⁷ and if the ministration of the death, in letters, engraved in stones, came in glory, so that the sons of Israel were not able to look stedfastly to the face of Moses, because of the glory of his face -- which was being made useless,

⁸ how shall the ministration of the Spirit not be more in glory?

⁹ for if the ministration of the condemnation [is] glory, much more doth the ministration of the righteousness abound in glory;

¹⁰ for also even that which hath been glorious, hath not been glorious -- in this respect, because of the superior glory;

¹¹ for if that which is being made useless [is] through glory, much more that which is remaining [is] in glory.
