2 Corinthians 3:8-10
New English Translation

8 how much more glorious will the ministry of the Spirit be?[a] 9 For if there was glory in the ministry that produced condemnation,[b] how much more does the ministry that produces righteousness[c] excel[d] in glory! 10 For indeed, what had been glorious now[e] has no glory because of the tremendously greater glory of what replaced it.[f]
