10. For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
11. For if that which was done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
12. Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
13. And not as Moses, who put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not steadfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:
14. But their minds were blinded: for until this day the same vail remaineth untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
15. But even to this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
16. Nevertheless, when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
17. Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18. But 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.
