   of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:   
      
   14 But 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.   
      
   15 But even unto 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.   
      
   2 Corinthians Chapter 4   
      
   1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we   
   faint not;   
      
   2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in   
   craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by   
   manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's   
   conscience in the sight of God.   
      
   3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:   
      
   4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which   
   believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the   
   image of God, should shine unto them.   
      
   5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves   
   your servants for Jesus' sake.   
      
   6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined   
   in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in   
   the face of Jesus Christ.   
      
   7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of   
   the power may be of God, and not of us.   
      
   8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed,   
   but not in despair;   
      
   9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;   
      
   10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that   
   the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.   
      
   11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake,   
   that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.   
      
   12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.   
      
   13 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I   
   believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;   
      
   14 Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also   
   by Jesus, and shall present us with you.   
      
   15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might   
   through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.   
      
   16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet   
   the inward man is renewed day by day.   
      
   17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a   
   far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;   
      
   18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things   
   which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the   
   things which are not seen are eternal.
