

10 G1063 For G2532 even G1392 that which was made glorious [G5769] G3761 had no G1392 glory [G5772] G1722 in G5129 this G3313 respect G1752 , by reason G1391 of the glory G5235 that excelleth [G5723] .

11 G1063 For G1487 if G2673 that which is done away [G5746] G1223 was glorious G1391 G4183 , much G3123 more G3306 that which remaineth [G5723] G1722 is glorious G1391 .

12 G3767 Seeing then G2192 that we have [G5723] G5108 such G1680 hope G5530 , we use [G5736] G4183 great G3954 plainness of speech:

13 G2532 And G3756 not G2509 as G3475 Moses G5087 , which put [G5707] G2571 a vail G1909 over G1438 his G4383 face G4314 , that G5207 the children G2474 of Israel G816 could G3361 not G816 stedfastly look [G5658] G1519 to G5056 the end G2673 of that which is abolished [G5746] :

14 G235 But G846 their G3540 minds G4456 were blinded [G5681] G1063 : for G891 until G4594 this day G3306 remaineth [G5719] G846 the same G2571 vail G3361 untaken G343 away [G5746] G1909 in G320 the reading G3820 of the old G1242 testament G3748 ; which G2673 vail is done away [G5743] G1722 in G5547 Christ.

15 G235 But G2193 even G4594 unto this day G2259 , when G3475 Moses G314 is read [G5743] G2571 , the vail G2749 is upon [G5736] G1909 G846 their G2588 heart.

16 G1161 Nevertheless G2259 when G302 it G1994 shall turn [G5661] G4314 to G2962 the Lord G2571 , the vail G4014 shall be taken away [G5743] .

17 G1161 Now G2962 the Lord G2076 is [G5748] G4151 that Spirit G1161 : and G3757 where G4151 the Spirit G2962 of the Lord G1563 is, there G1657 is liberty.

18 G1161 But G2249 we G3956 all G343 , with open [G5772] G4383 face G2734 beholding as in a glass [G5734] G1391 the glory G2962 of the Lord G3339 , are changed [G5743] G846 into the same G1504 image G575 from G1391 glory G1519 to G1391 glory G2509 , even as G575 by G4151 the Spirit G2962 of the Lord.

ERV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? or need we, as do some, epistles of commendation to you or from you? ² Ye are our epistle, written in our hearts, known and read of all men; ³ being made manifest that ye are an 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 tables [that are] hearts of flesh. ⁴ And such confidence have we through Christ to God-ward: ⁵ not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God; ⁶ who also made us sufficient as ministers of a new covenant; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. ⁷ But if the ministration of death, written, [and] engraven on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look stedfastly upon the face of Moses for the glory of his face; which [glory] was passing away: ⁸ how shall not rather the ministration of the spirit be with glory? ⁹ For if the ministration of condemnation is glory, much rather doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory. ¹⁰ For verily that which hath been made glorious hath not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasseth. ¹¹ For if that which passeth away [was] with glory, much more that which remaineth [is] in glory. ¹² Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech, ¹³ and [are] not as Moses, [who] put a veil upon his face, that the children of Israel should not look stedfastly on the end of that which was passing away: ¹⁴ but their minds were hardened: for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remaineth unlifted; which [veil] is done away in Christ. ¹⁵ But unto this day, whensoever Moses is read, a veil lieth upon their heart. ¹⁶ But whensoever it shall turn to the Lord, the veil is taken away. ¹⁷ Now the Lord is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, [there] is liberty. ¹⁸ But we all, with unveiled face reflecting as a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.
