| 1 | Do you say that this is self-recommendation once more? Or do we need, as some do, letters of recommendation to you or from you? | Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? |
| 2 | Our letter of recommendation is yourselves--a letter written on our hearts and everywhere known and read. | Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: |
| 3 | For all can see that you are a letter of Christ entrusted to our care, and written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the ever-living God--and not on tablets of stone, but on human hearts as tablets. | Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the 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 fleshy tables of the heart. |
| 4 | Such is the confidence which we have through Christ in the presence of God; | And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: |
| 5 | not that of ourselves we are competent to decide anything by our own reasonings, but our competency comes from God. | Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; |
| 6 | It is He also who has made us competent to serve Him in connexion with a new Covenant, which is not a written code but a Spirit; for the written code inflicts death, but the Spirit gives Life. | Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. |
| 7 | If, however, the service that proclaims death--its code being engraved in writing upon stones--came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily on the face of Moses because of the brightness of his face--a vanishing brightness; | But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away: |
| 8 | will not the service of the Spirit be far more glorious? | How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious? |
| 9 | For if the service which pronounces doom had glory, far more glorious still is the service which tells of righteousness. | For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory. |
| 10 | For, in fact, that which was once resplendent in glory has no glory at all in this respect, that it pales before the glory which surpasses it. | 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 to be abolished came with glory, much more is that which is permanent arrayed in glory. | For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious. |
| 12 | Therefore, cherishing a hope like this, we speak without reserve, and we do not imitate Moses, | Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech: |
| 13 | who used to throw a veil over his face to hide from the gaze of the children of Israel the passing away of what was but transitory. | And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: |
| 14 | Nay, their minds were made dull; for to this very day during the reading of the book of the ancient Covenant, the same veil remains unlifted, because it is only in Christ that it is to be abolished. | 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 | Yes, to this day, whenever Moses is read, a veil lies upon their hearts. | But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart. |
| 16 | But whenever the heart of the nation shall have returned to the Lord, the veil will be withdrawn. | Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away. |
| 17 | Now by "the Lord" is meant the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, freedom is enjoyed. | Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. |
| 18 | And all of us, with unveiled faces, reflecting like bright mirrors the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same likeness, from one degree of radiant holiness to another, even as derived from the Lord the Spirit. | 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. |
