哥林多后书 3
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
门徒为保罗的荐书
3 我们岂是又举荐自己吗？岂像别人，用人的荐信给你们或用你们的荐信给人吗？ 2 你们就是我们的荐信，写在我们的心里，被众人所知道所念诵的。 3 你们明显是基督的信，借着我们修成的：不是用墨写的，乃是用永生神的灵写的；不是写在石版上，乃是写在心版上。 4 我们因基督，所以在神面前才有这样的信心。 5 并不是我们凭自己能承担什么事，我们所能承担的，乃是出于神。 6 他叫我们能承当这新约的执事，不是凭着字句，乃是凭着精意；因为那字句是叫人死，精意[a]是叫人活。 7 那用字刻在石头上属死的职事尚且有荣光，甚至以色列人因摩西面上的荣光，不能定睛看他的脸，这荣光原是渐渐退去的； 8 何况那属灵的职事，岂不更有荣光吗？ 9 若是定罪的职事有荣光，那称义的职事荣光就越发大了。 10 那从前有荣光的，因这极大的荣光就算不得有荣光了。 11 若那废掉的有荣光，这长存的就更有荣光了。
主的灵在哪里哪里就得以自由
12 我们既有这样的盼望，就大胆讲说， 13 不像摩西将帕子蒙在脸上，叫以色列人不能定睛看到那将废者的结局。 14 但他们的心地刚硬，直到今日诵读旧约的时候，这帕子还没有揭去；这帕子在基督里已经废去了。 15 然而直到今日，每逢诵读摩西书的时候，帕子还在他们心上。 16 但他们的心几时归向主，帕子就几时除去了。 17 主就是那灵，主的灵在哪里，哪里就得以自由。 18 我们众人既然敞着脸得以看见主的荣光，好像从镜子里返照，就变成主的形状，荣上加荣，如同从主的灵变成的。

保罗的荐信
3 难道我们又是在称赞自己吗？难道我们像别人一样，需要拿着推荐信去见你们，或拿着你们的推荐信去见别人吗？ 2 你们自己就是我们的推荐信，写在了我们心坎上，众所周知，人人可读。 3 显然，你们是从基督而来的一封信，是我们工作的成果。这信不是用笔墨写成的，乃是借着永活上帝的灵写成的；不是写在石版上的，而是刻在心版上的。
4 我们靠着基督在上帝面前有这样的确信。 5 我们并不认为自己能够承担什么，我们能够承担全是靠上帝。 6 祂使我们能够担任新约的执事。这新约不是用律法条文立的，而是圣灵的工作，因为律法条文带给人死亡，但圣灵赐给人生命。
新约的荣耀
7 这最终带来死亡、刻在石版上的律法条文的事工尚且有荣耀，甚至使摩西的脸上发出荣光，尽管很快就消逝了，以色列人仍然无法定睛看他， 8 那么圣灵的事工岂不更有荣耀吗？ 9 那定人罪的事工尚且有荣耀，这使人被称为义人的事工岂不更有荣耀吗？ 10 其实先前的荣耀和现今的大荣耀相比，就黯然失色了。 11 那渐渐消逝的尚且有荣耀，这永远长存的更是荣耀无比。
12 我们因为有这极大的盼望，就放胆无惧， 13 不像摩西将帕子蒙在脸上，以免以色列人看见那渐渐消逝的荣光。 14 但以色列人的心刚硬，直到今日，他们每逢读旧约的时候，同样的帕子还在那里，没有揭去。因为只有在基督里，那帕子才能被除去。 15 时至今日，每逢他们读摩西律法的时候，帕子仍然蒙在他们心上。 16 然而，他们一旦归向基督，那帕子就被除去了。 17 主就是那灵，主的灵在哪里，哪里就有自由。 18 我们这些脸上不再蒙着帕子的人，可以像镜子一样反映主的荣光，渐渐变成主的样式，荣上加荣。这都是主的作为，主就是那灵。
2 Corinthians 3

Living Letters
3 Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, like some, letters of recommendation to you or from you? 2 You yourselves are our letter, written on our hearts, known and read by everyone.(A) 3 You show that you are Christ’s letter,(B) delivered[a] by us, not written with ink but with the Spirit of the living God(C)—not on tablets of stone(D) but on tablets of human hearts.[b](E)
Paul’s Competence
4 Such is the confidence we have through Christ before God. 5 It is not that we are competent in[c] ourselves to claim anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God.(F) 6 He has made us competent to be ministers of a new covenant,(G) not of the letter,(H) but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
New Covenant Ministry
7 Now if the ministry that brought death, chiseled in letters on stones, came with glory,(I) so that the Israelites were not able to gaze steadily at Moses’s face because of its glory, which was set aside, 8 how will the ministry of the Spirit not be more glorious? 9 For if the ministry that brought condemnation had glory, the ministry that brings righteousness overflows with even more glory. 10 In fact, what had been glorious is not glorious now by comparison because of the glory that surpasses it. 11 For if what was set aside(J) was glorious, what endures will be even more glorious.
12 Since, then, we have such a hope,(K) we act with great boldness. 13 We are not like Moses, who used to put a veil over his face(L) to prevent the Israelites from gazing steadily until the end[d] of the glory of what was being set aside, 14 but their minds were hardened.(M) For to this day, at the reading of the old covenant,(N) the same veil remains; it is not lifted, because it is set aside only in Christ.(O) 15 Yet still today, whenever Moses is read, a veil lies over their hearts, 16 but whenever a person turns(P) to the Lord, the veil is removed.(Q) 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at[e](R) the glory of the Lord(S) and are being transformed(T) into the same image(U) from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit.[f]
